Grid-scale fluctuations and forecast error in wind power
Wind powerfluctuations at the turbine and farm scales are generally not expected to be correlated over large distances.When power fromdistributed farms feeds the electrical grid,fluctuations from various farms are expected to smooth out. Using data from the Irish grid as a representative example, we analyze wind power fluctuations entering an electrical grid.We find that not only are grid-scale...
متن کاملAnalyst Forecast Dispersion and Aggregate Stock Returns
This paper shows a positive relation between analyst forecast dispersion and future aggregate stock returns, significant and robust. The innovations in forecast dispersions are negatively associated with contemporaneous aggregate returns and changes in discount rates. Decomposing forecast dispersion into “uncertainty” and “information asymmetry” components, I find that the “uncertainty” compone...
متن کاملA General Forecast-error Taxonomy
We consider the sources of forecast errors and their consequences in an evolving economy subject to structural breaks,forecasting from mis-specified, data-based models. A model-free taxonomy of forecast errors highlights that deterministic shifts are a major cause of systematic forecast failure. Other sources seem to pose fewer problems. The taxonomy embeds several previous model-based taxonomi...
متن کاملAdaptive Observation Strategies for Forecast Error Minimization
Using a scenario of multiple mobile observing platforms (UAVs) measuring weather variables in distributed regions of the Pacific, we are developing algorithms that will lead to improved forecasting of high-impact weather events. We combine technologies from the nonlinear weather prediction and planning/control communities to create a close link between model predictions and observed measurement...
متن کاملforecast error analysis of state tax revenues in iran
in this paper, forecasting error for state tax revenues is assessed. for this purpose, using the regression equation, statistical index, and mean percent error, root mean square error, mean absolute percent error and error analysis of tile inequality coefficients are applied on anticipated revenue from taxes on legal entities, income taxes, wealth tax, taxes on imports and taxes on consumption ...
