Abstract

Electricity price forecasting is a mature research area, with various techniques already developed in recent years to help both generators and retailers hedge against price and load associated risks. This paper aims to add on to the forecasting literature, with emphasis on the importance of making such forecasts transparent to facilitate countries' transitions towards more liberalised retail electricity markets.
