Automated Flexibility Trading
There are several challenges grid operators face on a daily basis. Here are a few examples of how GridTools and NODES™ can help solve those with two solutions combined in a new digital flexibility value-chain.
Potential of Batteries in a DSO Market
By stacking multiple value streams, battery storage can improve its business case while supporting grid stability. The flexibility market operated by NODES offers a viable solution for battery storage assets to participate in a structured and transparent DSO market.
Capacity Flex Arrangement (CFA)
Using Flexible Capacity Arrangements (FCAs), System Operators can offer available grid capacity to Operators of Wind, Solar and other Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) to avoid curtailments and increase the share of renewable energy in the grid.
A virtual fuse contract
In winter, there is a challenge in cold climate areas between certain specific times when the load is high, and power peaks in the electricity grid can appear. The peak in the grid can cause high stress to the electricity network. By capping electricity consumption between certain specific times when the load is high, power peaks in the electricity grid can be reduced.
