The Electricity Price Prediction of Victoria City Based on Various Regression Algorithms

Precise electricity price prediction is extremely important for all markets especially for families' life conditions because the more demand the more electricity price increases, therefore it is vital to keep the balance between demand and supply. It is crucial to know how much electricity is needed for the future as it has a remarkable impact on economic circumstances. This article proposes four productive methods in order to forecast high-precision results. In the regression algorithms, it is used several methods which are called decision tree regressions, random forest regression, gradient boosting regression, and linear regression algorithms. The dataset is divided into three parts. Training, validation, and test are split into %70, %10, and %20 respectively. The empirical and efficient results show that these methods can be used and reduce errors. The article demonstrates that a novel forecasting model can be designed for the future.
