Interoperable Transactive Retail Tariffs
© 2014 Baker Street Publishing, LLC. All Rights Reserved.
An example of a transactive retail tariff for a consumer/prosumer.
14
• Based on my typical usage, I automatically transact with one or more suppliers for a fixed quantity of energy and transport in each hour of the year(s) for a fixed monthly payment (subscription.)
• If I use less than I subscribed for in each hour then I am paid for the difference at an hourly spot price.
• If I use more than I subscribed for then I pay for the difference at an hourly spot price.
• At any time I can automatically buy or sell at current tendered prices.
