ANALYSING AND FORECASTING EUROPEAN UNION ENERGY DATA

The incessantly growing demand for energy consumption and the significance of the availability of sustainable energy for achieving long term economic growth defines the importance of forecasting energy statistics. This paper analyses and forecasts actual energy consumption data for EU-27 nations using both parametric and nonparametric time series forecasting techniques. Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) is adopted as the nonparametric time series analysis and forecasting technique and the results from SSA are compared with ARIMA, which is a parametric forecasting technique.
