From Plant Management to Market Optimisation
We manage the day-to-day power market operations, positions, imbalances and commercial performance of generation assets as one integrated service.
Same megawatts, different revenue
Two plants of the same capacity in the same region can earn noticeably different annual revenue. The difference comes from forecast quality, which market and which hour the energy is sold in, when maintenance happens and how carefully settlement results are checked.
Frekans treats the commercial side of your plant the way an asset manager would. We decide with data how much energy to sell, in which market, at what price, and whether generating in certain hours makes economic sense.
Our goal is for every megawatt-hour you generate to reach the highest value the market offers.
Six decisions that create the revenue gap
Optimisation is not a single transaction but the sum of small decisions repeated all year. Each one feeds directly into the plant’s realised unit revenue.
Renewable output concentrates in hours when prices fall. We build the sales strategy around the hourly price profile and narrow the gap between the realised price and the average market clearing price (PTF).
When the PTF approaches zero, we calculate hour by hour the outcome of continuing or reducing generation and decide together with your commercial obligations.
Based on price expectations, exchange rates and the plant’s profile, we compare the return of staying in YEKDEM with selling on the open market for each period.
We place planned maintenance and outages in periods of expected low prices and reflect availability changes in the market position on time.
Together we decide how much output is sold on the spot market and how much through bilateral contracts, in line with your revenue target and risk appetite.
We manage registration and sale of renewable energy guarantees of origin (YEK-G), creating a revenue line alongside power sales.
Each technology has a different optimisation priority
Solar
Capture priceOutput peaks at midday, when prices are lowest. The priority is a sales strategy built around this profile, managing low-price hours and choosing maintenance windows well.
Wind
Forecasting and intraday tradingWind output changes quickly through the day. The priority is frequent forecast updates, timely position adjustment on the Intraday Market and reflecting turbine availability accurately.
Hydro
The value of waterIn reservoir plants water is a storable resource. The priority is shifting output into the highest-priced hours, in line with water level and inflow expectations.
Hybrid
Shared grid connectionWhere sources share one connection point, the priority is deciding which source generates in which hour, weighing connection capacity and price together.
Forecast → Settle
Forecast
Building and updating the generation forecast.
Position
Assessing the current market position and its risks.
Trade
Executing the required market transactions.
Monitor
Tracking actual generation and market conditions.
Rebalance
Reassessing positions as new information arrives.
Settle
Checking settlement and revenue performance.
Operations
You don't need your own market operations team.
For plant owners and investors, we can take on all or part of the market operations function under an outsourcing model.
Investors can draw on Frekans's existing market infrastructure and experience without building a separate power market operations team in-house.
Settling energy correctly matters as much as generating it.
Frekans checks the market and commercial results of the assets it manages and tracks any gap between expected and realised revenue.
Performance, reported in a common language
We report the same indicators for every plant on a regular basis, so the impact of optimisation, the gap between expected and realised results and areas for improvement are clear.
Net revenue from all sales channels divided by generation.
Realised unit price as a share of the average PTF for the same period.
Deviation of day-ahead and intraday forecasts from actual generation.
Imbalance and deviation charges per unit of energy generated.
Share of time the plant is ready to generate.
Energy not generated due to instructions, faults or maintenance, and its revenue equivalent.
