With the increasing global focus on renewable energy and the growing proportion of renewable power in the energy mix, accurate forecasting of renewable power demand has become crucial. This study addresses this challenge by proposing a multimodal information fusion approach that integrates time series data and textual data to leverage complementary information from heterogeneous sources. We develop a hybrid predictive model combining CNN and Bi-GRU architectures. First, time series data (e.g., historical power generation) and textual data (e.g., policy documents) are preprocessed through normalization and tokenization. Next, CNNs extract spatial features from both data modalities, which are... More >
