As a consequence of increasing wind power penetration level, it will be a big challenge to control and operate the power system because of the inherent uncertainty of the wind energy. One of the ways to deal with the wind power variability is to predict it accurately and reliably. The traditional point forecasting-based technique cannot notably solve the uncertainty in power system operation. In order to compute the probabilistic forecasting, which yields information on the uncertainty of wind power, a novel hybrid intelligent method that incorporates the wavelet transform, neural network (NN), and improved krill herd optimization algorithm (IKHOA), is used in this paper. Also, the extreme learning machine is exerted to train NN and calculates point forecasts, and IKHOA is applied to forecast the noise variance. The robust method called bootstrap is regarded to create prediction intervals and calculate the model uncertainty. The efficiency of proposed forecasting engine is evaluated by usage of wind power data from the Alberta, Canada. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
