Introduction

Predico is a collaborative forecasting market for the energy sector. Market Owners (system operators, energy companies, asset owners) publish forecasting challenges; Forecasters submit forecasts and compete for performance-based rewards.

Compared with bilateral forecasting contracts, Predico offers:

1. Simplicity and efficiency — buyers reach many forecast providers through one market setup, cutting procurement and supplier-evaluation overhead.
2. Market-based incentives — forecasters are paid on measured performance, which rewards accuracy and continuous improvement.
3. Ensemble forecasting — submissions are combined into a skill-weighted aggregate that balances individual biases and reduces extreme errors.

The result is a transparent forecasting ecosystem where buyers obtain more robust forecasts and forecasters gain access to new markets.
