Distributed renewable energy, particularly photovoltaics (PV), has expanded rapidly over the
past decade. Distributed PV is located behind the meter and is, thus, invisible to the retailers
and the distribution system operator. This invisible generation, thus, injects additional
uncertainty in the net load and makes it harder to forecast. This paper proposes a data-
driven probabilistic net load forecasting method specifically designed to handle a high

Distributed renewable energy, particularly photovoltaics (PV), has expanded rapidly over the past decade. Distributed PV is located behind the meter and is, thus, invisible to the retailers and the distribution system operator. This invisible generation, thus, injects additional uncertainty in the net load and makes it harder to forecast. This paper proposes a data-driven probabilistic net load forecasting method specifically designed to handle a high penetration of behind-the-meter (BtM) PV. The capacity of BtM PV is first estimated using a maximal information coefficient based correlation analysis and a grid search. The net load profile is then decomposed into three parts (PV output, actual load, and residual) which are forecast individually. Correlation analysis based on copula theory is conducted on the distributions and dependencies of the forecasting errors to generate a probabilistic net load forecast. Case studies based on ISO New England data demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms other approaches, particularly when the penetration of BtM PV is high.
