Site and Energy Asset Mapping
This chart illustrates how measured energy flexibility aligns with external buy signals. The grey bars are the total flexibility capacity available from a sample of all the connected 15 pilot buildings’ behind-the-meter energy assets. The blue line shows real-time imbalance ask prices, i.e., the offered market price for acquiring flexibility. The red line indicates the city’s sell threshold. Highlighted with brighter blue matching the black: The available flexibility ca be sold when prices exceed this threshold … and if the energy is not required locally for something else. The highlighted peak shows the point where available capacity is activated, turning flexibility into a market sell order.
The blue line represent the pricing of flexibility deals (€/MWh), while grey bars are the available flexibility at all properties managed by Riihimäki. It is decided that flexibility is profitable to sell when the pricing is over 100 €/MWh. The red rectangles show the profitable earning opportunities when the city can sell their available flexibility at the time by creating asks for those time slots.
The stacked bars are flexibility asks from different sellers, while the red bars are bid orders from one buyer. Sellers names were obfuscated with the exception of Riihimäki. The buyer is a single company.
