Changelog

GB

• We now have BESS Owners - GB for a monthly view of aggregated BESS assets (by MW, MWh and count) per owner.

US - ERCOT

GB

What's new

We've added BESS Industry Growth - GB, a dataset containing the total capacity of GB BESS assets in MWh, MW, and asset count, for each month since June 2019.

US - ERCOT

What's new

There's now an endpoint for the ERCOT Battery Benchmark (Nowcast) . With this data, you can see our insights into what Modo thinks are average battery revenues in ERCOT, without the 60-day lag.

We've added data for ORDC - both:

• ORDC and Reliability Deployment prices (real-time, 15-minute intervals) - RTM, real-time reserve price adders for reserves, and reliability deployment price adders for each settlement interval.
• ORDC and Reliability Deployment price adders and Reserves (real-time, SCED intervals) - RTM, which shows the price adders and system lambda of ERCOT, as well as various measures of the system reserves.

Changelog

GB

What's new

• We've completed implementing our timezone functionality! All GB and ERCOT datasets with timestamps now have timezone parameters. For GB data, the default is UTC, and for ERCOT, the default is Central Time (or America/Chicago).
• Our N2EX endpoints have been updated in preparation of the Nord Pool API transition for the retirement of the Nord Pool v1 API on the 30th of June.

Bug fixes and improvements

• Our DX (Frequency Response) datasets have been put into consistent timezones, covering the discontinuity of the EAC launch on November 3rd 2023, where the data went from GB local time to UTC.
• Fixed some temporary downtime on our live EPEX connections. Also, we've backfilled gaps in our live EPEX data.

• We've added more timezones in our timezone selector.

Changelog

GB

• We've changed the filtering for our Elexon Physical Notifications dataset so you can now call any length of time you like. Be warned, this is a lot of data!
• We've fixed our DX historic data (DX results by unit, and DX results summary). Before the release of the EAC platform this data was provided in UK local time, and now is provided in UTC. It's all been converted to UTC.
• We've implemented new security protocols for our EPEX live connection, and released some backend improvements to our EPEX reliability.

USA - ERCOT

• We've added datetime columns - with our new and improved timezones logic - to some endpoints to make them easier to manipulate and use. These are:
  • Historical Ancillary Service Prices - DAM
  • Ancillary Services Clearing Prices - DAM

Changelog

GB

We now have the EPEX Live Continuous Order Book endpoint live on our API.

USA - CAISO

We're filling up our suite of CAISO datasets. This release we have:

• Ancillary Services Prices for both the Day-Ahead Market and Real-Time Market.
• The Energy Storage Report - information about grid scale batteries and how they perform in the CAISO markets. We're really excited about this one.

USA - ERCOT

Timezones!

We've started the rollout of our timezones functionality with our ERCOT datasets. Any dataset in ERCOT with datetime values (i.e. "2024-04-18T12:36:17") has now got timezone information attached to it (i.e. "2024-04-18T12:36:17+01:00" for me in London right now).

It has a super handy functionality on the reference page with an optional dropdown menu, so you can choose what timezone to query and receive data in. If you don't select one, you will automatically receive data in UTC.

Check out an example endpoint to get started.

New geography alert!

We now have 4 CAISO datasets on the API.

These are:

• Locational Marginal Prices for each Node in the Day-Ahead Integrated Forward Market for Energy.
• Locational Marginal Prices for each Node in the Day-Ahead Integrated Forward Market for Residual Unit Commitment.
• Locational Marginal Prices in the Real-Time Market for the Real-Time Pre-Dispatch (Fifteen Minute Market, FMM).
• Locational Marginal Prices in the Real-Time Market for Real-Time Dispatch (5 minute market).

Check them out here.

Changelog

We've now got live grid frequency data that we're measuring in our London office. Check it out here .

USA - ERCOT

We've now got more up-to-date Ancillary Services data for ERCOT! We now have:

• Ancillary Services Offers - DAM
• Ancillary Services Cleared Volumes - DAM

These are on a 2-day delay.
