Introduction: Sustainable IT Monitoring & Grid Signals
Lesson 1 of the Sustainable IT Monitoring Course
Marginal
From power markets to reality: Does the marginal power plant really exist?
Indisputably, the marginal signal holds the theoretical power to represent emissions physically caused when more electricity is requested. However, this concept does not translate well to the reality of grid operations. It is trying to force a simplified picture onto an exceedingly complex system and is bound to be inaccurate because of that.
