Negative-price exposure simulator: how many hours are lost & uncompensated under each CRE option?
To receive the CRE compensation (0.5×Pmax), producers must curtail output during negative-price hours • This simulator estimates uncompensated FLH by project profile
Project assumptions
1,300 h
507 h
0.50
2 h
Per 1 MW PV • RTE 85% • Battery charges from PV during neg-price hours, discharges 17–21h
Franchise (lost) Compensated (0.5×Pmax) Compensated (0.25×Pmax) Capped (lost) Battery absorbed
