CU Registration

This process describes the registration of a controllable unit (CU) in the flexibility register as a Service Provider. It also includes grid validation for the system operator to validate the information provided.

A CU is considered new until the status is changed to active. Once grid validation is requested, any changes to the CU is considered an update, and handled by the update process. Grid validation on the CU level is done by the connecting system operator.

The connecting system operator will during the validation process be able to inform SP about missing details.

Prerequisites

• The service provider runs controllable unit lookup to check if CU exists in the flexibility information system
• Controllable Unit does not exist in the flexibility information system
• Service Provider knows the metering point id of the accounting point for the controllable unit
• Flexibility Information System knows
  • the system operator and end user of all metering points (from Elhub)
  • mapping of grid nodes in local markets to grid nodes in transmission system operator markets
• There is no national grid model that includes all metering point ids. Requires system operator to map metering points to grid nodes. If the service provider has the information about the grid node, they can include it when they register the controllable unit.
