BAL NC-compliant platform supporting TSOs' and Network Users' balancing activity on a rock-solid infrastructure.

BAL NC-OS is designed for natural gas markets that are introducing or upgrading market-based operation in balancing with the aim of gradual evolution towards a full market-based balancing regime.

We recommend our BAL NC-OS solutions for:

  • EU Member State countries who opted for an interim period in Balancing Network Code implementation.
  • Energy Community Member countries who wish to implement solutions compliant with EU regulations.
  • Countries in the rest of the world who are in an initial phase of market opening and wish to build up a liquid short-term market and market-based balancing regime.

BAL NC-OS full-scale solution acknowledges the fact that a natural gas market opening and development has different phases; it takes time for a short-term balancing market to become mature.

Therefore, we provide a Balancing Platform as an interim tool and a Trading Platform for mature short-term markets.

BAL NC-OS provides a real, competitive, transparent and EU-compliant market environment for all players, allowing them to easily control the ergonomically designed user interfaces without any special market experience and IT knowledge.
