A transfer function model for volatilities between water inflows and spot prices for Colombian electricity market

Abstract: The electricity generation mix in Colombia is predominantly hydroelectric. Phenomena that could generate extreme hydrology as El Niño or La Niña cause nervousness among electricity generators and therefore, the Electricity Spot Price increases the volatility. In this paper we propose a tra...

Description
Summary:Abstract: The electricity generation mix in Colombia is predominantly hydroelectric. Phenomena that could generate extreme hydrology as El Niño or La Niña cause nervousness among electricity generators and therefore, the Electricity Spot Price increases the volatility. In this paper we propose a transfer function model between the volatilities of water inows and energy price based on models of SARFIMA-GARCH type. The model for Energy Prices incorporates seasonality and long memory. The transfer model confirms that the hydrology regimen influences the price and the GARCH part of the price model can incorporate the volatility of water inflows as an exogenous variable. It is important to note that, although the spot price volatility is influenced by other variables, we only analyze the influence of water inows.
