Which type of data is included in the OASIS network?

The OASIS (Open Access Same-Time Information System) network primarily focuses on providing information regarding the Available Transfer Capability (ATC) of transmission systems. ATC is a critical component for maintaining the reliability and efficiency of electricity markets, as it indicates the maximum amount of electricity that can be transferred over a transmission network from one area to another while ensuring that the system remains within operational limits.

By providing up-to-date ATC information, OASIS facilitates non-discriminatory access to transmission services, allowing market participants to understand the capacity available for transactions across the grid. This transparency helps in planning, operation, and market activities related to electricity transmission.

Although other types of data, such as real-time weather conditions, equipment operational status, and contractual obligations, are important in the broader context of electricity transmission and market operations, they are not the primary focus of the OASIS network. OASIS is specifically designed to support the efficient functioning of transmission services through the communication of ATC, which is essential for coordinating market transactions and ensuring system reliability.
