- Design of ancillary service markets and products: Challenges and recommendations for EU renewable power systems: Deliverable D3.3Publication . van der Welle, Adriaan; Morales-España, Germán; Sijm, Jos; Serna, Ricardo Hernandez; Kochems, Johannes; Couto, António; Algarvio, Hugo; Kiviluoma, Juha; Vries, Laurens de; Estanqueiro, AnaABSTRACT: The overall objective of the current study is to analyse the implications of the transition towards a renewable, climate-neutral power system in the EU for the demand and supply of ancillary services (AS) of this system in general and for the market design and related EU regulation of these services in particular. The study focuses predominantly on electricity balancing services (‘frequency control’). However, other ancillary services – not ably reactive power services (‘voltage control’) and system restoration services (‘black start’) – are, to some extent, considered as well. More specifically, the study analyses in particular (i) the current situation (‘base case’) of ancillary (electricity balancing) services in the EU, (ii) the future situation (‘towards a 100% renewable EU power system’) of these services, and (iii) the major challenges and recommendations for the main ancillary services markets in the EU in order to improve the performance of these markets in the coming years, i.e. up to 2030 and beyond.
- Open-access tool of linked electricity market models: Deliverable D4.8Publication . Rinne, Erkka; Schimeczek, Christoph; Algarvio, Hugo; Santos, Gabriel; Cvetkovic, Milos; Jimenez, Ingrid Sanchez; Vries, Laurens de; Serna, Ricardo Hernandez; Morales-España, Germán; Sijm, Jos; Estanqueiro, AnaABSTRACT: For a holistic understanding and simulation of the energy markets, many different aspects need to modelled properly. Often no single modelling tool offers the whole picture, but a combination of methods needs to be used. A model linkage platform has been chosen previously and this deliverable describes the integration of the modelling tools used in TradeRES to the linking application, Spine Toolbox. Spine Toolbox was used to build data processing and execution workflows around the energy system modelling tools Backbone, AMIRIS, EMLab, COMPETES, RESTrade and MASCEM. The aim is to integrate selected tools together for answering the research questions in the TradeRES project. The integrations of individual tools and some combinations are described in this document. Mostly, the work is still in progress. Also, a common database to serve the case studies has been created, but populating the database with scenario data is still in progress. A common data model to serve all the modelling tools has been created and the database is implemented using Spine Toolbox.
