简介:
Energy markets, in particular, electricity markets grow rapidly as a result of the restructuring of electric power industries around the world. An accurate electricity price model is crucial for both asset valuation and risk management applications. We propose alternative jump-diffusion and regime-switching models that capture realistic aspects of electricity spot prices including mean-reversion, jumps and stochastic volatility.We compute the prices of various electricity derivatives by applying Fourier transform methods and show how these prices vary under different modeling assumptions.We illustrate an application of valuing a power generation asset as real options under the proposed jump-diffusion electricity price models.
