Description

The accelerated pace of decarbonisation coupled with increasing security of supply concerns continues to drive renewables-based power generation. However, power trading market participants are challenged with renewable intermittency, market volatility, dealing with diverse regional balancing mechanisms and varying levels of market integration. These complexities have led to the shift towards short-term trading, and adaptation of the tools relied on to support greater revenue generation and achieve competitive advantage. Brady’s PowerDesk software portfolio supports high performance trading, scheduling and balancing activities in European power markets.

Description

The UPLAN Advanced Clearing Engine (UPLAN-ACE) is designed to facilitate day-ahead market operations using protocols established by operators, while also executing real-time economic dispatch in 5-minute increments throughout each operational hour. This innovative system seamlessly merges both day-ahead generation offers and real-time demand bids to optimize the delivery of energy and ancillary services for hourly operations as well as 5-minute dispatches. One of the standout features of UPLAN-ACE is its ability to effectively model the variable and intermittent characteristics of emerging technologies, including batteries, flywheels, and other rapid-response solutions. Furthermore, the Real-Time Model (RTM) not only replicates the scheduling process for the hour ahead but also manages real-time dispatch every 5 minutes, relying on the commitment schedules from the Day-Ahead Market (DAM) and forecasting real-time load requirements. It performs dispatch operations on a 5-minute cycle, incorporating optimal power flow calculations, and ultimately generates locational marginal prices (LMPs), imbalance schedules, and updated dispatch information. This comprehensive approach ensures that UPLAN-ACE can adapt to the dynamic nature of modern energy systems while providing accurate and timely forecasts for market participants.
