The energy market consists of multiple trading platforms, each with its own function and revenue model. For owners of wind and PV installations combined with energy storage, this offers unique opportunities to generate additional income.
An imbalance market arises when supply and demand on the grid diverge. Prices can fluctuate sharply here, sometimes every fifteen minutes or even faster. With a battery, you can respond to this lightning-fast and profit from peak prices.
(Frequency Containment Reserve)
FCR is intended to keep the grid frequency stable. Your battery automatically responds to small fluctuations in the grid and is compensated for this. This ensures a stable and continuous revenue stream.
(manual Frequency Restoration Reserve)
With aFRR, your system actively helps balance the electricity grid through automatic control. You receive compensation for availability and deployment.
mFRR is manually deployed during major grid imbalances. This offers opportunities to provide flexible capacity at attractive rates. By intelligently switching between these markets, your energy storage can be continuously utilized optimally. NordiconVolt supports you with technology and strategy to trade automatically and thus extract the maximum return from your installation.
