Electricity storage transaction settlement
United States' electricity markets follow a two-stage settlement design: a day-ahead market (DAM) and a real-time market (RTM). The DAM, covering the subsequent day's 24 trading intervals, requires bids to be placed by a specified closing time for each hour. . Disclosed is a centralized cloud energy storage system for massive and distributed users and a transaction settlement method thereof, a storage medium, and a terminal. We show that in integrated two-stage bidding, the real-time bids are independent of day-ahead settlements, while the day-ahead bids should be based on predicted real-time. . The proposed transaction settlement mechanism automatically updates users' energy imbalances and levies corresponding charges, thereby ensuring strict adherence to transaction contracts.
