Market clearing price prediction using improved neural network with genetic algorithm in Iranian day ahead market for competitiveness clusterings

In The deregulation in power market is lead to competition among market participant to increase efficiency. In electricity market generation is the best candidate for iterance in competition to improve productivity and efficiency in resource allocation and offer lowest price by highest quality will be yielded. In the pool-based electricity market, every Genco submits a bidding price in ten step offer to the Independent System Operator (ISO) for every hour of the next day. The ISO uses the bidding price and forecasting demand to determine the MCP. The resulting spot price series exhibit strong seasonality at the annual, weekly and daily levels, as well as mean reversion, very high volatility and abrupt, short-lived and generally unanticipated extreme price changes known as spikes or jumps. So in this article we cluster time horizon in three cluster then we applied improved neural network by genetic algorithm for all clusters. In compare of normal neural network, results of our model are more better by 95% Accuracy.
