In the last week of March, the RECS International Director, Adam White, spoke with Montel, an information provider for the European energy markets, on the matter of 24/7 matching of energy production and consumption.
The concept of 24/7 matching is popular among traders and consumers in renewable energy markets as it offers a promise of more transparency and more dynamism in renewable energy consumption markets.
While the desire to increase the one-on-one matching of production and consumption of energy is understandable, the actual execution of real-time matching may be complex and at least for the next five years hard to obtain with the current technical systems in place.
Developing 24/7 matching initiatives requires a careful, step-by-step approach and care must be taken that the robust GO system, built over 20 years of market experience, is not undermined.
