Received: 8 December 2020; Accepted: 14 December 2020; Published: 17 December 2020 Abstract: The European Commission’s Target Model’s main objective is to integrate European electricity markets, leading to a single internal energy market and guaranteeing the instantaneous balance between electricity generation and demand. According to the target model for electricity trading, proposed by the European Network Transmission System Operators for Electricity (ENTSO-E), within each zone, electricity can be traded freely without taking into consideration network limitations. In contrast, for cross-border trading, the exchanges with other market areas are taken into account. Cross-border trade poses a further burden on the interconnection lines, resulting in increasing network congestion, which in turn restricts electricity trading. Thus, calculating the available capacity for trade has a significant ramification on the market. Today, the Available Transfer Capacity (ATC) mechanism dominates cross-border trading, but this methodology may be replaced by the Flow-Based (FB) approach across Europe.

  • Successful Launch of Swe Common Synchronised Operations with Nwe Price
    North-Western Price Coupling of South-Western Europe Regions Europe SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH OF SWE COMMON SYNCHRONISED OPERATIONS WITH NWE PRICE COUPLING 4 February 2014. The South-Western Europe (SWE) and North-Western Europe (NWE) day-ahead price coupling project partners are pleased to announce the successful launch of common synchronised operations of NWE and SWE day-ahead markets. Full price coupling on the French-Spanish border will be launched at a later stage. This has been decided by the project partners, following common testing and alignment of Gate Closure Times. Both projects operate using the systems and procedures provided by the Price coupling of Regions (PCR) initiative. This launch is a significant step towards an integrated European power market. In pursuit of European day-ahead Price coupling, NWE and SWE have designed a step-by-step approach to integrate the Iberian market and NWE. Steps to integrate the day-ahead markets in the SWE and NWE regions have been underway since April 2013, addressing the joint testing of systems and operational procedures for the combined NWE and SWE regions. Alignment of timings in the SWE and NWE day-ahead markets successfully took place on 15 October 2013, when the Iberian day-ahead Gate Closure Time was switched to 12h00 CET. The penultimate step was achieved on 4 February with the go-live of common synchronised operations of the NWE and SWE projects for delivery on 5 February 2014. SWE uses the same PCR systems and operational procedures as NWE. For the time being, PCR will operate without offering capacity at the French-Spanish border to the price coupling, so the daily explicit auction on this border will be maintained as it is today.

  • UCTE Transmission Development Plan
    UCTE Transmission Development Plan Edition 2008 union for the co-ordination of transmission of electricity Table of contents Executive Summary 3 1 Introduction 5 2 Evolution of the UCTE Generation-Load Balance 12 3 Development of Interconnections 19 4 Transmission Network Development 37 Appendix 1 39 Detailed Information on Interconnection Projects Appendix 2 66 UCTE Members Internal Grid Development EXecutiVE summaRY Executive Summary In order to meet the objectives of the European energy policy, the transmission grid must be devel- oped while maximizing security and minimizing the total cost ( from generation to retail ). Grid devel- opment is influenced by two interrelated parameters: consumption and generation. If consumption is expected to follow a rather low growth rate as a result of improved energy efficiency, generation is affected by major changes resulting from the development of renewable energy sources and the renewal of the oldest thermal plants. The UCTE Transmission System Operators ( TSOs ) therefore have two objectives: maximising the security of supply and integrating the market in order to allow an efficient use of the generation and by this way minimise total costs. Over the next 10 years, net installed generation capacity in UCTE attributable to both new projects already submitted to the TSOs and expected decommissioning of existing plants or attributable to energy policy objectives amounts be approximately 220 GW ( including 80 GW of wind power ). At the same time, consumption over the same period is forecasted to increase by approximately 90 GW. Since rising generation capacity is strongly linked to market conditions, there is almost certain that all generation projects submitted to the TSOs will not be confirmed.
