Abstract
In this paper we present the application of techniques for Correlation Dimension Estimation to estimate the model order of electrical load data. Based on a correct model order, appropriately structured neural nets for load forecasting were designed. Satisfactory results were obtained in one-hour-ahead electrical load prediction on a six months benchmark from an electric utility in the USA.
