    Abstract

    The energy transformation industry - electricity and gas, is a capital-intensive business. The investment process - from planning to production - is often very long. The uncertainty about the future adds significantly to costs in the sector, raising the long-run cost of energy to the economy. Overprovision or underprovision of necessary infrastructure can impose significant extra costs on consumers and on the economy as a whole. As a result, forecasts about future medium-term demand are of considerable importance.
