Our Services Include

BRP Eligibility Assessment

We evaluate your entity’s readiness to assume balance responsibility, reviewing corporate structure, financial capacity, operational set-up, and settlement capabilities. This includes assessing whether the applicant meets the TSO’s criteria for creditworthiness, communication readiness, and operational control.

Preparation of BRP Application Materials

We compile and prepare all required filings for BRP accreditation, such as imbalance responsibility agreements, financial guarantees, operational declarations, and communication readiness statements. Documentation is tailored to national TSO requirements and harmonised where cross-border participation is planned.

Technical & Communication Requirements

We support the implementation of the data and communication infrastructure required by TSOs, including:

  • Real-time data exchange systems

  • Scheduling and nomination capabilities

  • Gate closure alignment

  • Metering and settlement data processes

  • Integration with TSO platforms and market communication tools

Our guidance ensures operational compliance before entering commissioning tests.

Financial Guarantees & Credit Requirements

We advise on the calculation, structuring, and provision of the financial guarantees required to cover imbalance risk. This includes:

  • Basic operational guarantees

  • Additional monthly or intramonth guarantees

  • TSO-specific collateral arrangements

  • Coordination with clearing banks or guarantee providers

We ensure guarantees are provided correctly and maintained throughout the BRP lifecycle.

End-to-End Coordination with TSOs

We manage direct engagement with TSOs to oversee the review, testing, approval, and activation process. This includes coordination of technical tests, clarifications, updates, and formal confirmation of BRP status, ensuring a smooth and timely accreditation.
