The model is based on hourly data for the period 2017-2021 using electricity prices. The model's Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) value is 3.14, and the explanatory power R2 is 0.94. Since this model also considers the subgroups in the database, it can make price predictions for the pandemic period. To test the robustness and consistency of the model, twelve RNN-based models were re-estimated with the same data set. Although all models successfully predict the prices, The TEDSE Model performs better than the others. This study will be especially beneficial to electricity market players and policymakers. In further studies, the TEDSE model can be used for price prediction in intraday energy markets. This study's most important contribution is methodology innovation, using the Transformer Encoder-Decoder with Self-Attention (TEDSE) model for the first time to estimate electricity prices.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDeep learningElectricity price predictionTransformer encoder-decoder with self-atten-tionTurkish electricity marketArticleQ1Q1224WOS:000980858900001
