<p>Electricity price forecasting is a hypercritical issue due to the involvement of consumers and producers in electricity markets. Price forecasting plays an important role in planning and managing economic operations related with the electrical power (bidding, trading) and other decisions related with load shedding and generation rescheduling. It is also useful for optimization in electrical energy trade. This paper explores an interbreed technique based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) and linear regression to predict the day ahead electricity price using historical data as a raw insert. Different 27 linear regression models are formed to create initial framework for forecasting engine. Comparison of the performance of different forecasting engines is carried out on the basis of error indices namely Mean Square Error (MSE), Sum Square Error (SSE) and other conventional error indices. A detailed explanation of linear regression system based model is presented and simulation results exhibit that the proposed learning method is able to forecast electricity price in an effective manner.</p>

AbstractDue to focal liberality in electricity market projection, researchers try to suggest powerful and successful price forecasting algorithms. Since, the accurate information of future makes best way for market participants so as to increases their profit using bidding strategies, here suggests an algorithm for electricity price anticipation. To cover this goal, separate an algorithm into three steps, namely; pre-processing, learning and tuning. The pre-processing part consists of Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) to analyze price signal to high and low frequency subseries and Variational Mutual Information (VMI) to select valuable input data in order to helps the learning part and decreases the computation burden. Owing to the learning part, a new Least squares support vector machine based self-adaptive fuzzy kernel (LSSVM-SFK) is proposed to extract best map pattern from input data. A new modified HBMO is introduced to optimally set LSSVM-SFK variables such as bias, weight, etc. To improve the performances of HBMO, two modifications are proposed that has high stability in HBMO. Suggested forecasting algorithm is examined on electricity markets that has acceptable efficiency than other models.

The intraday electricity markets are continuous trade platforms for each hour of the day and have specific characteristics. These markets have shown an increasing number of transactions due to the requirement of close to delivery electricity trade. Recently, intraday electricity price market research has seen a rapid increase in a number of works for price prediction. However, most of these works focus on the features and descriptive statistics of the intraday electricity markets and overlook the comparison of different available models. In this paper, we compare a variety of methods including neural networks to predict intraday electricity market prices in Turkish intraday market. The recurrent neural networks methods outperform the classical methods. Furthermore, gated recurrent unit network architecture achieves the best results with a mean absolute error of 0.978 and a root mean square error of 1.302. Moreover, our results indicate that day-ahead market price of the corresponding hour is a key feature for intraday price forecasting and estimating spread values with day-ahead prices proves to be a more efficient method for prediction.

The Iberian Market for Electricity resulted from a cooperation process developed by the Portuguese and Spanish administrations, aiming to promote the integration of the electrical systems of both countries. This common market consists of organized markets or power exchanges, and non-organised markets where bilateral over-the-counter trading takes place with or without brokers. Within this scenario, electricity price forecasts have become fundamental to the process of decision-making and strategy development by market participants. The unique characteristics of electricity prices such as non-stationarity, non-linearity and high volatility make this task very difficult. For this reason, instead of a simple time forecast, market participants are more interested in a causal forecast that is essential to estimate the uncertainty involved in the price. This work focuses on modelling the impact of various explanatory variables on the electricity price through a multiple linear regression analysis. The quality of the estimated models obtained validates the use of statistical or causal methods, such as the Multiple Linear Regression Model, as a plausible strategy to achieve causal forecasts of electricity prices in medium and long-term electricity price forecasting. From the evaluation of the electricity price forecasting for Portugal and Spain, in the year of 2017, the mean absolute percentage errors (MAPE) were 9.02% and 12.02%, respectively. In 2018, the MAPE, evaluated for 9 months, for Portugal and Spain equals 7.12% and 6.45%, respectively.

Daily electricity price forecasting plays an essential role in electrical power system operation and planning. The accuracy of forecasting electricity price can ensure that consumers minimize their electricity costs and make producers maximize their profits and avoid volatility. However, the fluctuation of electricity price depends on other commodities and there is a very complicated randomization in its evolution process. Therefore, in recent years, although large number of forecasting methods have been proposed and researched in this domain, it is very difficult to forecast electricity price with only one traditional model for different behaviors of electricity price. In this paper, we propose an optimized combined forecasting model by ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO) based on the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model and support vector machine (SVM) to improve the forecasting accuracy. First, both GARCH model and SVM are developed to forecast short-term electricity price of New South Wales in Australia. Then, ACO algorithm is applied to determine the weight coefficients. Finally, the forecasting errors by three models are analyzed and compared. The experiment results demonstrate that the combined model makes accuracy higher than the single models.
