Integrating Iot Devices and Deep Learning for Renewable Energy in Big Data System
U.P.B. Sci. Bull., Series C , Vol. 82, Iss. 3, 2020 ISSN 2286-3540 INTEGRATING IOT DEVICES AND DEEP LEARNING FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY IN BIG DATA SYSTEM Med Anouar NAOUI1, Brahim LEJDEL2, Mouloud AYAD3 Renewable energy use has increased rapidly in recent years. As a result, it has attracted many researchers and industries to provide safe and sustainable energy to customers. However, the high use of renewable energy has caused many problems in its forecasts. To provide energy forecasts, data was collected from wind turbines or solar panels. Several approaches have been proposed for renewable energy forecasting, but they do not take into account Big data characteristics. These approaches focus only on data analysis and are limited. This paper proposes an ideal architecture that integrates IoT technology, Big Data system and Deep Learning paradigm for energy forecasting. The proposed architecture is divided into four layers: renewable energy layer, Big Data layer, IoT layer and Deep Learning layer. Renewable energy data are Big, thus a Big data layer is proposed for the storage and processing of renewable energy data. Then, the Deep Learning layer is used to predict renewable energy. A distributed LSTM algorithm is implemented and compared with three different models to illustrate the predictability and optimization of execution time in the proposed system. Finally, IoT technology is used to facilitate the acquisition of weather, wind or solar data. Keywords: Deep learning, Big data, Internet of things, Distributed long short term memory. 1. Introduction The use of renewable energy resources is increasing rapidly worldwide. In 2017, renewable energy consummation represented up to 17% of total global energy consumption. -

The ground-mounted installa- tion is a challenging one, also for people like Matthias Wagner, not acquainted with such elevations. Wagner is the Executive Director of Global Channel Sales Management in the Smart PV Business Unit at Huawei. In this position, he has to travel to countries around the globe to meet customers and colleagues to handle a wide variety of PV projects. When we met with Wagner in March, he highlighted how such a project poses challenges for the equipment used, be it the solar panels or the inverters. -
