Abstract

Grey theory deals with systems that are characterized by poor information or for which information is lacking. This study presents an improved grey GM (1, 1) model, using a technique that combines residual modification with Markov Chain model. We use energy consumption and supply of Iran to test the accuracy of proposed model. The results show that the Markov Chain residual modification model achieves reliable and precise results. Keywords: Grey Forecasting Model; Markov Chain; Energy SystemJEL Classifications: C15; C53; C63
