The goal of this project is to compare different machine learning algorithms ability to predict wind power output 48 hours in advance from earlier power data and meteorological wind speed predictions. Three different models were tested, two autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models one with exogenous regressors one without and one simple LSTM neural net model. It was found that the ARIMA model with exogenous regressors was the most accurate while also beingrelatively easy to interpret and at 1h 45min 32s had a comparatively short training time. The LSTM was less accurate, harder to interpretand took 14h 3min 5s to train. However the LSTM only took 32.7s to create predictions once the model was trained compared to the 33min13.7s it took for the ARIMA model with exogenous regressors to deploy.Because of this fast deployment time the LSTM might be preferable in certain situations. The ARIMA model without exogenous regressors was significantly less accurate than the other two without significantly improving on the other ARIMA model in any way
