Abstract

Electricity demand and economic growth are closely correlated. Electricity is an important means of production and subsistence and plays an important role in the national economy system. Accurate electricity demand forecasting results could provide the basis for the power grid planning and construction and therefore has important social and economic benefits. In this paper, a long-term electricity demand forecasting model that contains six kinds of Agent is proposed based on multi-agent technology. The model is validated by the electricity consumption data of 2011-2014. Then the industry-wide electricity demand forecasting results from 2015 to 2025 are obtained. Through case study, the results change affected by economic policy is studied. The results show that the electricity demand will increase under loose monetary policy.
