load forecasting is a fundamental business problem established since the inception of the electric power industry. the business needs of load forecasting include power systems planning and operations, revenue projection, rate design, energy trading and so forth. many different organizations other than utilities also need load forecasts, such as regulatory commissions, industrial and big commercial customers, banks, trading firms, and insurance companies. over the past 100 plus years, both research efforts and industry practices in this area are primarily on point load forecasting. in the recent decade, due to the increased market competition, aging infrastructure and renewable integration requirements, probabilistic load forecasting is becoming more and more important to energy systems planning and operations. this presentation offers a tutorial review of probabilistic load forecasting, including notable techniques, methodologies, evaluation metrics, common misunderstandings and recommended research directions.
