Earn money on the imbalance market
with Flex Trading Pro
Covolt automatically trades on your behalf in the imbalance market—day and night—without requiring any trading experience.
A 100 kW+ battery has enormous capacity. But without active market management, it doesn’t generate any revenue—even though the imbalance market offers daily opportunities. Flex Trading Pro automatically deploys your capacity in the day-ahead, imbalance, and aFRR markets. Covolt manages operations in real time based on imbalance prices, bids on aFRR with TenneT, and handles daily nominations. No trading experience required, no manual intervention needed.
How it works:
- We submit daily nominations on the day-ahead market
- Our algorithms continuously predict the imbalance price
- During periods of high price spikes → discharge as much as possible for maximum yield
- When prices drop significantly → charge as much as possible at low cost
- When prices are moderate → optimizing self-consumption
- In addition, we bid on your behalf in the aFRR market to generate additional returns
Features:
- Real-time control based on price forecasts
- Multimarket strategy: imbalance + aFRR + day-ahead nominations
- Highest yield potential
- Protection during control state 2 through the use of aFRR
