24/7 CFE Trading: Implications of Trading of 24/7 Carbon Free Energy (CFE) on Electricity System Operation

National Energy System Operator

Nord Pool, AFRY, and Granular Energy

"Changing to 24/7 (hourly or sub hourly) matching of CFE, via EACs, would address concerns of the credibility of certificates, by providing consumers with more transparency in carbon free energy procurement...24/7 CFE EACs could also accelerate grid decarbonisation, by providing time-based signals for the use of CFE and demand side response (DSR) encouraging investment and innovation. This could be particularly powerful in incentivising growth in storage solutions, like batteries, and automation of DSR, particularly if longer term trades or contracts emerge."
