Description

The NOA Economic Assessment Tool within the ESO involves modelling the future conditions of the system and the economic impact of different transmission reinforcements, proposed by Transmission Owners, under different system scenarios.

Total Quantity or Scope

The Economic Assessment tool must have: 1 The capability to process inputs for modelling, that include (but not limited to); - annual generation capacities (scenario data) for at least 30 years for both GB and European markets - annual interconnector capacities (scenario data) for at least 30 years for both GB and European markets - annual fuel composition (base data) for at least 30 years for both GB and European markets 2 The capability to model / simulate, that include (but not limited to); - the electricity market dispatch across GB and Europe to view zonal and GB wide forecasted hourly dispatch positions, calculate social-economic welfare benefits/costs for each interconnector - water values (inflows, reservoir levels, spill, cost to generate, cost to store, cost of spill) to accurately model hydro plant behaviour. - interconnector flows probabilistically at stress periods within GB (Security of Supply & LOLE modules) - switch between zonal and nodal modelling or a combination of the two - multipurpose, multi-endpoint and multi-directional interconnectors/hybrid sites to perform benefit analysis on potential connections and accurately model flows and prices across hybrid sites 3 The capability to process the outputs for modelling, that include (but not limited to); - review detailed dispatch simulation outputs at an hourly level (Interconnectors & boundary flows, costs, demand, generation, wholesale prices, various fuel emissions) - view hourly behaviour of the hydrogen market (i.e. generation and demand output) - able to extract multiple years' worth of data at an hourly resolution. 4 The ability to interface with other types of models (PowerFactory, Simone), ability to launch the simulation engine using custom automation tools, ability to interface with in those developed tools for Probabilistic Modelling, Voltage Optimisation and Stability assessment 5 The ability to interface with the National Grid Data & Analytics Platform 6 Facilitate batch data manipulation (extraction, input, change, deletion) using our in-house tools (including, but not limited to: COMP & IO, Speed write tool, FES input tool, Dynamic boundary updater, Bidoffer adder tool, POUYA integration, NOA IC Data Scraper)
