Electricity Spot Price Modelling with a View towards Extreme Spike Risk
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sums of Lévy-driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes seem appropriate for modelling electricity spot price data. In this paper we present a new estimation method with particular emphasis on capturing the high peaks, which is one of the stylized features of such data. After introducing our method we show it at work for the EEX Phelix Base electricity price index. We also present a small simulation study to show the performance of our estimation procedure.

Multi-agent stochastic simulation for the electricity spot market price
After the Great Recession of 2008-2009, many mathematical and econometric models used in economy have received a lot of criticism, since they were not able to predict the emergence of the asset bubble in the U. S. housing market. As a result of this, econometricians have increasingly turned towards seeking explanations to what happened in the psychological element in market traders’ actions. Th...
متن کاملModeling electricity spot prices - Combining mean-reversion, spikes and stochastic volatility
Starting with the liberalization of electricity trading, this market grew rapidly over the last decade. However, while spot and future markets are rather liquid nowadays, option trading is still limited. One of the potential reasons for this is that the spot price process of electricity is still puzzling researchers and practitioners. In this paper, we propose an approach to model spot prices t...
متن کاملNCER Working Paper Series Forecasting Spikes in Electricity Prices
In many electricity markets, retailers purchase electricity at an unregulated spot price and sell to consumers at a heavily regulated price. Consequently the occurrence of extreme movements in the spot price represents a major source of risk to retailers and the accurate forecasting of these extreme events or price spikes is an important aspect of effective risk management. Traditional approach...
متن کاملFutures pricing in electricity markets based on stable CARMA spot models
In recent years, electricity markets throughout the world have undergone massive changes due to deregulations. Extreme price volatility has forced producers and wholesale consumers to hedge not only against volume risk but also against price movements. Consequently, statistical modeling and estimation of electricity prices are an important issue for the risk management of electricity markets. W...
متن کاملA Jump Diffusion Model for Spot Electricity Prices
In this paper we demonstrate the efficacy of a stochastic modelling approach involving both diffusion and a jump processes to describe the evolution of spot electricity prices in New South Wales. The model allows a deterministic time trend component and an unobserved process driven by both time varying volatility and occasional jumps. The structure allows us to cast the problem in a state space...
