NCP - represents details of the hydroelectric systems (water balance for hydro plants in cascade, pumping, unit commitment, irrigation, tunnel deviations etc.), thermoelectric plants (unit commitment, minimum uptime and downtime, multiple fuels, efficiency curves), transmission grids (Kirchhoff laws, quadratic losses, security constraints etc.) and end-of-week terminal conditions (interface with SDDP).
NCP is used in several countries in South and Central America by Wholesale Market Administrators (to set hourly prices) and System Operators (interface with real time dispatch).

Balance - models that determines least costs instructions (power increase/decrease) that will guarantee that self-scheduled generation matches the demand in balancing markets. Balance is currently used in Turkey as the day ahead dispatch tool.
