The daily Power Settlement process has never been an easy task: with unpredictable load forecasts, ISO/RTO data verification, ever changing market requirements and immature software applications. Today, that is changing. With the ISO and RTO markets maturing so have the systems to manage the daily shadow settlement business. Like the fast moving cell phone industry, the power shadow settlement industry has quickly evolved. If you are using older legacy applications or spreadsheets to manage your power business you should consider looking at the newer more affordable technologies that are offered.

Many clients have put a lot of time and effort to get a home-built or vendor system to do the basics. However, they do not have a system that gives them what they want. Today, software is more affordable than ever and pricing is flexible enough that one does not need to take on huge contractual risk to procure a solid settlement system. Today’s technologies are comprehensive, flexible and affordable enough to provide settlement professionals the functionality they want at a price they can afford.

Some important things that one should demand in a system are: an easy-to-use GUI interface, a reliable ISO/RTO data upload verification, and a visual Business Intelligence dashboard that allows one to see discrepancies in schedules versus plant output before they become penalties. Additionally, one should have reports that help them make better more informed decisions and software that is formula-driven with ISO/RTO charge codes embedded in the software for more accurate ISO/RTO shadow settlements.
