4. 4XIX Florence Forum, 13-14 December 2010 Criteria from Regulation According to Regulation (EC) No. 714/2009, the TYNDP shall ensure: Non-discrimination Effective competition Efficient and secure functioning of the internal electricity market Sufficient level of cross-border interconnection open to TPA The planning process should be smooth, efficient, consistent and transparent

5. 5XIX Florence Forum, 13-14 December 2010 Criteria - Details Scenarios have been prepared and applied Modelling of integrated network has been made applying bottom-up and top-down approaches Generation outlooks have been prepared Assessment of the resilience of the system Consultation of all relevant stakeholders has been executed and outcome of these consultations has been documented Coherence between national, regional and Community- wide ten-year network development plan is met Monitoring report on implementation of the plans has been prepared

6. 6XIX Florence Forum, 13-14 December 2010 Key Issues to be Improved Only two scenarios  enhanced scenario development needed Network and market modelling shall serve as the basis for the project selection Top-down approach and a comprehensive assessment of resilience are needed Many topics addressed, but a clear connection between topics needs to be added Comprehensive list of projects  prioritisation is required Integration of third party projects

7. 7XIX Florence Forum, 13-14 December 2010 Conclusions / Next Steps ERGEG appreciates ENTSO-E’s initiative to provide a pilot TYNDP and the effort to provide a comprehensive view of key drivers for the development of the transmission system Further challenges identified Social acceptance Permission procedures ERGEG will continue with discussions and further support and guide ENTSO-E in the development of the TYNDP, also within the scope of the EIP
