  3. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • Abrief review of the UK Electricity Industry prior to 1990. • Краткий обзор состояния британской электроэнергетики перед приватизацией в 1990 г • Electricity Generation and Supply differences in approach between England / Wales and Scotland. • Генерация и сбыт - раличия между регионами • Fuels used for generation • Топливо, используемой для генерации

  4. The Generation and Distribution of Electricity have always been different in Scotland compared to England and Wales Scotland: Two vertically integrated companies supplying discrete areas Scotland England and Wales England and Wales: One Generating Company (CEGB) and 12 Regional Electricity Suppliers. [CEGB did NOT supply electricity to consumers] 2000 MW • Electricité de France EdF

  5. Interconnector to Scotland +1643 +7525 +418 -4709 -1963 Interconnector to France Most Generating Capacity is in the North - most demand is in South MW Generating Capacity Surplus/Deficit on February 12th 18:00 +ve: generating capacity exceeding demand -ve: demand exceeding generating capacity

  6. Immediately prior to Privatisation At start of New Electricity Trading Arrangments Mid 1990s

  7. Изменяющееся лицо рынка электроэнергии в Британии • Demand has risen by 50% since 1970 • Large rise in output from CCGT since 1993 • Nuclear output increased steadily but is set to decline • Coal [Oil] generation has fallen rapidly since Privatisation

  8. Electricity Generation - pre 1990 • Decision on how electricity was to be generated was done on a generating set basis: • Generating Sets to run were selected on Merit Order. • Based on Marginal Costs (i.e. the fuel costs) • Some generating sets were run OUT of MERIT ORDER where system constraints were an issue. • Generators sold electricity to Regional Electricity Boards. • Electricity Boards sold to consumers in their Area only. • Prices to consumers varied between regions

  9. Изменяющееся лицо рынка электроэнергии в Британии • Most Generating Capacity in North • Most coal-fired stations in North • Most Oil-fired stations in South • Nuclear stations - distributed around coast • Most Hydrostations are in Scotland Significant power flows North > South

  13. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • A brief review of the UK Electricity Industry prior to 1990. • Краткий обзор состояния британской электроэнергетики перед приватизацией в 1990 г • The Electricity Markets in the 1990s after Privatisation • Рынки электроэнергии в 1990 г после приватизации • The New Electricity Trading Arrangements • Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. • Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС

  14. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • The bidding process - Pool Input and Pool Output • Процесс подачи заявок в системе пула • The Electricity Pool • Электрический пул • The Electricity Markets in the 1990s after Privatisation • Рынки электроэнергии в 1990 г после приватизации

  15. The Pool operated by National Grid Company Электрический пул Suppliers purchase electricity from the Pool Generators (> 100 MW) bid into Pool to Supply Electricity Consumers Simplified Diagram of the Electricity Pool England and Wales

  16. The Operation of The Electricity Pool: 1990 - 2001 • Only the Generators (>100 MW) bid into the POOL to supply electricity e.g. National Power (now Innogy), PowerGen etc. • The National Grid Company published projected demands for the following day and invited bids. • The Generators supplied bids for each generating set in each station for each half-hour period of the following day. • The NGC sorted bids to determine which generating sets would be used for each particular period, and which ones would have capacity made available.

  17. Scottish Nuclear * Scottish Hydro Consumers Scottish Power Electricité de France PowerGen Licensed Suppliers Consumers The Pool пул Independents BNFL (Magnox) RECs Industry Second Tier Consumers Nuclear Electric * Eastern ** Innogy Scotland England and Wales

  18. 1250 MW Bid from company E £19.50 per MWh Bid from company D £19.40 per MWh 1250 MW Bid from company C £19.32 per MWh 32500 MW 1250 MW Bid from company B £19.31 per MWh 1250 MW 1250 MW Bid from company A £19.20 per MWh Range of bids from companies in range £18 - £19 per MWh Range of bids from companies in range £15 - £18 per MWh Range of bids from companies in range <£15 per MWh System Marginal Price = £19.31 SMP 10000 MW 10000 MW Companies up to and including B successful 10000 MW

  19. The Operation of The Electricity Pool • All Companies who were successful are paid the SMP for all units generated irrespective of what their bid was. • The bids were for the single half-hour period and fresh bids were required for all half hour periods. • It was possible for companies to bid £0 and this would guaranteed that they generated and paid SMP. • However, if all Companies did the same they would have to generate electricity for nothing. • In addition to the SMP, there was also a capacity charge relating to the generating capacity which was requested to be available.

