Probabilistic Weather Forecasts for Energy Trading

1 / 5

Probabilistic forecasts provide distributions of possible outcomes instead of single values, so traders can quantify uncertainty for wind ramps, load balancing, and hedging.

2 / 5

Ensemble systems run multiple perturbed simulations, then use the spread between members as a proxy for forecast uncertainty, evaluated with CRPS rather than RMSE.

3 / 5

Probability of precipitation (PoP) and other threshold-based exceedance probabilities come directly from ensemble member counts and feed trading and dispatch decisions.

4 / 5

Key use cases include wind-ramp probabilities above 60% as day-ahead hedging triggers, cloud-cover exceedance for intraday solar rebalancing, and temperature tails for gas and load demand risk.

5 / 5
