Electricity markets feature a non-storable underlying, which implies the break down of traditional cash-and-carry arguments as well as the well-known spot-forward relationship. We introduce the notion of information premium to describe the influence of future information - such as planned power...

In Financial Mathematics, the theory of enlargement of filtrations has been applied to modelling insider trading on stock markets as well as to the informational asymmetry on electricity markets. Still, when it comes to calculating the utility of market agents in either of these additional...

Due to the non-storability of electricity and the resulting lack of arbitrage-based arguments to price electricity forward contracts, these exhibit a significant time-varying risk premium. Using EEX data during the introduction of Emission certificates and the German "Atom Moratorium" we show...

Green Power Purchase Agreements (Green PPAs) are contracts that trade electricity from renewable sources for a fixed price. These contracts have gained importance over the last years and are increasingly traded because they facilitate investment in renewable energy assets in lieu of state...

Due to the non-storability of electricity and the resulting lack of arbitrage-based arguments to price electricity forward contracts, a significant time-varying risk premium is exhibited. Using EEX data during the introduction of emission certificates and the German “Atom Moratorium” we show...

In this paper we present a detailed numerical comparison of three monotone nonparametric kernel regression estimates, which isotonize a nonparametric curve estimator. The first estimate is the classical smoothed isotone estimate of Brunk (1958). The second method has recently been proposed by...
