7. Network codes implementation

8. The code families https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUjRJ_a93Pc
Network codes are a set of rules drafted by ENTSO-E, with guidance from the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER), to facilitate the harmonisation, integration and efficiency of the European electricity market. Each network code is an integral part of the drive towards completion of the internal energy market, and achieving the European Union’s energy objectives of:
at least 40% cut in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels.
at least a 27% share of renewable energy consumption.
at least 27% energy savings compared with the business-as-usual scenario.

20. Why ENTSO-E uses the CIM
ESMP and CGMES

21. So why should we use the CIM?

22. So why should we use the CIM?
Question appeared already in 2009 when ENTSO-E was mandated to build the Transparency Platform and the Ten-Year-Network-Development-Plan (TYNDP)
In these two projects, 43 TSOs needs to send their data to a central platform (which need to understand them)
Therefore, a standardized format is needed for the data exchanges.
In 2012, ENTSO-E choose to use the CIM

23. How ENTSO-E became a proactive user of the CIM
ENTSO-E has Working Groups of TSOs expert to work on the data formats and liaises with IEC TC57 WG13-WG14 and WG16
ENTSO-E maintains close collaboration with Network code drafting, implementation project and CIM profile development
ENTSO-E follows step-by-step approach from use case to sequence diagram to profile

31. Challenges and future developments
More and more business process link the grid model and the electricity market
CGMES was first built for grid planning, some further improvement will be needed for system operation
Even when there's none left, there are still some: after the network codes will come the Clean energy package (4th package)
Clean Energy Package is more oriented towards DSO:
Network codes on distributed flexibilities?
CIM for retail market?
CGMES for DSO use cases?
CIM to support TSO/DSO data exchanges?
ENTSO-E participates to the H2020 EU funded project TDX ASSIST
ENTSO-E participates to the SGTF on data format and procedures
