Calculation
For each day in the settlement month:- Scheduled energy — the total energy declared in your accepted schedules for that day
- Actual energy — the total metered energy from MSCONS settlement data
- Imbalance — actual minus scheduled (positive = actual exceeded scheduled, i.e. more consumption or less generation than declared)
Cost calculation
Thetotal_imbalance_cost_eur field represents the financial impact of your imbalance, calculated using reBAP Control Energy Prices. Each quarter-hourly imbalance interval is multiplied by the corresponding reBAP price, then summed across the month.
Daily breakdown
Thedaily_imbalances array contains one DailyImbalance entry per day, each with:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
date | Settlement date |
scheduled_mwh | Total scheduled energy for this day |
actual_mwh | Total actual (metered) energy for this day |
imbalance_mwh | Difference (actual minus scheduled) |
