What the NETA Reports Web-Service Provides
What is the NETA Reports Web-Service ?
The NETA Reports website is the front end for a web service
that provides access to data from the England and Wales wholesale electricity
market under a licence arrangement with Elexon.
Using this web site and associated software services it is possible to view
settlement and metering data from the England and Wales wholesale electricity
market.
What Exactly do I get for my Subscription ?
The NETA Reports web-service focuses on doing the specialist and difficult
task of fetching data files from Elexon, decoding those data files into
meaningful data, putting it in a database, maintaining the hardware and
software and providing an interface for getting that data out again.
The delivery of the functionality of the service has been broken into four
phases.
There are two subscription levels.
The basic subscription level allows the user to view data in easy to understand web pages.
Phase 1 functionality is all in the basic subscription level.
The enhanced subscription level allows the user to view data summarised by BSC party,
fuel type and many other methods. Phase 2 and 3 functionality is mostly in the enhanced subscription
level.
