Balancing Group Management

Balancing group management is a fundamental process for the commercial administration of gas volumes in the German gas market. A balancing group consolidates all entry points and exit points of a balancing group manager (BKV) within a market area. The primary objective of balancing group management is to ensure the equilibrium between the gas volumes injected into and withdrawn from a balancing group, thereby maintaining the stability of the gas network and providing the basis for both energy and financial settlement. Efficient balancing group management is essential for a liquid and transparent gas market.
Network operators (NB) are at the core of the data flow driving balancing group management. Key activities performed by network operators include:
The Enhancements for German Gas Suppliers provide comprehensive support for regulatory gas processes in accordance with the German Gas Cooperation Agreement (KoV). Seamlessly integrated into SAP S/4HANA Utilities, this solution extends the system with specific functionalities for gas suppliers and balancing group managers (BKV).
A key component includes modern SAP Fiori apps for executing, monitoring, and analyzing processes such as declaration reconciliation, shadow balancing, and data exchange via the SAP MaCo Cloud.
Reconciling received TSIMSG messages with expected or self-generated shadow declarations along with a clear visualization of the status of each declaration.
Providing an overview of received and sent messages from SAP Market Communication for Utilities (MaCo Cloud) in the Data Exchange Monitor, with a clear display of message contents for selected gas formats.
Comparing received allocation data with the results of shadow balancing. By visualizing discrepancies, volumes can be easily reviewed and validated.
