Abstract
Due to the worldwide growth of energy consumption, analysis of energy issues and the development of energy policy options has become an important issue. In this study, electricity energy consumption of Turkey is predicted by artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) approaches. ABC, a recently proposed swarm based algorithm, models the intelligent foraging behavior of honey bee swarms. ABC algorithm is used to develop linear and quadratic models as well to train artificial neural network models. The proposed approaches predict Turkey’s net electricity energy consumption until 2022 according to inputs from the year 1979 according to three scenarios. The data used in this study is collected from the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MENR) of Turkey and Turkish Statistical Institute.
