Regression Models Meet Foundation Models: A Hybrid-AI Approach to Practical Electricity Price Forecasting

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2603.06726v1 Announce Type: new Electricity market prices exhibit extreme volatility, nonlinearity, and non-stationarity, making accurate forecasting a significant challenge. While cutting-edge time series foundation models (TSFMs) effectively capture temporal dependencies, they typically underutilize cross-variate correlations and non-periodic patterns that are essential for price forecasting. Conversely, regression models excel at capturing feature interactions but are limited to future-available inputs, ignoring crucial historical drivers that are unavailable at forecast time.
