Chances Flexibilities
Oct 16, 2024 13:00 Potential is currently opening up for new market players such as battery marketers and flexibility aggregators. TSOs want to use these capacities to stabilise the system and are creating new products. In addition, new players are also becoming involved in the area of system stabilisation by exploiting their high adaptation speed in conjunction with sophisticated AI models. The following compares the status quo and the potential of the three major European synchronised areas for such new market players in terms of system stability.
