This was the capstone project done at the Data Science Bootcamp @neuefische. This project has been developed in 4 weeks in November 2021 by Aaron Holstein (Git | LinkedIn), Katrin Mulinski (Git | LinkedIn), Laurent Hartmann (Git | LinkedIn) and Ravi Tripathi (Git | LinkedIn).
Imbalance energy is the energy fed into or extracted from the power transmission net by the transmission net operator to avoid grid instability and to keep the balance between demand and supply. Our goal is to forecast this highly volatile price for the next several hours to be able to make purchase and sale decisions to avoid losing money in case additional energy is needed.
