Pulsener utilizes and develops various internal tools to support our consultants’ interventions and the value provided during our different missions.
Pulsener has developed a platform for monitoring wholesale electricity and natural gas market prices, as well as key market indices that can influence energy price formation in both spot and futures markets.
Main products tracked :
- Electricity Baseload and Peakload France : Calendar (Y+1 à Y+3), Quarter, Month, SPOT Day ahead,
- Natural gas PEG : Calendar (Y+1 à Y+3), Quarter, Month, SPOT Day ahead,
- Natural gas TTF : Calendar (Y+1 à Y+3), Quarter, Month,
- CO2, coal, Brent.
More than just a data visualization tool, this platform provides our clients with various technical analysis elements to support their position-taking strategies developed with our consultants in energy futures markets.
Pulsener specializes in financial modeling for energy supply contracts, leveraging tools to meticulously optimize budgets for electricity and natural gas procurement. This includes not just supply prices but also transmission rates for electricity and natural gas.
Optimization of electricity grid rates
The Tarif d’Utilisation du Réseau Public d’Electricité (TURPE) in France comprises various pricing components, including fixed and variable elements. These can be optimized by adjusting specific technical and contractual parameters.
Our consultants conduct in-depth analyses of consumption profiles, subscribed transmission levels, tariff formulas, and historical power levels reached. This allows us to identify opportunities for optimizing TURPE applied to our clients’ sites.
Optimization of natural gas grid rates
Called ATRD and ATRT, French T&D for natural gas is divided into components for transportation, distribution, and storage, with tariffs specified in :
- L’ATRT : Accès des Tiers aux Réseaux de Transport including ATS : l’Accès des Tiers aux Stockages which correspond to Natural gas Transportation and Storage tariff,
- L’ATRD : Accès des Tiers aux Réseaux de Distribution, which corresponds to Natural gas Distribution tariff.
Pulsener has internal calculation engines that enable our clients to optimize these natural gas transportation tariffs.
Electricity injection and withdrawal flow analysis
To excel in renewable energy procurement projects, our teams can also rely on internal tools for highly accurate consumption and production flow analysis to :
- guide self-consumption projects towards the most suitable contractual solutions,
- valorize potential surplus production,
- anticipate and forecast additional energy procurement purchases from energy suppliers in the context of implementing PPAs, for example.
Our tools for modeling electricity distribution networks also support our clients in specific initiatives, particularly to :
- Identify opportunities or constraints for connecting renewable electricity generation plants and optimize the geographical locations for connecting our clients’ plants,
- Support the selection of contractual models regarding the use of renewable electricity production for injection or self-consumption, for example.
