Our areas of work.

Forecast products are offered by subscription; optimisation and software work is planned as a project around the organisation's needs.

  1. Hourly forecasts of system demand, the day-ahead market clearing price, and wind, solar and hydro generation. Day-ahead forecasts are published every morning; intraday products are being prepared to update throughout the market sessions. Accuracy is measured daily against EPİAŞ Transparency data.

Forecast products

For seven products: an hourly forecast-versus-actual comparison of the last 3 days up to yesterday, with the measured error; for solar and wind the error is expressed relative to installed capacity.

Daily WAPE—

Accuracy measurement.

Daily error for the last 30 days, the period average and the best and worst day; measured against EPİAŞ actuals.

WAPE for demand, price and hydro
Weighted absolute percentage error: deviations in low-consumption hours do not overshadow the high-consumption hours. It is a widely used metric in energy markets; lower is better.
The measurement window is stated
Each value is shown with the number of hours and the date range it was measured over; a metric is never published on its own.
Installed-capacity error for solar and wind
Mean absolute error is expressed relative to the product's national installed capacity; every hour of the day is measured. Installed capacity is updated monthly from EPDK and EPİAŞ data.
Actuals come from EPİAŞ
The comparison is made against the official actuals of the EPİAŞ Transparency Platform.

The daily forecasting process.

Data collection, modelling, publication, access and next-day verification; the same sequence runs for every product and plant.

  1. Early morning

    Data collection

    Actual demand and generation and KGÜP/UEVM submissions from the EPİAŞ Transparency Platform; hourly temperature, irradiance and wind forecasts from Open-Meteo; calendar and public holiday information.

  2. Before publication

    Modelling

    Gradient boosting models trained separately for each product produce the 24 hours of the next day. The models are retrained regularly on current data and tested on historical data.

  3. 10:15

    Publication

    Next-day forecasts are published in the dashboard; the daily email report is sent at the same time. Plant-level forecasts are part of the same publication, as a separate series per plant.

  4. Throughout the day

    Access

    CSV export; automatic transfer to ETRM systems, Excel or in-house models with an API key. Web, mobile and integrations use the same data contract.

  5. Next day

    Verification

    As actuals arrive from EPİAŞ, the deviation of each hour and the WAPE of the day are calculated; the result is published in the dashboard and in the accuracy history.

Plant-level generation forecast.

A model specific to your organisation's solar, wind or hydro plant. For licensed plants, actual generation is taken from EPİAŞ; for unlicensed plants, the organisation uploads the generation history.

  1. 1

    Application

    A licensed plant is selected from the EPİAŞ catalogue; for an unlicensed plant, the location, installed capacity and generation history are submitted.

  2. 2

    Approval

    Our team reviews the application and the data; after commercial approval it moves on to setup.

  3. 3

    Setup

    The model is trained on historical generation data and backtested; the result is reported in the dashboard.

  4. Active

    A plant-specific 24-hour forecast is published every morning; accuracy is updated as actual generation arrives.

API integration.

All data in the dashboard is also available through the REST API; with a key it is transferred to ETRM, Excel or in-house models.
