European Tender analysis and improvements for flow factor competition — EU222
In the Central West Europe (CWE) region, covering Belgium, France, Germany, Luxemburg and The Netherlands, a first market coupling called the TLC (Trilateral Market Coupling) linking France, Belgium and the Netherlands was launched in November 2006. In February 2007, the national regulatory authorities (hereafter NRAs) of the CWE region published their so-called Action Plan recommending the implementation of a Flow-Based Market Coupling (FB MC) in line with the Congestion Management Guidelines issued end 2006. This agreement between regulators was supported in June 2007 by the signature of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) involving the 5 Members States, the NRAs, the Transmission System Operators (TSOs), the power exchanges (PXs) and representatives of large producers of the CWE region. One of the main objectives of this MOU was the implementation of a FB MC in the CWE region in 2009. In July 2008, project partners (TSOs and PXs) announced that the CWE MC would start with a non FB approach based on coordinated NTC calculations. These developments have led to the launch of the ITVC (Interim Tight Volume Coupling) with the Nordic region in November 2010 and to the launch of the NWE price coupling in February 2014. In the meantime, the work of TSOs and PXs on the implementation of the FB MC in the CWE region was monitored by the NRAs through the so-called ‘expert meetings’ and through the Support Group 1 (SG1) of the Pentalateral Energy Forum (PLEF) set up by the 5 countries in 2005 and later, in 2012, gradually expanded by full membership status to Austria and via observer status for Switzerland.
The NRA's are interested in an analysis and possible improvements for dealing with (fairness of) Flow Factor Competition in CWE Flow Based Market Coupling.
The goal is to select a vendor able to perform the study within the set boundaries of the NRA's and deliver the described result. The background, context, explanation of the current situation, boundaries and expected result is described in the Terms of Reference (ToR).
