Stochastic Modelling And Pricing Of Electricity And Related Markets Contracts With Local Stochastic Delayed And Jumped Volatilities

Handbook Of Energy Finance: Theories, Practices And Simulations

Modeling the dynamics of energy markets has become a challenging task. The intensification of their financialization since 2004 had made them more complex but also more integrated with other tradable asset classes. More importantly, their large and frequent fluctuations in terms of both prices and volatility, particularly in the aftermath of the global financial crisis 2008-2009, posit difficulties for modeling and forecasting energy price behavior and are primary sources of concerns for macroeconomic stability and general economic performance.This handbook aims to advance the debate on the theories and practices of quantitative energy finance while shedding light on innovative results and technical methods applied to energy markets. Its primary focus is on the recent development and applications of mathematical and quantitative approaches for a better understanding of the stochastic processes that drive energy market movements. The handbook is designed for not only graduate students and researchers but also practitioners and policymakers.

Stochastic Modelling and Pricing of Electricity and Related Markets' Contracts with Local Stochastic Delayed and Jumped Volatilities

In this paper we study stochastic models for electricity, gas and temperature markets' contracts with delay and jumps. The basic products in these markets are spot, futures and forward contracts, swaps and options written on these. We concentrate our study on pricing of these kind of contracts. We also study optimal control of stochastic differential delay equations (SDDEs) with jumps and its applications in energy markets and economics.
