After entering into a capacity steering contract on request (CSC-A) or a capacity limitation contract on request (CLC-A), you must register your connection in GOPACS. The grid operator will then link your connection to the contract so it can be called off. When this happens, you will receive a notification at the email address you provided during your GOPACS registration. This guide explains step by step how to register.
Once you have registered with GOPACS, your connection has been prequalified and your contract has been added, you are ready to take part in congestion management. You will now start receiving activations: requests from the grid operator to adjust your consumption or feed-in at a specific time, in line with the agreements in your Capacity Steering Contract (CSC) or Capacity Limitation Contract (CLC). This manual explains, step by step, how to set up CSC or CLC activations via the GOPACS platform, and how to receive and process these activations in GOPACS.
Learn how to use your own Shapeshifter UFTP implementation to receive and process Capacity Steering Contract (CSC) and Alternative Transport Right (ATR) activations via GOPACS. This guide explains the basics of UFTP communication and provides practical guidance on integrating activation messages into your own systems and workflows.
NOTE:
Instead of using a Shapeshifter UFTP implementation, you can also retrieve the requested limits directly using the GOPACS Pull API. For more information, please refer to the manual Handling CSC Activations via the GOPACS Pull API.
View the manual for testing sending and receiving flex messages via the UFTP API here. The starting point is to initiate a message from the grid operator as a Trading Company in the GOPACS user interface.
When your company is registered on GOPACS, your grid connection is pre-qualified and your capacity steering contract (CSC) or capacity limiting contract (CLC, which we will call CSC in this document) has been added by your grid operator, you are ready to participate in day-ahead congestion management. Grid operators can activate your contract to request you to adjust your feed-in or off-take according to the agreements in your CSC. In this manual, you will read how you can set your company account to use the GOPACS Pull API and what is needed to receive the required capacity adjustments on the regarding grid connection when the contract has been activated by the grid operator.
