Probabilistic Low-Voltage Peak Load Forecasting with Time Series Foundation Models Evaluated on Application-Oriented Metrics

Low-voltage load forecasting is an important component in current and future energy systems with a high degree of electrification and decentralized generation. However, current forecasting methods require significant manual effort, often lack uncertainty estimation and proper peak prediction, and they are often not adequately evaluated in terms of grid requirements.

Foundation models for electricity price forecasting and battery arbitrage: Can they replace market-specific forecasting models?

The study evaluates nine foundation model variants against two leading electricity price forecasting benchmarks across Germany, Poland, and Spain for 2021‑2025. Only the TabPFN models consistently outperform the benchmarks in both point and probabilistic accuracy, yet their economic advantage varies with bidding strategy and risk tolerance. The results indicate that foundation models cannot universally replace market‑specific models; their usefulness depends on the chosen architecture and the particular decision problem.

A Ranking Approach for Measuring Calibration

The paper introduces rankECE, a new metric for assessing calibration error in predictive models. Unlike the widely used Expected Calibration Error (ECE), rankECE compares predictions with neighboring probability values, offering theoretical guarantees and empirical evidence that it better approximates ECE than traditional binned methods.

Decision-Aware Training for Sample-Based Generative Models

arXiv:2607. 01171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sample-based generative models are increasingly used for probabilistic forecasting in high-stakes decision settings, yet their training objectives are blind to the decision maker's cost structure.

Proper Calibeating

arXiv:2605. 26703v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The classic concept of "calibrated forecasts" and its more recent refinement, "calibeating," are defined with respect to the standard quadratic scoring rule.
