Contracting 2015 - Update
TF Balancing 26/3/2015
Hans Vandenbroucke
Elia organized a tender for 400 MW of tertiary control power
o Between 300-400MW R3 from generation
o Between 0-100MW R3 Dynamic Profile
The tender procedure resulted in allocation of 340MW R3PROD and 60MW R3DP.
One provider of R3PROD filed an appeal, resulting in a suspension of the tender results for both R3Prod and R3DP
(19/11/2015).
So that tertiary reserves could be available on 1/1/2015 to guarantee a secure operation of the grid, art. 12 quinquies of
the Electricity Law was used. Volumes and prices for R3Prod (split amongst the market parties who offered) were
imposed by a royal decree for R3Prod for a total of 340MW (19/12/2015).
The appeal was withdrawn, after which Elia contracted 60MW R3DP as resulting from the tender.

Frequency Containment Reserves (R1) is joint responsibility of all TSOs of RG Continental Europe.
• Joint action to stabilize frequency after occurrence of an imbalance in the Synchronous Area
Total volume of 3000 MW FCR within RG Continental Europe.
• Simultaneous outage of two of the largest power plants in RG CE.
• Split amongst TSOs is defined by ratio of net generation of Control Block / net generation of Synchroneous Area
Split of volumes is only determined end 2015 for next year
• The value of R1 to be contracted in 2016 is expected to be ~85MW
Dimensioning FCR (R1)
12 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Dimensioning of Frequency Restoration Reserves (R2+R3) at TSO level
• TSO is responsible to restore the balance of its Control Block within 15’
• The volumes of FRR depends on the expected imbalances of the Control Block
Volume of FRR - requirements
• Deterministic methodology : FRR must cover N-1 outage of a nuclear power plant
• Probabilistic methodology : FRR must cover 99,9% of expected imbalances
Volume of FRR will be the minimum volume resulting of both methodologies
• Compliancy with required control quality (ACE)
Used in the dimensioning methodology for aFRR
Dimensioning FRR (R2 + R3)
13 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Step 1 – System needs
• Calculation of the total expected imbalances in 2016
• Calculation of FRR volume needs required to cover 99,9% of these imbalances (R2+R3)
• Calculation of non socialised part of FRR volume to be delivered by the single Injection ARP
with nuclear units (Rn-1)
Step 2 – aFRR
• Calculation of expected variations of imbalances
• Determination of the aFRR (R2) volume required to have a good control quality
Step 3 – mFRR
• Determination of mFRR (R3) portfolio to be able to cover 99,9% of the system imbalances
Probabilistic dimensioning methodology FRR (R2+R3)
14 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Calculation of expected imbalances in 2016
• Based on observed system imbalance in 2014
• Additional forecasting errors due to increase of
renewable capacity
• Outages and Storm events are simulated apart
From 2016, improvement of the dimensioning
methodology to take offshore storm behavior into
account.
Step 1 : System Needs – methodology (1/3)
15 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Improvement of the dimensioning methodology to take offshore storm behavior into account
• Storm event = sudden decrease of offshore power production in case of storm
• Previously, the storm events were added to the time series of the reference year imbalances as other forecasting errors
of renewable production
• Due to the characteristics of these events and the high impact on the system, they will now be simulated apart
• Correlation between wind parks is very high due to their geographical concentration
• These events occurs a few times per year
• The loss of power could be very high as the total offshore production could decreases suddenly
The loss of power due to a storm event will be simulated similarly to outages of production units
Note that this methodology will probably evolve in the future
• More data on offshore wind parks will be available, knowledge of offshore and ARP behavior will increase, characteristic
of the each offshore wind park can be taken into account, etc.
The improvement of the methodology will Impact the calculation of non socialised part of R3 volume (Rn-1).
Step 1 : System Needs – methodology (2/3)
16 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Calculation of non socialised part of FRR volume
to be delivered by the single Injection ARP with
nuclear units (Rn-1)
• The Rn-1 volume is the difference between the
volume needs of the ‘System Global’ and the
volume needs of the ‘System Standard’
• This principle will apply as long as one single ARP
is responsible of the larges imbalances
• For the calculation of the ‘System Standard’, the
nuclear units are capped to the installed amount
of offshore wind parks 833MW (≠ standard unit of
500MW)
Step 1 : System Needs – methodology (3/3)
17 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Remark
• A reduction of the needs of the ‘System Global’ is observed
between 2016 and 2015 due to the reduction of the system
imbalances.

Calculation of System imbalances variability
• Based on Qh-variations of expected system imbalances in
2016
• Based on historical observed quality and R2 deficit probability
aFRR volume for 2016:
• ACE quality in 2014 was good (ENTSO-E target respected)
• Based on historical values, a Pdef of 24% allows a good ACE
quality
aFRR (R2) volume in 2016 = 140MW
Step 2 : Determination aFRR (R2)

Pdef = 24%
Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
R3 portfolio consists of several reserve products : R3 Production, R3 Dynamic Profile, ICH and Inter-TSO
• Products have different specifications and limitations
• Elia FRR portfolio must cover the expected residual imbalances in at least 99,9% of time
Applying volume dimensioning methodology & taking into account underlying product characteristics, Elia
proposes FRR portfolio for 2016
140MW R2
770MW* R3 Production + R3 DP + ICH
* : All R3 products will be in competition respecting constraints

