Dispatching Center Everything is under control, down to the smallest detail

CECOGEL, which stands for Control and Operation Centre for Power Generation, is the intermediary between our clients' generation facilities and REE, the sole transmission agent and operator of the Spanish electricity system.

On one hand, it collects signals from producers and sends them to REE, providing real-time information about each plant’s production. On the other hand, it receives REE’s production adjustment instructions and transmits them to the associated plants, ensuring a proper balance between supply and demand at the national level.

Axpo Iberia’s dispatching centre offers services to all types of generation facilities in Spain, including wind farms, hydroelectric plants, solar thermal plants, photovoltaic parks, cogeneration plants, biomass plants, and transformer substations. CECOGEL also can monitor any production plant globally.
