Commodity Price Forecast

ZE Forward Price Views are projected up to 30 years, for on-peak, off-peak and 24-hour wholesale prices, in both real and nominal dollars. We offer price views for:
- Electricity
- Natural Gas
- Coal
- Emission allowances
Electricity Price Forecast
The ZE model is a sophisticated, top-down probabilistic market simulation model that is readily customizable and adaptable in size and scope to any region in North America. The forward price model was designed using the key drivers and fundamental parameters of the electrical power industry in combination with econometric techniques and expert judgment.
To learn more about our approach and methodology see our

Natural Gas Price Forecast
ZE develops mid- and long-term forecasts of natural gas expected prices, using two different modules, which are based on varying sources of information and analytical procedures. The resulting expected prices are then combined and used in Monte-Carlo simulation for the development of a probabilistic forecast.
Coal Price Forecast
ZEPG forecasts long-term price of delivered coal using sophisticated model, which is based on mine-mouth price forecasts, projected costs of delivery and financial market data. To develop regional probabilistic forecasts, ZEPG applies historical deviations and Monte Carlo simulation to the weighted average price of different types of coal delivered into the region.
