Projects
Elering, Estonia’s transmission system operator (TSO) for electricity and natural gas, has long been a leader in digital innovation. Over the years, we have built a strong partnership with Elering across multiple projects, helping to modernize and streamline energy market operations.
Common Zone: Unifying the Baltic Gas Market
Our collaboration began in 2019 when Elering, together with Latvian TSO Conexus Baltic Grid, chose us to develop Common Zone, a unified transmission and balancing services platform for the Baltic gas market. This system integrates nomination, allocation, capacity management, and balancing operations in a single solution. In early 2023, we extended our cooperation for another 36 months to further enhance and optimize the platform.
Baltic Transparency Dashboard
In 2021, Elering, together with Latvia’s AST and Lithuania’s Litgrid. partnered with us to enhance the Baltic Transparency Dashboard for power market data. The project delivered a new architecture and improved data visualization, consolidating all relevant market data in a single location.
Meter Data Management
We completed our “Elering hat-trick” in the spring of 2022, when the TSO contracted us to improve its Meter Data Management (MDM) system. The challenge there was to extend the already existing functionalities in the operator’s MDM gas and electricity systems as well as to make new developments that could secure an overall improvement of both systems.
Estfeed Datahub
Shortly after, we were entrusted with providing the new architecture for Estfeed Datahub, transitioning it to a flexible, microservice-based architecture that enables energy data exchange across the electricity and gas markets.
Power Balancing
Our most recent project with Elering was the development and implementation of the Baltic Balancing Capacity Market (BBCM), together with our partner N-SIDE. This new market allows the Baltic TSOs - Elering, AST, and Litgrid - to procure electricity balancing capacity through daily auctions, ensuring that system reserves are available 24/7. The BBCM also facilitates cross-zonal capacity sharing, optimizing the use of resources across Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania while enhancing security of supply and strengthening the region’s energy independence.
About Elering
Elering AS is an Estonian electricity and gas transmission system operator (TSO) that connects producers, network operators and consumers, and combines them into a unified whole. A fully operational integrated system is also important for end consumers because only that can guarantee high-quality energy supply at reasonable costs, which is one of Elering’s major objectives.
The Estonian electricity system is connected via cross-border lines to Finland and Latvia. The transmission network comprises about 5,500 kilometers of transmission lines and 150 substations.
The gas transmission network consists of a nearly 900-kilometer-long gas pipeline, three gas metering stations and almost 40 gas distribution stations. The network is connected to the Finnish, Latvian and Russian gas systems.
Elering is committed to integrating Estonia’s energy infrastructure with European markets and advancing digital energy solutions.
