Functional Time series (FTS) Forecasting of Electricity Consumption in Pakistan
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electricity is one of the most important sources for economic and social development of a country. The growth in energy consumption is basically linked with the growth in economy. Energy demand increases due to different reasons, including higher Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, higher per capita consumption, the population growth and rapid development of industrial & commercial sectors. In this study, the monthly electricity consumption for the period of January 1990 through December 2011 in Pakistan is analysed using functional time series (FTS) technique. Electricity consumption model reveals a significant trend due to socio-economic factors. The monthly behavior of forecast values reveals that the electricity consumption is more for summer season and this demand will be increased in future. Forecast model and the forecast values show that the electricity consumption is increasing with the passage of time. The growing energy consumption in the country may be due to economic growth, urbanization process in the region, population growth and industrialization.

Forecasting Electricity Consumption for Pakistan
Now-a-days, different sectors of the economy are being significantly affected by the electricity variable. In this research, we analyzed the monthly electricity consumption in Pakistan for the period of January 1990 through December 2011, using linear and non linear modeling techniques. They include ARIMA, Seasonal ARIMA (SARIMA) and ARCH/GARCH models. Electricity consumption model reveals a si...
متن کاملForecast of Iran’s Electricity Consumption Using a Combined Approach of Neural Networks and Econometrics
Electricity cannot be stored and needs huge amount of capital so producers and consumers pay special attention to predict electricity consumption. Besides, time-series data of the electricity market are chaotic and complicated. Nonlinear methods such as Neural Networks have shown better performance for predicting such kind of data. We also need to analyze other variables affecting electricity c...
متن کاملSome New Methods for Prediction of Time Series by Wavelets
Extended Abstract. Forecasting is one of the most important purposes of time series analysis. For many years, classical methods were used for this aim. But these methods do not give good performance results for real time series due to non-linearity and non-stationarity of these data sets. On one hand, most of real world time series data display a time-varying second order structure. On th...
متن کاملDay-ahead Price Forecasting of Electricity Markets by a New Hybrid Forecast Method
Energy price forecast is the key information for generating companies to prepare their bids in the electricity markets. However, this forecasting problem is complex due to nonlinear, non-stationary, and time variant behavior of electricity price time series. Accordingly, in this paper a new strategy is proposed for electricity price forecast. The forecast strategy includes Wavelet Transform (WT...
