The electricity market in Spain, as in many European countries, is organized into daily, intraday, and reserve markets. This project aims to predict the supply curves in the Spanish intraday market that have six sessions with different horizons of application, using information from the market itself. To achieve this, we approximate these curves using a non-uniform grid of points and evaluate the quality of these approximations with a weighted distance, both based on empirical market data. We employ neural network models, including multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM), and a Transformer network alongside a naive model for benchmarking. The MLP and CNN models demonstrated significant improvements in predicting these supply curves for the six market sessions.
