Building on a first study in 2020, N-SIDE kicked-off a new project with Statnett in January entitled “Detailed Simulations for alternative balancing solutions”, in which our Power Matching Solution will be leveraged. The project tackles a rising concern for TSOs: In the coming years, European balancing platforms, such as MARI, will be implemented, which will […]

On December 7, N-SIDE will have the pleasure to present an innovative topic together with Elia at the Energy Days 2020 (virtual event), organized by Anthony Papavalisiou, Associate Professor at CORE (Center for Operations Research and Econometrics) UCLouvain. Johan Maricq, Head of Digital workplace and AICoE at ELIA, and Wolf Berwouts, Head of the Energy […]
read moreStrategies for managing internal grid constraints in the European balancing platforms
Currently, each European TSO, has a complete control over its national balancing processes: in case of imbalance, the TSO activates unilaterally its domestic resources, if necessary checking that such activation does not result in grid infeasibility. This is about to change in the coming years with the implementation of the European balancing platforms such as […]

In the frame of the H2020 project MAGNITUDE, N-SIDE and VITO have designed innovative integrated markets in which conversion and storage orders enable asset owners to mitigate spot market risks and trade more efficiently thanks to co-cleared gas, electricity and heat markets. The objective of the H2020 project MAGNITUDE is to develop business and market […]
read moreTime-series forecasting in Energy: the need of explainable AI
Anticipating the future is a key concern for all actors of the energy sector. More specifically, as energy became a data-driven sector, forecasting of time-series has taken a significant importance for a wide range of actors: for a system operator to minimise the operational costs of running the grid for an asset owner to support […]
