<![CDATA[Through the much defiance facing energy today, it has become necessary to rely on wind energy as a source of unlimited renewable energies. However, energy planning and regulation require wind capacity forecasting, because oscillations of wind speed drastically affect directly power generation. Therefore, several scenarios must be provided to allow for estimating uncertainties. To deal with this problem, this paper exploits the major advantages of the regularized extreme learning machine algorithm (R-ELM) and thus proposes a model for predicting the wind energy generated for the next hour based on the time series of wind speed. The R-ELM is combined with the genetic algorithm which is designed to optimize the most important hyperparameter which is the number of hidden neurons. Thus, the proposed model aims to forecast the average wind power per hour based on the wind speed of the previous hours. The results obtained showed that the proposed method is much better than those reported in the literature concerning the precision of the prediction and the time convergence.]]>
