DatasetsFrequency Containment Reserve for Normal operation, activated

The values in the data have been erroneously instantaneous values. From February 21, 2024, the data are correct 15-minute averages. Hourly values can be found correctly on the European transparency platform: https://transparency.entsoe.eu/balancing/r2/activationAndActivatedBalancingReserves/show Activated Frequency Containment Reserve for Normal operation (FCR-N) is published one hour after the hour in question, for example the value for hour 07-08 is published at 9 o'clock. FCR-N is the frequency containment reserve used in the Nordic synchronous system that aims to keep the frequency in normal frequency range between 49,9 - 50,1 Hz. Activated FCR-N volume (MWh) is calculated on the basis of the frequency in the Nordic synchronous system and maintained Finnish FCR-N capacity. Value is activated net average power. Positive value means that the frequency has been in average below 50,0 Hz during the hour, and reserve has been activated as up-regulation. Respectively, negative value means that the frequency has been in average above 50,0 Hz, and reserve has been activated as down-regulation. The average value displayed every 15 minutes is the average of the past 15 minutes, so for example the value at 14.15 is the average value from 14.00 to 14.15. The Data before 13.06.2023 is in hourly resolution.
