Imbalances - Added second filter option to the chart, e.g. to look at CCGTs in Yorkshire. The chart can be found at : Imbalances -> Imbalances. BM Unit Operations - Added plot for ABSV which shows the Applicable Balancing Services Volume, ie volume for balancing services outside of the Balancing Mechanism. The chart can be found at : Generation -> BM Unit Operations. Metered Demand (Settlement) - Added a new chart that shows demand by type, e.g. NHH Metered and location. This is settlement data so is only available for users that can see Metered Volume data. The chart can be found at : System -> Metered Demand (Settlement). v4.3.18 - 27th June, 2020Changes in this release are as follows: BM Unit Operations - On this chart system bid/offer volumes have been added to visually show these volumes and to allow for the easy download of these values historically. The chart can be found at : Generation -> BM Unit Operations. BM Unit Bid Profile - On the chart the Import Availability has been added so it is easier to track the storage management at pumped storage and battery plants. The chart can be found at : Balancing Mechanism -> BM Unit Bid Profile. v4.3.17 - 15th June, 2020Changes in this release are as follows: Daily BM Bid Prices - This new table provides on a single screen the valid declared first bid prices (where there is a margin between FPN and MIL), which can be sorted by period. Accepted actions are then highlighted over the top. This provides a comparison of acceptances across the market. The table can be found at : Summary Screens -> Daily BM Bid Prices. Daily BM Offer Prices - This new table provides on a single screen the valid declared first offer prices (where there is a margin between FPN and MEL), which can be sorted by period. Accepted actions are then highlighted over the top. This provides a comparison of acceptances across the market. The table can be found at : Summary Screens -> Daily BM Offer Prices. v4.3.13 - 17th April, 2020Changes in this release are as follows: Accepted Actions Table - This new table provides the stack of all accepted actions in the market which have contributed to the system price calculation. This table also flags system actions (in yellow) and is particularly useful in spotting where the system price calculation has ignored a succession of system actions that might be undone if a new low bid action arrives. The table also shows when the market index price impacts the system calculation and which units are those impacting the price. The table can be found at : Summary Screens -> Accepted Actions. Submitted Bids Table - This new table contains all the volume and price bid pairs for downwards regulation. This shows the complete breakdown of these values and opens up API access to the figures. The table can be found at : Summary Screens -> Submitted Bids. Submitted Offers Table - This new table contains all the volume and price offer pairs for upwards regulation. This shows the complete breakdown of these values and opens up API access to the figures. The table can be found at : Summary Screens -> Submitted Offers. Inertia Estimate Chart - This new chart shows the fuel mix and a calculation of an estimate of system inertia. It shows the system inertia before balancing mechanism actions and after applying balancing mechanism actions. It is useful for analysis of when NG ESO will bring on extra volume in the balancing mechanism and via BSAD trades to provide extra inertia on the system. The chart can be found at : System -> Inertia. SNSP Line on System Fuel Mix Chart - This new line on the system fuel mix chart shows the System Non-Synchronous Penetration (SNSP) on the system. THE SNSP is important because NG ESO will have rules about the amount of non-synchronous generation they can tolerate on the system at one time. The line is a green dotted line on the system fuel mix chart which can be found at : System -> System Fuel Mix. |
