Memetic algorithm applied to forecast future natural gas demand of Turkey

Oğuzhan Ahmet ARIK

This paper presents a Memetic Algorithm (MA) algorithm to forecast natural gas consumption of Turkey. Although Turkey has its own resources to produce natural gas for heating, producing electricity and production; the most of the needed natural gas amount is exported from other countries. Therefore approximate forecasting of vital energy sources such as natural gas is extremely significant for countries having an imbalance between export and import values. This paper suggests MA algorithm for forecasting natural gas consumption in billion cubic meters (bcm) for the years between 2018-2030 by u ...Daha fazlası
