This paper presents a methodology to determine seasonal forward prices in the electricity generation markets. A Cournot competition to characterize this market is assumed. Forward prices are calculated in accordance with the demand elasticity of the forwards and spot price through a differential or “gap” that represents the risk premium for the current forwards, plus some non-observable heterogeneities. The distribution of the given quantities in seasonal contracts is carried out through the classic portfolio theory. This methodology is applied to the Colombian case, and shows that it will be more profitable for generators to sell the proposed seasonal hydric forwards. 2018 artículo científico 0121-4772 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=282157688001 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282157688001/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282157688001/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282157688001/282157688001.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282157688001/movil 10.15446/cuad.econ.v37n74.54299 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2821 Cuadernos de Economía application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Cuadernos de Economía (Colombia) Num.74 Vol.XXXVII
