Changelog

Weather models provide different output parameters and parameter definitions. Because of this, one must make weather model-specific adjustments to the fundamental models each time you quantify a new weather model.

As part of EQ's strive to support a stellar data feed, we have added quantified weather forecasts for the ICON weather model. The ICON model supports eight daily updates, 4 with 120-hour lead time and 4 with 30-hour lead time.

Remember that these borders are flow-based, meaning the reported REMIT capacity will not represent the actual scheduled day-ahead flow capacity.

Published Polish Fixing-1 spot price in PLN and the N02 spot price in GBP from N2EX.

Added a commodity dropdown selector on our Data Search page. The filter lets you conveniently filter out all curves for power, gas, and other commodities. Combining the commodity picker with a country, say "German power", returns all supply and demand-side factors, historical data, multiple forecasts, derived data like fundamental climate, seasonal normal, capacities, etc., for Germany. Note that data resolution and definition are also reconciled. Timesaving and convenient.

One of EQ's senior market analysts gives a 30-minute update of the Continental power market.

The addition of the GFS ensemble extended forecast provides daily updates of fundamental forecasts for lead time up to 35 days.

EQ's coverage of gas data grows. After three weeks, we now provide 1000 curves for the gas market. Soon we add the gas weather and quantify the weather's effect on gas fundamentals. The service is still in BETA and free of charge. You are welcome to test and gain full access to the functionality of EQ's API, Python client, and Excel integrator. Have fun.

Started to add gas data to the EQ database. Completed EQ's gas data will be as comprehensive as our power data. So far you will find actual data. We are reconciling the nomenclature, resolution, and definition across European gas markets. The added gas data may be harvested via our proven API, Python client, or Excel integrator.

Added extra row with actuals for some tables to make it easier to see when navigating through the archive.

Added synthetic time series on the capacity/production page where actuals don't exist.

Added price cap to the Turkish spot price forecasts model.

Extended the "45 days" page to show GFS ensemble extended (35-days forecasts.

Adding the GFS 35-day yields a daily ensemble forecast covering a 35-day lead-time for all-weather and fundamental data.

Implementing ACER's Gas Day, 06:00 to 06:00 in CET/CEST. The Gas Day is used for the natural gas market in the European Union.

Maintenance and upgrading database servers, improving performance, and preparing for gas analysis.

Switched data source for GFS and GEFS to NOAA.

The German gas zones GPL and NCG were merged to Trading Hub Europe (THE) from October 1st. The new zone, THE, will be a continuation of NCG, while GPL will no longer be updated. At the same time, a new curve was added: DE Futures Natural Gas EUR/MWh EEX-THE OHLC.

GFS deterministic and ensemble dissemination speed improved due to changed sources.

Increased the lead-time for GFS deterministic forecasts from 10 to 15 days.

The adding of a tag for commodity in our API preludes an introduction of more curves. At the same time, the Swagger API documentation was also upgraded.

The data feed for the GB-FR connection was fixed following a change in the ENTSOE-API. We also added the GB-N02 REMIT capacity.

Added the Keadby 2 (GB) as a new unit. Later, we will rename the previous Keadby unit to Keadby-1 to have the naming be consistent.

Increasing rate limits and fixing metadata bugs.

Until recently, the power market of Kosovo was part of the control area of Serbia. Now it is a separate power market with power flow to Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania and Serbia. We have upgraded our API and provide all relevant power flow data.

The link is still in the official testing phase. As soon as it goes online, we will upgrade our models and integrate the effect.

We added simulations of spot market sensitivities to the NP areas earlier this year. With this addition, we extend the service to the rest of Europe. In total EQ now delivers sensitivity simulations for 41 price areas in Europe.

The v0.26 remedies a bug attached to ensemble query’s in version 0.25

The additions comprise most of the continental borders. Flow-based borders capacities are retrieved from the shadow auction.

Added river flows related to cooling of French nuclear plants back to 2000 and simulated the normals

All fundamental climate series now covers the period 1 January through to 31 December 2025.

Climate scenarios now include the weather information for 2020. With this extension, the climate series now covers the period from 1. January 1980 through to 31. Jan 2020.

Data for 2020 is now included in the normal simulations. The 30-year normal period is 1991 – 2020.

Added CHP curves for DK1 and DK2 for central/decentral production.

Split Swedish hydropower capacity into run-of-river and reservoir production.

Nord Pool: Completed curves for Nuclear and Hard Coal Installed MW Capacity

We have now added unit production schedules from the day-ahead and intraday auctions for Ireland and Northern Ireland. You can find the curves in the Time series API, in the Excel Integrator and by using the Python client.

Added actual production curves for individual powerplant units in Switzerland.

Adding more REMIT powerplant units for Denmark. Updating some fuel types and installed capacity for some existing units.

Wind power production climate series are being updated to include an additional scenario based on the 2020 climate year. Now the climate series will include the 41 weather years from 1980 up to and including 2020.

A complete rewrite of the UMM Calculator Excel sheet, including far more areas than the previous version.

You can now download forecasts published at any date by only specifying the date. This has been possible to do in the Time series API, but in the Excel sheet you previously had to set the issue date and forecast tag. Now you can specify an "issued-at-latest" date and the Excel Integrator will find the newest forecast up-to that date.

Plenty of improvements in the documentation, improved pandas-integration, added support for Realto-users to connect to Energy Quantified's API, updated the area and borders to reflect the newest changes in Italy, and more. See https://energyquantified-python.readthedocs.io/ for more details.

Turkey is the only market in Europe that doesn't have a spot market in CET time, which caused issues for our implementation for price spreads. We've worked around this and now properly displays prices spreads between Turkey, Bulgaria and Greece despite the markets being in different time zones.

Add support for period-based instances in the Excel Integrator. In other words, you can now download REMIT-capacities from any time in history to compare how the capacities have changed between two dates. This functionality has been available in the Time series API for a long time, and now you can also do it in the Excel Integrator.

We have now included the control run to all 46-day ensemble forecasts. You will notice that the forecasts have 51 ensembles/scenarios, where they previuosly had 50.

Add support for loading instances for period-instance series in TSV-format. Previously, these were only available in JSON format. This is a huge upgrade, allowing Excel Integrator users to extract older instances to see how the REMIT capacity was reported on an earlier stage.

We have fixed cross-border capacities for GB-FR and DE-CZ following changes in NTC outage reporting: 1. Outages between Germany and Czech Republic was previously reported on "Germany", but now the messages are published with the German TSOs as area. 2. GB-FR introduced a new 1014 MW cable around new year. The reporting is now per cable, and not on the total transfer capacity.

Over a hundred curves, like "DE>PL Exchange Net Transfer Capacity MW 15min REMIT", have been updated to include up to twelve months lead-time in capacity.