Available upward FRR (FRRa & FRRm)
%
100%
The different product characteristics are taken into account when defining the constraints R3 portfolio.
• R3 Production is available 100% of time and will be used (in combination with R2) to cover imbalances, especially
forced outages of units (loss of max ~440MW)
• R3 DP will be used in addition to R3 Prod and R2 to cover most of imbalances due to outages but also forecasting
errors of renewables and load.
• ICH will be mainly used to cover imbalances resulting from outages of nuclear units
• Inter-TSO will be used as last resort activation in exceptional cases only
All products will be in competition respecting the following constraints
• Min 300MW R3 Production
• Min 470MW R3 Production + R3 DP (corresponding to max 300MW ICH)
The proposed limits for R3 products allows Elia to ensure a secure operation of the network.
Step 3 : Determination mFRR portfolio (R3)

Agenda
1. Tendering yearly / monthly
2. R3 Design
Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015 23
As European trends is to move towards short term sourcing and this could increase liquidity in the balancing market, the
goal is to move to short term sourcing for balancing products in the next years.
However, after consultation of the market (cf. TF Balancing 20/11/2014), Elia proposes to move to a partial monthly
sourcing in 2016:
Volumes contracted in the yearly tendering = 700MW
• Minimum 300MW R3 Prod
• Minimum 400MW R3 Prod + DP
Volumes contracted in the monthly tendering = 70MW
• Full competition between R3 Production and R3 Dynamic Profile
Tendering yearly / monthly

39 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Following a common qualitative comparison study on the subject of a BE-NL-DE Coordinated Balancing Area (CoBA)
the German (50 Hertz, Amprion, TenneT and TransnetBW), Belgian (Elia), Dutch (TenneT) and Austrian (APG) TSOs
have decided to proceed with the analysis of the potential design of a common FRR Balancing Market.
A newly set-up expert group is currently studying into detail the technical and market aspects of such a cooperation.
More specifically, the involved TSOs will seek to reach a common view on:
• the products, technical implementation and processes (bidding, activation, selection, exchange) for the exchange of aFRR and
mFRR
• interaction with intraday markets
• the required level of harmonisation and the proposed design for the settlement of balancing energy and imbalance settlement
• the use of cross zonal capacity after intraday markets by different balancing processes
50Hertz, Amprion, APG, Elia, TenneT and TransnetBW consider this work as important in relation to the early
implementation of the Network Code on Electricity Balancing and the process of forming Coordinated Balancing
Areas (COBAs).
Study on Cross-zonal FRR Balancing Market
40 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
• The BE-NL pilot project is assessing the exchange of aFRR (R2) and mFRR (R3) between 2 different Bidding Zones &
LFC blocks.
• Is one of the 8 pilot projects on XB balancing in Europe. Also one of the best appreciated projects
• Pilot project consist of 3 steps:
• Step 1 comparison of processes and functionalities (finished 2013)
• Results were presented in a common workshop to stakeholders and published on the websites of both TSOs
• Step 2 Market design scenarios (finished 2014)
• Results were presented in a common workshop (13/06/2014) to stakeholders and published on the websites of both TSOs
• Step 3 cost benefit analysis and Go/No Go decision for implementation
Scope of new AUT-BE-DE-NL initiative is similar to the scope of step 2 of the BE-NL pilot project. Hence step 3 (CBA of
market design assumptions) of the BE-NL project is put temporary on hold in order to assess first the extendibility of the
market design assumptions taken between BE & NL in step 2.”
Pilot project BE-NL
41 Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
• Future modifications of Belgian Balancing market shall be more and more driven by EU
developments
• Key drivers are Network Code on Electricity Balancing and early implementation projects
• The pilot project BE-NL and the common initiative with DE & AUT are important projects to shape
the implementation of the Network Code on Electricity Balancing
• Elia will keep stakeholders informed regarding EU Topics

Publication of solar forecast at DSO level
In the scope of UMIG 6.0 (2017), DSOs are working on the development of SPP (Synthetic Production
Profile)
These profiles will be used in DSO’s settlement processes to estimate Solar production of photovoltaic
installations with no AMR metering.
Elia publishes since 2012 solar forecasts (DA+ ID) with the objective to improve the functioning of the market
To guarantee consistency between both models, Elia and DSOs are working together (coordination in
Synergrid) on the development of a single process for the acquisition and treatment of solar forecast data
On this occasion, ELIA and DSOs identified an opportunity to improve the current forecasting system offered
to the market by developing and additional level of aggregation, per DSO.
Strong correlation between solar publications and residu factor,
hence publication of forecasting per DSO will facilitate forecasting
of ARP’s position in distribution
end April 2015, ELIA will publish on its website a solar forecast per DSO

Sophie Van Caloen
Impact of the solar eclipse in Belgium
• The maximal reduction of photovoltaic infeed occurred around 10:30
• PV-output reduction between 300-400 MW
• Solar infeed was significantly lower than predicted in Day-Ahead
APRs adequately programmed their portfolio to follow the consequences of the Solar Eclipse.
• However due to the significantly lower solar infeed compared to the previsions, the ARPs were generally short
throughout the morning.
• Sufficient balancing means were available at Elia to compensate the residual system imbalance.
No impact on Total Load of a magnitude that is significantly different from normal variations was identified due to
the solar eclipse.
Solar Eclipse – 20/03/2015
Task Force Balancing 26/3/2015
Impact of the solar eclipse in Continental Europe
• The fast variations in solar generation were successfully managed by TSOs thanks to meticulous preparation, and
strong regional and European cooperation.
• Germany and Italy were facing the biggest challenges.
• German TSOs managed very smoothly the high and fast variations relying on power reserves.
• Italy decided in cooperation with DSOs and generators to take an equivalent of 5 GW PV out of the system,
• Frequencies always remained within the normal operational bounds
