Challenges
Clients’ profile. Traders, and portfolio & asset managers of merchant generators, power storage & renewable plants, operating in real-time short-term ISO and RTO markets, or in European Power Exchange, who wish to outsource complex trading optimization and price forecasting algorithms, as well as trade automation (data management and bid submission), in real-time intraday and day-ahead (5-60 mins interval) energy and reserve markets.
Target. Maximize trading profit by implementing customized trading strategies that dynamically adjust the bidding of a portfolio of plants, every trading period, to extract the maximum value from instantaneous and anticipated changes in the spot price and the offer stack in the market, while fulfilling all operational constraints and existing contractual obligations, if any.
A fully-featured, ready-for-use cloud trading solution together with a team of experts to create and maintain cutting-edge trading models as markets evolve.
Why QR Trading Optimizer Service
Our expert (MSc and PhD) team will use QR AI Forecaster and QR Trading Optimization platforms to create and manage real-time short-term optimal trading models that deliver, for a portfolio of assets, trading signals in the form of optimal bids that maximize your portfolio gross margin or P&L, across every forward (5-60 minutes) trading periods, in intraday and day-ahead energy and reserve markets. This holds true for a portfolio of generation assets in an ISO or RTO, or a trading portfolio in a power exchange.
A hybrid, three layer AI model using regression, clustering and classification algorithms, predicts with high accuracy whether to participate in day-ahead reserve or spot markets. All you need to provide is the fuel and operating cost of your plant.
Short-term trading signals are computed at the granularity of the market, 5, 15, 30 or 60 minutes. New trading signals are produced every 10 to 15 minutes, 24/7. The trading signals or optimal bids are sent to you via API, electronically, or can be directly submitted to your marketplace, on your behalf.
How it works. The system automatically fetches all necessary data live and around the clock from ISOs, power exchanges, weather services, etc. Then QR AI Forecaster computes accurate AI forecasts for price, demand and the stack of bids & offers in every ISOs or power exchanges where trading takes place. Next, QR Optimizer uses these forecasts as input, along with generation costs, constraints, and outages to compute the optimal bids for each trading period whose expected cleared RTD maximize the P&L. The cycle is automated and runs 24/7, and optimal bids are published and exported via API and can be submitted directly to the ISO or power exchange.
