摘要

The carbon emissions allowance trading market regulates greenhouse gas emissions through economic means. This study proposes a hybrid model that combines Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) with machine learning to forecast volatility in the European Union (EU) carbon emissions allowance trading market. The model addresses the challenges posed by the non-stationary and nonlinear characteristics of the series, effectively decomposes the time series, selects the optimal forecasting model for each intrinsic mode function (IMF), and reconstructs the results. The combined model is applied to forecast the volatility of EU carbon emissions allowance futures. The empirical analysis shows that the hybrid model outperforms Gate Recurrent Unit (GRU) in one-step forecasting, with improvements of 8.32% (MSE), 6.15% (MAE), 0.99% (SMAPE), and 24.69% (RMSPE). The model also excels in multi-step forecasting, demonstrating both stability and accuracy.
