Agenda - EDEX • Purpose • Components • Future development • Questions

Purpose - EDEX:

Purpose - EDEX: • Forecast calculations become more and more important for modern TSO’s • Actual used methods are no more adequate for guaranteeing the security on future Electrical Grids • More dynamic and flexible studies needed • More (continuous) intraday dynamic calculations needed between D-1 and Real-time • More correct and continuously updated data needed during the complete forecasting cycle • Access to the correct data becomes critical • More and more platforms appear (TSC CTSS, 20’s, CWE CS, Entso-e Power. System DB……. )

Purpose - EDEX: Standardization • EDEX wants to provide interface specifications basic functionality and best practices to the Energy world to : • Create a standardized platform to transmit ENTSO-e messages and process them : • CIM Messages • Market Messages • Any binary Message

EDEX: Components • ECP : Energy Communication Platform MADES compliant External communication platform • EPP : Energy Process Platform Central Process handler and integrator • Client Toolbox Decentralised process handler and local integrator

Components - communication MADES (Market Data Exchange Standard) What for? • Harmonization of a communication software for the European electricity (or energy) market, including the following services: - guarantee of delivery - electronic signature - uniform method for data encryption • Defines the platform used for external communication

Components - communication MADES

Components - ECP • ECP, (Energy Communication Platform), • Reference package for MADES standard • ECP was developed by CWE TSO’s • Transfer of the ownership of ECP to Entso-e on-going • Licenses for all TSO’s available • Already used by 13 TSO’s

Components - ECP

Components – EPP Message Processing • EPP, (Energy Process Platform), • Based on Open Source Components (JBoss) • EPP was developed by CWE TSO’s for the MC CS • Availability of licenses for all TSO’s on-going • Uses a canonical model • ESB, Process Orchestrator, Message Validators • ECP integrated for external communication • Standardized interfaces for functional modules and data containers

Next Step – Client Toolbox

Next Step : Client Toolbox • Message Validation (CIM, Market…. ) • Standardised Interfaces • Distributed calculations – so less need for model transfers • Can run as standalone system • Intelligent data gathering provided as a Service • Data Security and confidentiality : • On the Communication via ECP • Owner of data decides who has access • Local Data Storage for models with subscription service
