1. A method for operating an energy management system of a grid participant electrically connectable to an electrical grid at a grid connection point, the method comprising:
a) receiving data from an electricity exchange, the data characterizing a remuneration for a first service provided to the electrical grid by the grid participant and/or a remuneration for a second service obtained by the grid participant from the electrical grid;
b) determining a load profile for the grid participant as a function of the received data, wherein the energy management system at least temporarily operates the grid participant according to the determined load profile so the grid participant provides the power to the electrical grid and/or obtains the power from the electrical grid;
c) transmitting the load profile to the electricity exchange;
d) comparing an amount of power represented by the load profile as a setpoint power with an actual power output of the grid participant;
e) calculating a compensation based on any difference between the setpoint power and the actual power output determined by the comparison; and
f) controlling operation of the grid participant to minimize any penalty payments corresponding to the compensation.