  20. The Operation of The Electricity Pool • Capacity Charge paid to all Generators who had been requested to have capacity available. -based on formula: LOLP * (VOLL - SMP) Loss of Load Probability Value of Lost Load VOLL: was set by the Regulator at around £2400 per MWH LOLP: normally a very low figure but could become significant if there was a shortfall in generating capacity Capacity Charge: signal to ensure sufficient capacity was available. Pool Input Price (PIP) = SMP + LOLP * (VOLL - SMP)

  21. Электрический пул • System Constraints: • Some Power Stations constrained “ON” to ensure security of supply even when their bid was more expensive. • Some Power Stations constrained “OFF” even when their bid was cheaper (-excess of capacity in one region). • Constrained Stations paid their “Bid” Price • POOL Output Price: (POP) = PIP + Uplift • Uplift represented the additional charges incurred to National Grid Company because of System Constraints • Suppliers purchased Electricity at POP

  22. Электрический пул: Supply Side Regional Electricity Companies (RECs) • Before privatisation: Sole supplier in their region • After privatisation • Consumers > 1MW could purchase from ANY REC not just their own regional Company. • From 1994 Consumers > 100 kW were included in Deregulation • From September 1998 All consumers could select their supplier. • Prices to consumer have fallen. • e.g. Domestic Consumer in East Anglia [Восточной Англии] 7.48p per kWh before 1998 - now ~ 6p per kWh

  23. Электрический пул: A Review • Need for strong Regulatory Body to ensure prices were not fixed. • Evidence suggested price manipulation took place in early years. • Regulator required major generators to dispose of some stations. • The lack of Demand Side Bidding was a weakness • Charges for Transmission Losses were averaged over whole Network. • Customers in North subsidise those in South • Generators in South subsidise those in North • Issue not resolved

  24. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • A brief review of the UK Electricity Industry prior to 1990. • Краткий обзор состояния британской электроэнергетики перед приватизацией в 1990 г • The Electricity Markets in the 1990s after Privatisation • Рынки электроэнергии в 1990 г после приватизации • The New Electricity Trading Arrangements • Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. • Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС

  25. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • The basic principles • Основные принципы • Gate Closure and Final Physical Notification • Закрытие периода и окончательная физическая нотификация • The Balancing Mechanism • Балансирующий механизм • The New Electricity Trading Arrangements • Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА

  26. Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • The basic principles [Основные принципы] How does it differ from the Pool? • Both Generating and Demand Side Bidding Takes Place • Most Electricity (>90%) is traded outside NETA Balancing Mechanism • NETA favours generators and suppliers who can guarantee specific levels of generation/supply in advance. • NETA favours generators and suppliers who can guarantee flexibility in output / demand at short notice.

  27. Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • The basic principles [Основные принципы] How does it differ from the Pool? - continued • Generators and Suppliers are penalised if they deviate from their agreed level of generation / supply. • System security is maintained via the Balancing Mechanism [Балансирующий механизм] • Renewable Generators e.g. Wind and small CHP (~10 MW) can be adversely affected.

  28. Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • The basic principles [Основные принципы] • Generation and Supply focuses on • Balancing Mechanism[Балансирующий механизм] (BM) Units • Generating BM Units may be a single generating set or a collection of small generating sets. • Demand BM Units may be a single large demand consumer or a collection of small consumers. • Trading can take place between Generating and Demand BM Units • Only the volume traded( not price)has to be notified.

  29. The New Electricity Trading Arrangements • Gate Closure and Final Physical Notification • Закрытие периода и окончательная физическая нотификация • Each Generating or Demand BM Unit notifies System Operator of the projected Volume of Electricity to be Traded for each half hour period by 11:00 on preceding day. Initial Physical Notification (IPN) • System Operator checks sufficient capacity is available. GATE CLOSURE : Закрытие периода • Initially 3.5 hours before REAL Time - later reduced to 1 hour. • Final agreed Volumes to be traded noted before Gate Closure. • Final Physical Notification (FPN) окончательная физическая нотификация

  30. The Balancing Mechanism Балансирующий механизм Current Day Day Before Real Time 30 mins Gate Closure Operation of Balancing Mechanism FPN IPN Summary 3.5 hours 1 hour • Changes to contract position cannot be made after Gate Closure • The Balancing Mechanism is operated after Gate Closure to provide System Security

  31. The New Electricity Trading Arrangements Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА Time OFFER FPN OFFER FPN Time The Balancing Mechanism Балансирующий механизм • To allow system to remain stable • Too little electricity on the system • Generators can OFFER to INCREASE output • Suppliers can OFFER to REDUCE consumption • If OFFER is agreed then Generators / Suppliers are PAID for any electricity increased / reduced under the OFFER.

