NIV Chasing

Net Imbalance Volume (NIV) Chasing is a strategy used to capitalise on system imbalances in real time, without the need for executing traditional trades. It involves making the decision to run an asset to take advantage of imbalance prices, which occur when supply and demand deviate from predicted levels. By responding quickly to price signals that reflect these imbalances, operators can generate additional value from their energy assets. Success in NIV chasing relies on accurate forecasting of market conditions and a swift, automated response.
