We derive risk-neutral option price formulas for plain-vanilla and exotic electricity futures derivatives on the basis of diverse arithmetic multi-factor Ornstein-Uhlenbeck spot price models admitting seasonality. In these setups, we take additional forward-looking knowledge on future price...

We derive risk-neutral option price formulas for plain-vanilla temperature futures derivatives on the basis of several multi-factor Ornstein-Uhlenbeck temperature models which allow for seasonality in the mean level and volatility. Our main innovation consists in an incorporation of omnipresent...

We extend the arithmetic multi-factor electricity spot price model proposed by Benth, Kallsen & Meyer-Brandis by adding stochastic mean-level processes to their model and by taking additional information on the future behavior of these mean-level processes into account. The available...

In this paper, we present a new precipitation model based on a multi-factor Ornstein-Uhlenbeck approach of pure-jump type. In this setup, we derive a representation for the related precipitation swap price process and infer its risk-neutral time dynamics. We further deduce a pricing formula for...

With view on global warming and the ongoing climate change, weather derivatives play an increasingly important role for many companies and financial investors, as they constitute useful hedging instruments against disadvantageous weather conditions. In this paper, we present a new temperature...
