aFRR energy market

The aFRR energy market, i.e. the automatic frequency restoration reserve energy market, is a real-time market. The price of aFRR energy is determined for each 4-second market period by a real-time activation signal, based on aFRR energy market bids. The market area for the aFRR energy market is Finland. The bid validity period of the aFRR energy market is 15 minutes.

On this page you will find graphs of activated aFRR energy and aFRR energy price. The publication of 1-minute marginal prices will be available in the near future.

aFRR energy cross border marginal price up  

aFRR energy cross border marginal price (CBMP), upwards direction. Calculated by PICASSO platform for bidding zone FI when Fingrid is connected to PICASSO, or by Fingrid when Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO. The price is average price for each 3 minutes, if there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty.  

aFRR energy cross border marginal price down  

aFRR energy cross border marginal price (CBMP), downwards direction. Calculated by PICASSO platform for bidding zone FI when Fingrid is connected to PICASSO, or by Fingrid when Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO. The price is average price for each 3 minutes, if there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty.  

aFRR energy activation volume total, up 

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price upwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with marginal price and activations with with higher price compared to marginal price. 

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price, up  

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price upwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with marginal price.  

aFRR energy activation volume local selection, up  

aFRR energy activation volume local selection upwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with higher price compared to marginal price.  

aFRR energy activation volume total, down 

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price downwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with marginal price and activation with lower price compared to marginal price. 

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price, down  

aFRR energy activation volume with marginal price downwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with marginal price.  

aFRR energy activation volume local selection, down  

aFRR energy activation volume local selection downwards direction, including bidding zone FI activations with lower price compared to marginal price.  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, up  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, upwards direction. Calculated based on PICASSO platform marginal price for bidding zone FI and satisfied demand of Fingrid, when Fingrid is connected to PICASSO. If Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO, based on marginal price calculated by Fingrid and activated aFRR volume in Finland. The price is volume weighted average price for each 15 minutes, if there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty. Volume weighted average price is used in calculation of imbalance price.  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, local selection, up  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price of local selection, upwards direction. Calculated based on upward bids activated with higher price comparing to PICASSO platform marginal price for bidding zone FI, and respective volume. If Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO, there will be no local selection activation or price. The price is volume weighted average price for each 15 minutes, taking in account the individual prices and volumes of locally activated bids. If there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty.  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, down  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, downwards direction. Calculated based on PICASSO platform marginal price for bidding zone FI and satisfied demand of Fingrid, when Fingrid is connected to PICASSO. If Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO, based on marginal price calculated by Fingrid and activated aFRR volume in Finland. The price is volume weighted average price for each 15 minutes, if there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty. Volume weighted average price is used in calculation of imbalance price.  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price, local selection, down  

aFRR energy volume weighted average price of local selection, downwards direction. Calculated based on downward bids activated with lower price comparing to PICASSO platform marginal price for bidding zone FI, and respective volume. If Fingrid is not connected to PICASSO, there will be no local selection activation or price. The price is volume weighted average price for each 15 minutes, taking in account the individual prices and volumes of locally activated bids. If there have not been aFRR activations for respective direction during the period, the value is empty. 

Sum of aFRR energy bids, up

Sum of aFRR energy bids, down  

Sum of aFRR energy bids for downwards direction, in bidding zone FI. Unavailable bids, for example due to communication problems, are not included in the sum.
