Changes to how some BSC Portal reports are accessed
The following datasets will no longer be published on the following Elexon BSC Portal pages from Thursday 4 May 2023. This is due to the internal migration of our Settlement Administration Agent (SAA) system. However, replacement pages have been created to enable you to access the datasets.
Datasets affected
The following datasets will no longer be published on the following Elexon BSC Portal pages from Thursday 4 May 2023.
- System Sell Price (SSP) / System Buy Price (SBP) / Net Imbalance Volume (NIV)
- Market Index Price and Volume
- Historic Transmission Loss Multiplier (TLM) Data
- Residual Cashflow Reallocation Cashflow
- Party Imbalance History
Please note that the BSC Portal webpages where this data is shown will also no longer function including permalinks, and pre-scripted URLs. Existing bookmarks to these pages and any existing data connections to these pages and their datasets will no longer function.
Alternative data source
The following replacement BSC Portal pages have been created to access these datasets (you will be required to log in to access these links):
- System Price and Net Imbalance Volume (Home > Financial and Credit > System Prices > System Price and Net Imbalance Volume)
- Market Index Price ( Home > Operational Data > Market Index Price)
- TLM Data (Home > Operational Data > TLM Data)
- Residual Cashflow Reallocation Cashflow (RCRC) (Home > Operational Data > Residual Cashflow Reallocation Cashflow (RCRC))
- Market Reports (Home > Operational Data > Market Reports)
These replacement datasets will be refreshed each week, but this frequency will increase to daily from June 2023.
New pre-scripted URLs for automation will also be made available at this time. In the interim, these datasets can only be downloaded manually.
