Geoplin offers balancing services in accordance with the needs of customers and the predictability of their consumption. Large industrial customers may independently forecast their daily natural gas consumption, and thus help optimise the costs of deviations from the balance group and reduce natural gas costs when a precise forecast is made. Geoplin offers other customers the comprehensive service of equalising the price of natural gas.
A balance group is a group of one or more market players with the accompanying receipt-delivery points, which is created by a natural gas supplier and for which the market organiser calculates the balance of energy inflows and outflows. A balance group is part of a balance scheme and includes a balance statement, which in turn includes the monitoring and billing of deviations from the delivery and consumption of natural gas with respect to schedules.
For inclusion in a balance group, a supplier issues a customer consent, provided that the latter has a valid agreement on the supply of natural gas.
