Customers have found Sygration's Market Simulators an excellent way to estimate the benefits and impacts of becoming dispatchable in the Ontario Electricity Market. Both Dispatchable Load and Generation Simulators allow you to test your bids and offers and establish a market strategy long before you commit to becoming dispatchable – or in choosing a location to build.
Most companies that are participating in Ontario's Demand Response Programs – either IESO's TDRP or the OPA's DRP – already use Sygration's email-based alert system to keep them informed of high forecast prices. We have also developed new systems for use by Aggregators that will allow them to set different price thresholds for their clients and provide reporting on alert status, capability MW and commitment MW. This is ideal for aggregators that participate in IESO's ELRP Program or OPA's DR-1 voluntary demand response programs.
