Why energy producers need route to market services

Stability in a volatile world

Energy markets are becoming increasingly volatile, whilst consumption can be forecasted, generation often cannot. Route to Market services provide the forecasting expertise, market communication, and risk management that transform unpredictable generation into stable revenue streams.

Professional risk management

Individual producers face significant balancing obligations and market exposure. Through our aggregated portfolio approach, even small-scale producers benefit from professional risk handling and economies of scale that would be impossible to achieve independently.

Market access without complexity

Accessing multiple energy markets requires sophisticated forecasting, trading expertise, and regulatory compliance. Route to Market services provide seamless market participation without the complexity of direct market engagement or licensing requirements.

Post-subsidy revenue security

After end of public support assets lose access to feed-in tariffs and subsidies. Route to Market services ensure smooth transitions to market-based revenue, maintaining profitability and compliance in the merchant market environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is route to market?

Route to market encompasses the services and strategies that enable renewable energy producers to sell their electricity in energy markets. This includes market access, forecasting, balancing, and optimisation services that maximise revenue whilst managing market volatility and regulatory compliance.

How do route-to-market services differ from PPAs?

PPAs provide fixed-price contracts for energy sales, whilst route-to-market services optimise revenue through active market participation. Route-to-market services can complement PPAs by managing uncontracted volumes or provide full merchant market exposure with professional risk management.

What are balancing obligations?

Balancing obligations require generators to bear the cost of differences between forecasted and actual generation. Route-to-market services manage these obligations through professional forecasting, portfolio aggregation, and market positioning that minimises balancing costs.

Can small-scale producers benefit from route-to-market services?

Yes, portfolio aggregation enables small-scale producers to benefit from professional market access and risk management that would be impossible to achieve independently. This includes economies of scale, sophisticated forecasting, and professional trading expertise.

What happens when subsidies end?

After subsidy periods end, assets must transition to market-based revenue. Route-to-market services ensure smooth transitions through market positioning, revenue optimisation, and ongoing support that maintains profitability in merchant market conditions.

How do you handle different asset types?

Each technology requires specific market strategies. Wind and solar need sophisticated forecasting for variable generation, whilst dispatchable assets like hydro and biogas can optimise across multiple markets. Storage assets benefit from multi-market revenue stacking strategies.
