Directie Toezicht Energie 11 Roadmap GRI NW Robert Spencer, NMa/DTe

Directie Toezicht Energie 22 Contents Highlights of the Roadmap Results of the Consultation Role of the RCC within the new structure ?

Directie Toezicht Energie 33 Recap - Why the Roadmap ? 1/2 Progress issues identified at last SG  Not enough Focus and coordination  Too many Priorities  Need for more efficient organisation of work Increase ROE = Higher rate of return on effort

Directie Toezicht Energie 44 Recap - Why the Roadmap ? Other observations – general review Good successes but slow progress  Problems not always tackled by the right people  Initiative competing for resources  Communication “gaps”  Sufficient high-level commitment available ?

Directie Toezicht Energie 55 Roadmap Principles Working towards a common “end-game” Higher Return on Effort Improved project management approach Taking into account EU Developments Generate sufficient High Level commitment Focus on practical issues Avoid duplication of on-going work Stepping stone to European internal market

Directie Toezicht Energie 66 Proces Consultants –Geert Joosten and David Halldearn Many interviews with relevant stakeholders Focus group to provide high-level guidance Workshops Broad consultation of NW-E stakeholders

Directie Toezicht Energie 77 Results Focus on only two main priorities –Capacity –Transparency Strengthen Regional decision making –RCC+ (linking into ERGEG and Agency) –Regional TSO cooperation (linking into GTE+) Program Board –improve management of projects –Help solve difficult issues efficiently –Generate High-level commitment

Directie Toezicht Energie 88 Less Priorities, More Focus: Capacity Capacity: working towards a goal to make it  readily available,  easily tradable,  at fair prices and  on a non-discriminatory basis Capacity: both existing and new

Directie Toezicht Energie 99 Transparency enables better risk management It facilitates trading Therefore: continue the work that is being done… …and review the achieved results Less Priorities, More Focus: Transparency

Directie Toezicht Energie 10 Question to the SG Regional (coordination of) decision making is absolutely necessary to improve and ensure market integration, liquidity and timely investments –Do you agree?

Directie Toezicht Energie 11 Question to the SG This is possible given current structures and legislation –Do you agree?

Directie Toezicht Energie 12 Outcomes Consultation – Very Positive High level of consensus –“End-game” –Priorities –Work Structure From all involved organisations (Stakeholders, Regulators, TSOs) High level support (board-room level) Support from ministries

Directie Toezicht Energie 13 Outcomes Consultation - Some Concerns Should we have more focus? Should we take on board more priorities –E.g. Balancing Who is running the show? Is the Program Board only adding to an already cluttered organisational structure? (GTE+, Agency, RCC+, regional TSOs, Gas platform)

Directie Toezicht Energie 14 Outcomes Consultation - Some Concerns Should we have more focus? –TSOs have agreed to plan Should we take on board more priorities –Balancing will be addressed H Who is running the show? –This is still the ERGEG initiative but it takes all parties to achieve results Is the Program Board only adding to an already cluttered organisational structure? –PB to help solve issues at the right level and guide progress of work

Directie Toezicht Energie 15 GRI NW is part of European Developments Our work is both confined and triggered by European Developments

Directie Toezicht Energie 16 New Structure: how is it built up

Directie Toezicht Energie 17 New Structure: The Role of Programme Board Structure adapted to needs identified Programme Management Generating High-Level commitment Monitoring Process Briding the communication between stakeholders Addressing problems at the appropriate level

Directie Toezicht Energie 18 With the right people the Program Board will make a difference in bringing timely results –Do you agree? Question to the SG

Directie Toezicht Energie 19 New Structure: The Role of the RCC+ A step up from the RCC’s current role A platform where information is shared, common views are developed and decisions concerning cross-border issues are discussed and where possible aligned More efficient: allow RCC+ to focus on regional regulatory issues less on facilitating the process as well As an intermediate solution in anticipation of European Agency overseeing developments and link to ERGEG and process to European internal market

Directie Toezicht Energie 20 Has your organisation encountered actual cross-border issues where interaction with more than one regulator would be required to solve or to obtain approval –Green = yes, Red = no Question to the SG

Directie Toezicht Energie 21 If so, did you find this process sufficiently efficient to facilitate your endeavors –Green = yes, Red = no Question to the SG

Directie Toezicht Energie 22 Thank you for your attention
