Lecture on gas consumption temperature forecast

Mr. Dipl.- Ing. Gerhard Jost gave a lecture on “Improving SLP allocation by using a special gas consumption temperature forecast”  as part of the networking event Praxisforum Energie, organised by Kisters AG, on June 06, 2018 in Potsdam.  Besides daily mean temperature gas consumption temperature forecast is taking additional parameters into account, such as humidity and sunshine duration. This allows a more precise allocation and helps to reduce standard power requirements. This method was developed in a research project run by BDEW and DWD and is now part of the cooperation agreement X (KOV X). Meteorological services are now beginning to add that forecast to their service for network operators. According to first results deviation between forecast and supply could be reduced by 30%.
