During the recent years, several techniques have been used for electricity consumption forecasting in order to accurately predict the future demand. Although there are several forecasting techniques, selection of the most appropriate one is of paramount importance. In this study, three different grey forecasting models are built and used for modeling and predicting yearly net electricity consumption in Turkey. Additionally, these three models are compared to find the best model by using performance criteria. The best approach, Nonhomogeneous Discrete Grey Model (NDGM), is employed to forecast electricity consumption from 2014 to 2030. In addition, a comparison is made with recent studies proving the grey model (GM) proposed by this study delivers better forecasting performance.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDiscrete Grey ModelElectricity Consumption ForecastingEnergy Demand Of TurkeyGrey PredictionGrey TheoryArticle173260267Q4WOS:000396873200010N/A2-s2.0-85014699181
