Abstract: In this paper, an efficient hybrid photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting model is proposed to enhance the stability and accuracy of PV power prediction under typical weather conditions. First, the Improved Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (ICEEMDAN) is employed to decompose both meteorological features affecting PV power and the power output itself into intrinsic mode functions. This process enhances the stationarity and noise robustness of input data while reducing the computational complexity of subsequent model processing. To enhance the detail-capturing capability of the Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) model and improve its dynamic response speed and prediction accuracy under abrupt irradiance fluctuations, we integrate a Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) into the BiLSTM architecture. Finally, a Multi-head Self-Attention (MHA) mechanism is employed to dynamically weight multivariate meteorological features, enhancing the model’s adaptive focus on key meteorological factors while suppressing noise interference. The results show that the ICEEMDAN-TCN-BiLSTM-MHA combined model reduces the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) by 78.46% and 78.59% compared to the BiLSTM model in sunny and cloudy scenarios, respectively, and by 58.44% in rainy scenarios. This validates the accuracy and stability of the ICEEMDAN-TCN-BiLSTM-MHA combined model, demonstrating its application potential and promotional value in the field of PV power forecasting.
