Measuring Dependence Between Electricity Consumption and Economic Indicators Via Copulas: Turkish Case

2018-01-01
This paper implements copulas to identify the dependence structure between electricity consumption and its cofounding indicators. To achieve this, Turkish electricity demand, its economic and sectoral indicators are taken into account. As a first step, bivariate copulas are used to identify the best fitting copula and the degree of the dependence. Thereafter, multivariate model is established using vine copulas using highly correlated variables. The empirical results confirm the added value of the proposed approach in determining numerous tail properties. We indicate that the copulas are useful to underline, especially, the tail properties of indicators in the market for decision makers.

The optimal reservoir configuration for maximum productivity index of gas reservoirs depleted by horizontal wells under Darcy and non-Darcy flow conditions
Al-Rbeawi, Salam (2018-01-01)
A new approach for estimating productivity index of horizontal wells depleting finite gas reservoirs is introduced in this paper. This approach focuses on using reservoir configurations and anisotropy as well as wellbore length for calculating productivity index at pseudo-steady state conditions when production time is no longer affects reservoir performance. The paper also aims to determine the optimal reservoir configurations that could give the maximum productivity index.
Measuring cost efficiency of Turkish commercial banks : a stochastic frontier approach
Güneş, Hakan; Yıldırım Kasap, Dilem; Department of Economics (2013)
This study examines cost efficiency of Turkish commercial banks through a stochastic frontier approach where the inefficiency effects are approximated by a set of bank-specific variables. Empirical results reveal that intermediation ratio, deposits divided by liabilities and labor per branch are the main determinants of the inefficiency of Turkish commercial banks. Moreover, it is observed that cost efficiency of all commercial banks has an upward trend until 2008 and it takes 10 quarters to recover from th...
Heterogeneous Effects of Financial Indicators on Firms' Exports: Evidence from Turkish Manufacturing Firms
Şahin, Yavuz Selim; Akbostancı Özkazanç, Elif; Department of Economics (2022-12-21)
Using an extensive firm-level database that combines customs and balance sheets data, this paper investigates the heterogeneity in the effects of financial indicators on the exports of Turkish manufacturing firms. The panel data estimations for the period 2010-2020 suggest that improvement in the firm-level financial indicators have stimulating effects on the firms’ exports. More specifically, it is found that profitability and liquidity ratios are positively associated with firms’ exports, while increases ...
Score Based Non-Technical Loss Detection Algorithm for Electricity Distribution Networks
Terciyanli, Erman; Eryigit, Emre; Emre, Tamer; Caliskan, Sevil (2017-04-21)
This paper proposes a score based computational technique for the detection of non-technical losses in electricity distribution networks. The methodology is comprised of three steps. In the first one, a score is assigned to each meter number considering the area that customers live. In second step, a Cmeans-based fuzzy clustering is applied to find consumers with similar consumption profiles. Then, a fuzzy classification is performed with fuzzy membership matrices. Afterwards, the Euclidean distances betwee...
Analysis of an inventory system under backorder correlated deterministic demand and geometric supply process
Argon, NT; Gullu, R; Erkip, N (2001-05-06)
In this article we propose a single item, periodic review model that investigates the effects of changes in the demand process that occur after stockout realizations. We investigate a system where the demands in successive periods are deterministic but affected by the backorder realizations. In order to capture the effects of changes in the demand process we use a geometric type supply availability. We analytically derive the necessary components for obtaining profit related performance measures and provide...
