2 2 / 28 Motivation Dependence between S and Q can be modeled by a correlation but it does not take into account dependence in extreme events. However, spikes can be caused by high renewable production. This dependence can have an impact on the distribution of the incomes. General problem : modeling and estimating the dependency between extreme events and exogenous variable.

5 5 / 28 Statistical setting We observe an Itô continuous semimartingale on [, T ] X t = t t µ s ds + σ s dw s. We observe a Poisson process (N t t T with stochastic intensity (λ t t T. We assume that λ t = nq (X t, t [, T ] ; n corresponds to the asymptotic. Objectives Estimate q on a given interval I and evaluate its performance relatively to the L 2 (I norm, Develop a test in order to determine if q belongs to some parametric family on I.

6 Local time of X Theorem (from Barlow and Yor (1982; Revuz and Yor (213; Yen and Yor (213 Let us assume that : (i σ s σ > a.s. and E (ii X t = t. ( T µs ds + sup t σudwu t [,T ] < or Then, there exists a function defined on R [, T ] and denoted (x, t lt x verifying (i an occupation time formula t f (Xs ds = R f (x lx t dx for any measurable function f on Ω R, ( l x T (ii E sup lt x x R < and (iii x lt x is continuous on R under (i and has one point of discontinuity under (ii. measures the time spent by X around the point x before time T = must be large enough to estimate q at point x. We work on D (I, ν = {ω Ω, inf x I lx T (ω νt I }, ν (, 1]. 6 / 28

We define the local polynomial estimator ˆq h = U T ( ˆθ h with Theorem ˆθ h = argmin θ R m+1 2 n θt T T ( + θ T Xs x U h ( Xs x U h ( U T Xs x h K h (X s x 1 Xs IdN s K h (X s x 1 Xs Ids θ. On D (I, ν, if there exists > such that K is bounded from below by a constant > on [, ], ˆq h is well defined on I for h 2 3 I. Kernel estimator case (m = : ˆq h (x = 1 n T K h (X s x 1 Xs IdN s T K h (X s x 1 Xs Ids. 7 / 28

8 8 / 28 Bandwidth selection We want to minimize E ( q ˆq h 2 I D (I, ν w.r.t. h. Use of the method of Lacour et al. (216 in the context of i.i.d observations and density estimation. When h min = min H, the bias q h q 2 I q h q hmin 2 I. = An unbiased estimator of the bias is ˆB h = ˆq h ˆq hmin 2 I + bias correction term. An unbiased estimator of the variance (kernel estimator case is ˆV h = 1 T n 2 I K h (X s x 1 Xs I ( T 2 dxdn s. K h (X u x 1 Xu Idu We choose the bandwidth ĥ = argmin h H (ˆBh + κ ˆV h, κ >.

12 12 / 28 Resume We propose : a model taking into account the dependence of the extreme events with an exogenous variable, a local polynomial estimator of the intensity of jumps as a function of the exogenous covariate which is optimal in the minimax sense over the Hölder classes, a way to choose optimally the bandwidth of the estimator in a non asymptotic framework with an oracle inequality, a test to determine if the intensity as a function of the exogenous covariate belongs to a parametric family, which can be useful for operational purposes.

13 13 / 28 Outline 1 Dependence between a jump process and a continuous time exogenous factor 2 A joint model for the German electricity spot price and wind penetration index (in collaboration with Almut Veraart

14 14 / 28 Recall of the problem Spikes of S can be caused by high renewable production Q. Need to model this dependence to capture all the risks. Objectives Use of Wind penetration index = wind energy production electricity load Propose a joint model of electricity spot price and wind penetration index with dependence in the extremes.

15 15 / 28 Data The data sets are considered from the 1/1/212 to the 31/12/216 and are the following ones : The German and Austrian hourly electricity spot prices (from the day-ahead auction, the German and Austrian hourly load data, the German and Austrian hourly wind energy production data. The data has been aggregated over the four German transmission system operators 5 Hertz Transmission, Amprion, Tennet TSO and EnBW Transportnetze and the Austrian transmission system operator APG.

16 16 / 28 Model S t = Γ 1,t + X 1,t + K i e β(t T i N t i=1 WP t = expit ( Γ 2,t + X 2,t observed on a regular grid with steps n where expit (x = 1 1+e x, Γ 1 and Γ 2 are seasonality functions, X 1 and X 2 are centered continuous stochastic processes, N t is a Poisson process with stochastic intensity λ t, K i and T i are the sizes and the times of the jumps. β is the speed of the mean reversion of the spikes and is large. Two structures of dependence : a constant correlation between X 1 and X 2, the intensity λ t = q (WP t.

17 17 / 28 Jump detection We consider the method of Deschatre et al. (218 to detect spikes when β is large. There is a spike in ((i 1 n, i n ] iif n i S = S i n S (i 1 n > 5ˆσ.49 n n i S n i+1 S < and where ˆσ 2 is the multipower variation of order 2. We find 84 positive jumps and 3 negative jumps. They propose a consistent estimator for β : we find year 1. The size of the jumps are estimated with n i S at a time of a jump and the empirical distribution is considered in our model.

19 Intensity process modeling Positive and negative jumps are distinguished with one intensity function for each, λ t = q (WP t and λ + t = q + (WP t.

Confidence intervals are computed with classical bootstrap methods.

25 25 / 28 Conclusion We proposed a model of dependence, simple enough to understand and to simulate, and a method to estimate it in an optimal way. This model is adapted for the modeling of the electricity spikes and allows to add a dependency component in the model of Deschatre et al. (218. It confirms statistically that high wind penetration level has an impact on the negative spikes frequency. Taking into account this dependence has a strong impact on the different risk measures of a simple contract, and can not be neglected.
