Traditionally, subarea load forecasting divides the area by the administrative region directly, without considering that the features of load increasing has great difference even in the same region. The method of fuzzy clustering is used to divide the area by the similar feature of load increasing. The new division is promising to improve the result of subarea load forecasting.
