| Summary: | Concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) is used to obtain cheaper and more stable renewable energy. Methods which predict the energy production of a power system under specific circumstances are highly important to reach the goal of using this system as a part of a bigger one or of making it integrated with the grid. In this paper, the development of a model to predict the energy of a High CPV (HCPV) system using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is described. This system is located at the University of Rabat. The performed experiments show a quick prediction with encouraging results for a very short-term prediction horizon, considering the small amount of data available. These conclusions are based on the processes of obtaining the ANN models and detailed discussion of the results, which have been validated using real data
