Provision of flexibility – with & without SPG (UK) SPG can provide a very large proportion of flexible generation, primarily when standing ready but not generating Without SPG, conventional coal and gas must provide a large proportion of flexibility by running at part load, decreasing efficiency With SPG present, conventional coal and gas can provide far less flexibility, and so can run efficiently at full output
Value of Smart Power Generation (UK) Potential cost savings due to Smart Power Generation 3 The potential savings in underlying generation costs ( fuel, carbon, imports etc) have also been calculated, and range from £22mn pa (2020 Base wind) to £742mn pa (2030 High wind). These are incurred by generators and are reclaimed through participating in the Balancing Mechanism. 4Balancing Services Use of System • The potential value of the flexibility provided by SPG has been quantified by calculating balancing costs under each of the scenarios: • Balancing costs: the costs incurred by the National Grid when ensuring adequate flexibility on the Grid3 • These costs are passed onto consumers through BSUoS4 charges • There are significant potential savings in all scenarios
