Research Focus
Volatilities on electricity exchanges
There are diverse topics in the field of energy research. In particular, the price and the generation of electricity define frequently investigated research topics. The main objective of the research project is to analyze the volatility of power exchanges. There are many possibilities referring to electricity supply that can be traded on the “EPEX SPOT“. For example per Day-Ahead-auction or the continuous intraday-market. On this occasion, the volatility is a measure for the variation of the prices. The measure provides important information for the market participants since it is a measure of price risk. Especially, there are numerous (positive as well as negative) price spikes on the continuous intraday-market. Usually, they occur when the generation of renewable energies reaches extremely low or high levels. For various reasons, we cannot transfer the measure of the classical financial volatility to the electricity market right away. Therefore, the first goal of this research project is to answer the question how we can measure the risk on the continuous intraday-market. For this, we construct and compare different risk measures, which consider the special features of the continuous intraday-market. In the following, we analyze the influence of renewable energies, given by solar and wind energy, on the risk measures.