  32. The New Electricity Trading Arrangements Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА Time OFFER FPN Bid OFFER FPN Bid Time The Balancing Mechanism Балансирующий механизм • Too much electricity on the system • Generators can BID to REDUCE output • Suppliers can BID to INCREASE consumption • If BID is agreed then Generators /Suppliers PAY for any reduction in generation / increase in demand under the BID.

  33. 50 - 100 MW: £50 per MWh 25 - 50 MW: £30 per MWh 0 - 25 MW: £20 per MWh FPN окончательная физическая нотификация Example of Differential Offers from a Generator The Balancing Mechanism Балансирующий механизм Generators / Suppliers may submit OFFERs or BIDs which differ for different levels of deviation from the Final Physical Notification National Grid Company normally accepts OFFERS / BIDS which are cheapest unless System Constraints prevent this.

  34. The Balancing Mechanism Балансирующий механизм What happens if System Operator has got it wrong? OFFER / UNDO BID: Pair +2 OFFER / UNDO BID: Pair +1 FPN BID / UNDO OFFER: Pair -1 BID / UNDO OFFER: Pair -2 • OFFERs / BIDs cannot be cancelled • UNDO BID removes an OFFER and is usually less than the OFFER • UNDO OFFER removes a BID and is usually more than the BID • OFFERs / UNDO BIDs [ or BIDs / UNDO OFFERs] are submitted in pairs

  35. Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА What happens if a Generator / Supplier is out of balance? Example from 2 days ago • Unexpected changes in Demand • Equipment Failure • Generator / Supplier has too much electricity on the system [too much generation / too little demand] • * charged for imbalance at System Sell Price • Generator / Supplier has too little electricity on the system [too little generation / too much demand] • * charged for imbalance at System Buy Price

  36. Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА How well has it performed since starting on 27th March 2001? From OFGEM: Review of First Year of NETA Wholesale prices of electricity are now 40% lower than they were 5 years ago.

  40. The changing face of the Electricity Market in the UK • A brief review of the UK Electricity Industry prior to 1990. • Краткий обзор состояния британской электроэнергетики перед приватизацией в 1990 г • The Electricity Markets in the 1990s after Privatisation • Рынки электроэнергии в 1990 г после приватизации • The New Electricity Trading Arrangements • Новая система оптовой торговли НЕТА • Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. • Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС

  41. Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС Most CHP Schemes in UK are small average size for those under 10 MW is 650 kW

  42. Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС • Small CHP Generators • Often do not have resources to compete in Trading • Rely on Suppliers who are not so keen to take electricity as their Imbalance position might be affected • Since 2000 • 61% reduction in output from small CHP Generators after NETA • At same time have seen prices for fuel for generators increase by around 14% • The few Trading in NETA saw reduction of 17% in income

  43. Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС • Wind Generation has been affected - • cannot predict wind so cannot guarantee output • cannot trade in Balancing Mechanism. • In 2002 the Renewables Obligation will assist Wind but there was one year before this was introduced • Consolidation of groups of small CHP units together has been shown to reduce risk of NETA trading. • However, only marginally improvements are possible from consolidation of several Wind Farms.

  44. Boiler Generator Condenser Some Implications for Renewable Generation and Combined Heat and Power. Последствия для генерации на возобновляемых источниках и для ГРЭС District Heating • CHP units using Pass Out Turbines should be suited to NETA because of flexibility • In UK there are very few schemes like this ~10 MW

  45. Conclusions (1) • Key Changes in Electricity Market in UK • April 1st 1990: Privatisation: Electricity POOL Established • Large Consumers benefit from Deregulation • 1994: Intermediate Consumers benefit from Deregulation • 1998 + All Consumers benefit from Deregulation • 27th March 2001: NETA replaced POOL • 1st April 2002: Renewable Obligation comes into force • The POOL and NETA were not used in Scotland The Future BETTA (British Electricity Transmission and Trading Arrangements). It is planned to extend NETA to include Scotland in October 2004

  46. Conclusions (2) • Key Changes in Electricity Market in UK • Prices to consumers have fallen as a result of Deregulation (up to 20% in some cases) • Wholesale prices of Electricity have fallen by 40% over last 4 years, and 20% since introduction of NETA • Prices to consumers have changed little since introduction of NETA - to early to see full effect as prices by Suppliers only tend to change once a year or so. • Most electricity >> 90% is traded outside Balancing Mechanism Trading • NETA favours Generators / Suppliers who can guarantee output / supply in advance • NETA favours Generators / Suppliers who can be flexible to make adjustments during Balancing Mechanism Trading.
