It takes time to harmonise the market Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants
EU market liberalisation Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Degree of Market Concentration in the EU Power Sector HHI is the Herfindahl- Hirschman Index which measures market concentration by capacity. It is calculated as the sum of the square market shares of individual companies
EU targets & Climate and Energy Policy 2030 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Source: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Renewable Energy Energy Efficiency - 20% 20% <= - 40% >= 27% Interconnection 10%>= 15 %
10% power interconnection target Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Source: Security of supply Costs savings on capacity Reduce power prices Increase RE penetration EU employed rd 1.2m people in REs in 2012 Defined on October 2014
Ex-course Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Merit Order Effect on the spot market Source: EWEA
Lesson 1 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Transmission capacity calculation and allocation methods Dispatch optimisation decisions Redirect el flows between congested areas either by direct trading or Splitting same priced congested areas into two or more areas Curtailing electricity flows Improved congestion management across borders
Lesson 2 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants TSOs incure in costs for procuring reserves and/or for energy used to cover imbalances (penalties) Balancing is limited to national or close control zones Transmission losses are kept low National design Complexity of predicting such flows in the EU grid Aggregation of control zones into larger geographical areas for trading The more variable REs in operation over a larger geographical area, the smaller the impact of variability on system operation
Lesson 3 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants The European Transmission Model (TM) foresees “continuous-trading” rather than fixed auctions with gate closures Trading closer to real-time delivery
Lesson 4 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Market coupling mechanisms used in the EU “ongoing initiative” Larger market place in general 2010: CWE (market coupling BE, NL, LX, FR & DE) 2010: CWE (market coupling BE, NL, LX, FR & DE)
Lesson 4 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Larger market place in general
Lesson 5 Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Common European Grid Model (CGM), in which the Flow-Based transmission capacity Allocation (FBA) Common set of market rules All relationships between all interconnectors of a network Reduces balancing costs if high variable RES penetration and reduces unscheduled power flows (loop flows) FBA + CGM: open the possibility of linking dynamic grid management with the market to maximize the use of new and existing assets Costs savings Costs savings

Benefit: reduced power prices Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Source: Booz&Co “Benefits of Integrated European Energy Market”; prepared for Directorate-General Energy EC, July 20, 2013 Well-connected European energy grids will translate into direct savings for the consumer. EU consumers could, each year, save €12-40 billion if energy markets are fully integrated Well-connected European energy grids will translate into direct savings for the consumer. EU consumers could, each year, save €12-40 billion if energy markets are fully integrated
Benefit: reduced power prices Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Wholese Price changes with cross-boarder trading
View into the future Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants
View in the future Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Increased need to control smart grids with the proliferation of electric vehicles
Needs for the future… Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Communication moves down to the customer Decentralised energy management Distribution automation Common data models and services Plug & play Use of existing infrastructure Smart metering Efficient engineering Interoperbility Telecommunication provider WEB services Distribution line carrier
Conclusion for EU & South East Asia Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants “get the grid right” “RES for balancing” “new deal for consumers” clever DSOs Six cross-border power grid interconnections are currently in operation with many more under construction (EIA; 2015); More interconnections will allow for a smoothing effect between weather patterns in differenct countries Retail market priorities: consumer empowerment, smart homes & networks and data management; Dynamic pricing linked to wholesale prices Retail market priorities: consumer empowerment, smart homes & networks and data management; Dynamic pricing linked to wholesale prices DSOs will not only hasve to make grids smarter, but actively operate and balance them Spatial planning better spatial distribution of renewables
Conclusion for South East Asia Funded by the European Union and implemented by a Consortium led by GOPA Consultants Six cross-border power grid interconnections are currently in operation with many more under construction (EIA; 2015); 120 million people lack access to electrity (EIA; 2015) USD36b in 2014 in fossil-fuel subsidies (EIA; 2015) It is not the EU28: manageable?
