Considering the recent demand of China’s electricity market, a short-term load forecasting software system for power system was developed. The system is divided into three independent modules: raw data maintenance, load forecasting and forecast result processing. In the database design, the method of regular dumping is adopted to control the amount of data. The system provides a rich model library, each model can be predicted individually, or several models can be selected for comprehensive prediction. The load prediction results of a county-level power system in Henan Province show that the system can achieve satisfactory prediction effect.
