Modelling New Zealand electricity prices from a risk management perspective

Abstract

A direct approach is taken to modelling New Zealand electricity prices, in which extreme value theory is used to augment a basic time series model. Despite its simplicity, the resulting model is suitable for answering fundamental questions of interest to risk managers, who might not find it worthwhile to apply a more sophisticated and complex approach to statistical modelling.
