Press Release
ERCOT Nodal Market – Updated 2011 ERCOT Electricity Market Report
LCG, July 12, 2010 -- LCG Consulting will release by the end of August 2010 their 3rd quarter 2011 report on the Texas electricity market showing the potential impacts of operating in the proposed nodal market structure.
Using the proprietary UPLAN model and the most recent ERCOT (Electricity Reliability Council of Texas) protocol and data combined with well accepted methodology, LCG simulates hourly operations of the ERCOT electricity market. With this report power generation companies, traders, merchants, bankers, utilities and other market players can more accurately predict the opportunities and risks in the ERCOT electricity marketplace.
The report includes forecasts for LMPs (Locational Marginal Prices), A/S (Ancillary Services) prices, hub prices, zonal prices, and congestion costs (CRRs). The report can be customized to include additional details such as generator performance, hourly LMPs, transmission congestion, and other information of interest.
The 2011 ERCOT Market Report is based on assumptions of electricity demand forecast, generation capacity by fuel type and by zone, and transmission constraints. The results include hourly hub prices for West, North, South, Houston, ERCOT bus averages, and EROCT hub averages. It also includes hourly prices for the load zones.
UPLAN Network Power Model replicates the behavior of regional power markets and power systems to simulate the financial and physical operations of entire grids. It simulates the bidding process for the Energy and Ancillary Service markets and dispatches generators hourly, using region-specific protocols.
