Electricity Regional Initiative – Convergence and Coherence of the Regional Development Ms Asta Sihvonen-Punkka Chair of the ERGEG Electricity Focus Group XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007

2 ERI Convergence and Coherence  Background  Process on track  Progress achieved  Convergence and Coherence  Congestion management  Balancing markets  Transparency  Next steps Structure of presentation

3 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Background – What do we want to achieve? PRACTICAL OUTPUT: - IDENTIFICATION of existing barriers to entry/obstacles to regional market integration (Set Priorities) - PROPOSITION of concrete and practical improvements, with time schedule, to remove those obstacles (Action plan, MoU) - IMPLEMENTATION of those practical improvements at a regional level (Effective Implementation) ENSURE COORDINATION AND COHERENCE BETWEEN REGIONS  TOWARDS A SINGLE MARKET

4 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Process on track  7 electricity regions have been established and are actively working to contribute to the process  Priorities identified in all 7 regions  Work organized  European Commission involvement and support  Stakeholders actively involved, TSOs supporting the Regional Initiatives  ERGEG commitment to transparency -> e.g. ERGEG website (

5 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Relevant developments since XIII Florence  Amended Congestion Management Guidelines entered into force 1 December 2006  Accession of Bulgaria and Romania 1 January 2007  Strategic Energy Review – 3 rd Package 10 January 2007  ERGEG Regional Initiatives Conference and Annual Report end of March 2007  Ongoing dialogue EU - Switzerland

10 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Progress achieved – concrete results Central-South & South-West regions Central-South  Jan 07 - Implementation of bilateral coordinated explicit auctions  Mar 07 - New workplan agreed by Regulators and TSOs  July 07 – agreement on a workplan towards harmonized explicit auction rules for 2008 allocations and implementation of intra-day allocation South-West  Jul 07 - Launching of MIBEL  Jul 07 - Implementation of a secondary capacity market on the French-Spanish market  Aug 07 - Publication of the Regulators’ regional Action Plan

11 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Progress achieved – concrete results Central-East Region  Congestion Management – common agreement to go towards flow based capacity allocations and establishment of common auction office in Munich  Project plan provided by TSOs and establishment of 2 TSO working groups  first draft results on capacity calculation – still to be checked  Competition status of Auction Office is tackled  Target date January 2008 due to different issues to overcome not feasible  Transparency report prepared by Regulatory Authorities for further discussion

12 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Coherence and Convergence – are regions converging to single market?  Are the same issues tackled on the way towards a single market?  Are the solutions to these issues coherent to the extent needed?  In most regions the work is focused on  Congestion management (including transmission capacity calculation as well as long and medium term, day ahead and intra-day capacity allocation)  Balancing  Transparency

13 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence A growing consensus in terms of target congestion management methods  Capacity calculation: towards a common transmission model with regionally-calculated PTDF matrix (against the current bilaterally-calculated NTC)  Long term and medium term allocation: towards a single auction platform with harmonized auction rules, IT interface, and products  Day-ahead: towards a market coupling model  Intraday: towards a continuous intraday platform

14 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Long term and medium term allocation of capacity  At most borders annual and monthly explicit auctions for physical capacity rights take place  developments in several regions indicate that for long and medium term capacity allocation explicit auctions will be the CM solution for the next few years  Necessary to ensure that development of the design of explicit auctions occur in a compatible way  Towards a single auction platform with harmonized auction rules, IT interface, and products  Harmonisation could lead to the implementation of an auction office in charge of explicit auctions

15 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Day ahead capacity allocation  Implicit auctions applied for day ahead capacity allocation in the Nordic area, between France-Belgium-the Netherlands and the Kontek Cable (Denmark East-Germany)  A majority of regions are proceeding with implicit auctions (except France-UK-Ireland and Central-East)  It is widely recognised that for the day-ahead timeframe implicit allocation methods are more efficient than explicit  Coexistence of different implicit auctions (market splitting, market coupling)  Coexistence of implicit and explicit auctions

16 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Intraday  Cross-border intraday allocation mechanisms implemented in the EU-Nordic countries of Northern region, the French interconnections (except IFA and France-Italy) and the German-Swiss interconnections  Central-West region is planning to revise intraday allocation mechanism similar to the Northern Region  Different options still on the table, most stakeholders support continuous trading

17 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Balancing  Some interesting local or regional initiatives for a better integration of Balancing Mechanisms  Currently in Nordic countries and France it is possible for market players in neighbouring countries to participate in the national balancing market  The creation or enhancement of trading balancing services across borders is being pursued by the Central-West, FUI, South-West and Northern regions  Projects still at their beginning  not yet clear how regions plan to integrate balancing markets and the extent to which these might or might not be coherent  A formal legal basis would facilitate convergence further

18 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Transparency  Common approach is of high importance  The feasibility of implementation of better transparency is heavily influenced by the legal framework in each country  Assessment of transparency requirements in some regions has helped produce a more consistent approach across the EU  Three regions (Central-West, Northern and Central-East) are striving for the adoption of the same approach  Interregional compatibility  Additional work on consistency and a formal legal basis would facilitate convergence further

19 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Coherence and Convergence: are there well identified obstacles?  Regulatory gap that could delay the overall integration process  Differences in competences of regulators, possibilities for cross- border cooperation and action  Lack of flexibility in some national legislation  How a single regional auction office would be regulated? Etc.  Differences in market designs  e.g. absence of a liquid and transparent day-ahead reference price in some EU countries, diversity of status and roles of existing power exchanges in Europe, etc.  Resources: regulators, TSOs, stakeholders often involved in several regions, topics

20 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Looking forward  Timely implementation of solutions requires continued commitment of stakeholders especially TSOs to meet the planned timeframes in particular in accordance with the legal framework  Public consultation on ERI Convergence and Coherence Report from July until 12th October (extended deadline)  ERGEG Regional Initiative Annual Conference and Annual Report April 2008  Invites continued support and involvement :  Stay informed – meetings, publications, online  Be Heard – consultations, bilateral contacts  Take Action – joint the Stakeholder Group for your region

21 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Coherence and Convergence Report: Preliminary views on report’s issues  General comments:  Actors involved in ERI process welcome the opportunity to express views and wish to continue a structured dialogue and consultation with ERGEG and other parties on the various topics tackled in the report  Special thanks for the first answers received (APG, Europex, EFET)  On capacity calculation, responses stress:  The need for transparency, harmonization and coordination of capacity calculation methods. In particular, the assumptions used in the calculation process should be clearly stated  Objective of maximizing capacities, in particular transmission rights of longer maturity  Long and medium term capacity allocation :  The need for a harmonization of auctions rules and platforms, in particular the need for homogenous products (e.g. same degree of firmness)  Coexistence of PTR and FTR possible but they need to be traded in the same way and fully harmonized in terms of contractual structure

22 XIV Florence Forum Florence September 2007 ERI Convergence and Coherence Coherence and Convergence Report: Preliminary views on report’s issues  Day-ahead capacity allocation  Should be implicit auctions (market splitting and market coupling) involving power exchanges  Market coupling or market splitting can coexist. Linking or merging market coupling requires a high degree of compatibility and ultimately complete harmonization of products and contractual terms  Intraday  Regions should actively pursue the implementation of continuous trading  Balancing  “TSO to TSO” and “Actor to TSO” balancing trade can coexist
