7th Edition European Electricity Ancillary Services and Balancing Forum

The face and practicalities of ancillary have completely changed over the past 5 years, not only from a regulatory point of view with the network codes but also with the key impact that renewable are having. Ancillary remains a key profit making tool for the energy company and the conference will show how to continue to utlise this as the market changes. During the forum we will, most of all, debate on how the current market model should look like. Moreover, the conference will look closely at the practical side of balancing today and how it will impact the business model, regardless of the future with network codes. We will explore the varying challenges that European market participants are experiencing when it comes to balancing; demand side management, the injection of renewable in the market and its role within ancillary and balancing and using ancillary services as a profit making revenue stream. This marcus evans conference will show where adaptations to strategy should take place and where the market opportunities are; simply, what should good ancillary look like in 2016?
