Nominations
A nomination is the hourly energy plan a participant sends so the position can be scheduled against the market and the grid.

Why it matters
Trades on ALPEX are not the same as a grid schedule. Nomination is the step that turns a market result and an internal plan into the position used for imbalance.
Late or wrong nominations create imbalance even when the forecast was good.
Gates, formats and who may nominate are official. This page explains the desk meaning, not the XML or the TSO portal.
How it works
The BRP (or the party delegated under the rules) sends the hourly plan for production, consumption and trade.
Scheduling turns accepted nominations into the schedule compared with meters. ALPEX results feed that plan; they do not replace it.
Deadlines sit in OST / ALPEX procedures. Provide those PDFs to list the clocks.

TradingDesk context
TradingDesk Market Operations is built around the nomination window. The Wiki page is the definition; the desk is the hour that is about to close.
