Balancing Mechanism
The balancingmechanism will determine difference between energy injected/extracted to or from the
transmission/distribution network at trading points and the participants contracted energy at each
hour.
The total imbalance for each hour = Actual Energy per hour - Contracted energy per hour
Total Imbalance amount for each hour = (Energy imbalance of hour) x (Marginal Price of the hour)
Balancing mechanism for energy will be settled on monthly basis and the trading period is 1 hour.

Editor's Notes
#3 Before going into market structure in Pakistan lets discuss background that world wide markets k,,,,,,,,,,in the last century the world witnessed an exponential growth in systems and technologies using this advancement the trading in electricity has advanced to a stage where every consumer has the choice to select his own power supplier.
However, with the introduction of competition, consumers now have the opportunity to choose their electricity supplier from multiple providers. In the past, the electricity market might have been dominated by a single buyer or a monopoly, where consumers had limited choices and prices were set by the sole provider.
"Why is competition important in markets, such as the electricity sector? What are the benefits of moving from a single buyer model to embracing competition?“
"Why is competition crucial? It drives innovation, lowers prices, and gives consumers more choices. Transitioning to competition in the electricity market empowers consumers, encourages efficiency, and fosters innovation.“suppliers must offer competitive prices to attract customers. This results in downward pressure on prices, ultimately benefiting consumers with lower electricity bills. Suppliers are encouraged to find creative solutions to meet consumer needs and differentiate themselves in the market.
Two important parts of this change are Contractual Transmission Rights (CTR) and Energy Trading Rights (ETR). These help CPPA (Central Power Purchasing Agency) and NTDC (National Transmission and Dispatch Company) manage electricity better.
ETR is the cost per unit of energy (kWh) that distribution companies pay for the electricity they actually use.
CTR is the cost per unit of capacity (kW) that distribution companies pay for the ability to access electricity as needed.
These rates ensure that generation companies are compensated fairly for both the energy they produce and their readiness to supply power whenever it’s needed.

These rates ensure that generation companies are compensated fairly for both the energy they produce and their readiness to supply power whenever it’s needed.
#7 Before going into market structure in Pakistan lets discuss background that world wide markets k,,,,,,,,,,in the last century the world witnessed an exponential growth in systems and technologies using this advancement the trading in electricity has advanced to a stage where every consumer has the choice to select his own power supplier.
However, with the introduction of competition, consumers now have the opportunity to choose their electricity supplier from multiple providers. In the past, the electricity market might have been dominated by a single buyer or a monopoly, where consumers had limited choices and prices were set by the sole provider.
"Why is competition important in markets, such as the electricity sector? What are the benefits of moving from a single buyer model to embracing competition?“
"Why is competition crucial? It drives innovation, lowers prices, and gives consumers more choices. Transitioning to competition in the electricity market empowers consumers, encourages efficiency, and fosters innovation.“suppliers must offer competitive prices to attract customers. This results in downward pressure on prices, ultimately benefiting consumers with lower electricity bills. Suppliers are encouraged to find creative solutions to meet consumer needs and differentiate themselves in the market.
Two important parts of this change are Contractual Transmission Rights (CTR) and Energy Trading Rights (ETR). These help CPPA (Central Power Purchasing Agency) and NTDC (National Transmission and Dispatch Company) manage electricity better.
ETR is the cost per unit of energy (kWh) that distribution companies pay for the electricity they actually use.
CTR is the cost per unit of capacity (kW) that distribution companies pay for the ability to access electricity as needed.
These rates ensure that generation companies are compensated fairly for both the energy they produce and their readiness to supply power whenever it’s needed.

1) Technology (SCADA, metering infrastructure, billing systems);
Liquidity in market; maturity of Suppliers, Traders, Market Operators, Regulator,
Technological changes and other market conditions like market coming to equilibrium… etc.
#10 Talking Points:
Now we will compare the current single buyer model with the proposed model of the competitive wholesale market:
Under the existing Single-buyer model, CPPA-G as a single buyer contracts the generation capacity on behalf of DISCOs. Hence, CPPA-G is the main interface between generators and DISCO in terms of procuring power, negotiating and managing contracts and performing invoicing and settlements. (Go to the link)
Under the competitive wholesale market model, CPPA-G will no longer be involved in procuring capacity for DISCOs and sign contracts on behalf of DISCOs, all the contracts will be signed directly among generators and DISCOs.
CTBCM is wholesale market design as given by ECC. NEPRA Act provides a legal framework and CTBCM is detailed design that enables trading within that framework.
In wholesale market, bulk volumes are traded, and therefore, large consumers will have choice to purchase from any supplier. In CTBCM generators will be centrally dispatched and the SO will establish the Marginal Clearing Price (MCP) or market index. Mechanism will be available for allowing trade between traders, suppliers, consumers and generators.
There are 2000 Bulk consumers representing 16% sales volume
#11 Explain Examples of Suppliers, Traders and BPC on the Board
SO:Manages the real-time operation of the electricity grid, ensuring reliability and stability by dispatching generation and balancing supply and demand.
Market operator: Facilitates the trading of electricity in wholesale markets, ensuring fairness and efficiency by overseeing transactions, setting prices, and enforcing market rules.
#13 IAA: Facilitates competitive auctions for the procurement of additional capacity or energy in the electricity market
Ensures transparency, fairness, and efficiency in the auction process, allowing market participants to bid for resources in a competitive and non-discriminatory manner
-Legacy Generation (Existing PPAs)
Bilateral contracting with strategic power projects
service provider includes all players which enabled the trade in the market but do not have a commercial interest in the market such as transmission distribution companies into
#14 - SO and MO are technical and commercial pillars of wholesale market
- Focus more on Participants and MO
#16 Tell them 80% of cost is generation (it’s procurement surplus/deficit, contracts nature, operations)
For any power sector in-order to achieve, the Energy Trilma of Affordability, Availablity and Financial self sustainability, its important that its framework is well current and aligned…..
Same key issues that existed 3 decades back

#18 Lets talk about the salient features of the upcoming wholesale market regarding how the trading will be conducted.
#19 Credibility of the market Operator is of paramount importance therefore its independence is key to achieve the goals of the market, otherwise no body would trust the market
The System Operator is the backbone of the market and therefore must be strenthegned to improve its operations
Dispatch will be converted to tool based instead of manual operations
To kill the boom and bust cycles, capacity obligations are introduced to procure sufficient capacity
IAA will be created to facilitate discos in new procurements
Transactions in the market will be covered through credit covers
Govt support will be available for some weaker discos until these are reformed
As in all competitive electicity markets, there are always imbalances between the committed quatitites and actual quantities. So balancing mechansims have been deveised to setle these imbalances on market prices
#20 Predictability, clarity and alighment of legal and policy framework is very important, therefore new rules and regualtiosn will be established
One of the most important aspect in any transition is the integration of the legacy contracts into the market. There are 6 to 8 methods and we have analysed all in detail. And the practical solution for paksistan is the commercial allocation to all discos.
New contracts will be much more flexible

#32 - Decision on Market Structure
Strategic Plan 1992 provided a roadmap to move towards unbundling, competition and privatization
Multi buyer market is a pre condition to privatization for Governance improvement
All efficiencies and WE ARE EXAPNDING AND attraction of private capital will come through operationalizing a transparent, credible and well functioning wholesale market.
#46 Differentiate between Law, Policy, Regulations and Contracts
Answer why legal, policy, regulatory framework is important (from planning of assets, to procurement of power, to charging of consumers, and meeting the reliability and quality standards) all details are part of this framework
