YUI: Day-ahead Electricity Price Forecasting Using Invariance Simplified Supply and Demand Curve

YUI: Day-ahead Electricity Price Forecasting Using Invariance Simplified Supply and Demand Curve

arXiv:2405.14893v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In day-ahead electricity market, it is crucial for all market participants to have access to reliable and accurate price forecasts for their decision-making processes. Forecasting methods currently utilized in industrial applications frequently neglect the underlying mechanisms of price formation, while economic research from the perspective of supply and demand have stringent data collection requirements, making it difficult to apply in actual markets. Observing the characteristics of the day-ahead electricity market, we introduce two invariance assumptions to simplify the modeling of supply and demand curves. Upon incorporating the time invariance assumption, we can forecast the supply…
