Agenda





NC Operational Planning & Scheduling: Amending the NC OPS

Motivations for a second Edition of OPS

ACER issued its Opinion on OPS first edition, on June 19th

Despite that “the NC is broadly in line with the Framework Guidelines”

ACER stated that improvements were required before the Agency could

recommend its adoption to the Commission

ENTSO-E has informed ACER that it will resubmit a second Edition for ACER Opinion

Objectives

Improve (i) clarity, (ii) readability of the NC

Improve (iii) consistency with other NCs

Without changing fundamental choices (principles and processes) described

in edition 1 of the NC


NC Operational Planning & Scheduling: Summary of ACER opinion

• National scrutiny

legal wording for explicit role of national authorities

• Transparency

request for additional indicators on accuracy of forecasted variables

• Coherence and compatibility with other NCs

request for improving coherence with OS

• Performance indicators and forecasting obligations

concerns about the TSOs roles and responsibilities on forecast use and

checking of adequate accuracy

• Scope and application

concerns about Self-Planned Interconnector concept and

responsibilities when multiple TSOs exist + isolated systems

• Drafting quality

General Provisions






Outage Coordination

Includes:

- Setting up Outage Coordination Regions & procedures

- Assessing relevance of assets

- Year-ahead outage planning

- Updates up to real-time

- Handling Forced Outages

18


Outage Coordination

The Network Code only applies for Relevant Assets:

- Direct impact of the Availability Status on cross-border power flows

- (Small) subset of Significant Grid Users

- Methodology & thresholds to be approved by NRAs

- For Elia:

– Small subset of all Power Generating Modules with CIPU contract;

– probably no Demand Facilities;

– no DSO or CDSO grid elements;

– no non-TSO owned interconnectors.

19


Outage Coordination – Link with CIPU

Outage Planning Agent (NC) = Access Responsible Party (Elia)

Availability Plans:

- Only treats the Availability Status CIPU treats status, Pmin/max, prices, …

- Three statuses: Available – Unavailable – Testing

- Granularity: Hourly & per Power Generating Module (but aggregation is allowed)

- Consistent granularity if Schedules are also provided

- Consistency between provided & published information is enforced

Coordination Process:

- OPA proposal before August 1st ARP proposal before Tue W33 (August 13th);

- Updates can be initiated up to real-time CIPU procedures RV, SB, RTR, NOM;

- All CIPU financial compensation rules are compatible with the Network Code;

- Detailed test plan to be submitted 1 month in advance;

- Forced Outages: TSO can inform ARP of potential Operational Security issues,

ARP has to inform TSO if it cannot adhere to the provided timeframe.
