As distributed PV capacity expands rapidly, its inherent variability and partial observability create operational challenges for secure and stable distribution-network operation. Therefore, accurate PV power identification becomes a cornerstone for optimizing flexible interconnection power regulation strategies. To address the limitations of existing model-driven and data-driven methods in capturing nonlinear features and generalization capabilities, this paper proposes an unsupervised identification model named IHRTHAVOA-BP, based on the Improved Hybrid Red-tailed Hawk and African Vultures Optimization Algorithm (IHRTHAVOA). By integrating the Red-tailed Hawk Algorithm (RTH) and African Vultures Optimization Algorithm (AVOA), the model employs Circle chaotic mapping for population initialization, a Composite Opposition-based Learning Strategy (COBL) to enhance global search capabilities, and Gaussian mutation to avoid local optima, significantly improving optimization efficiency. Across diverse test functions, simulations show that the proposed model lowers Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) by over 90% relative to traditional BP Neural Networks and single-algorithm optimizers, confirming its superior accuracy in precise power identification.
