## Abstract (arXiv)

Reliable forecasting of renewable energy generation is a foundational requirement for grid stability energy trading battery scheduling and carbon aware operational planning Solar and wind resources are inherently intermittent their output fluctuates with cloud cover wind speed atmospheric turbulence seasonal patterns and local terrain The proliferation of IoT and edge devices spanning smart meters inverters anemometers pyranometers weather stations and grid interface sensors has created an unprecedented volume of real time operational data that conventional forecasting pipelines are ill equipped to exploit fully This review investigates how large language model LLM agents can enhance renewable energy forecasting by integrating heterogeneous sensor streams weather API data historical generation records grid constraints and contextual reasoning into unified decision support workflows We survey classical forecasting methods statistical time series models deep learning architectures physics hybrid approaches and emerging LLM agent frameworks for explanation uncertainty communication and operator guidance A six layer taxonomy is proposed covering data acquisition preprocessing feature engineering model inference uncertainty estimation and natural language reporting The review identifies twelve open challenges spanning real time deployment model drift under distribution shift uncertainty quantification hallucination control in LLM agents interoperability of edge hardware and integration with energy management systems The paper concludes by recommending a research agenda centred on open benchmarks physics informed LLM grounding and federated forecasting architectures
