Agenda About EMCC and the current market coupling business Development of interregional volume coupling Nordic - CWE Conclusions and discussion
Nordic-German tight volume coupling • General principles: • In a volume market coupling, the optimal net positions and thus the energy transfers between the considered market areas are determined by a system-wide maximisation of social economic welfare, i.e. the participants’ economic gains • The calculated optimal energy transfers are transformed into price-independent bids and offers respectively • The actual clearing of the market areas, i.e. determination of market clearing prices and decision on acceptance or rejection of orders, remains with the involved power exchanges • EMCC is assigned to conduct interregional volume market coupling between the Nordic region and Central West Europe
EMCC organisation Shareholders Tasks and setup Managing Director • The present allocation of shares is in principle based on the size of the end-user consumption in the relevant market: • Scandinavia: 40 % • Germany: 60 % front office back office Market Coupling Office IT Communications Scheduling Settlement Market Development Accounting Legal EMCC was established in Hamburg in August 2008

Long-term plan for the Integrated European Market (IEM) Glidepath analogy of DA roadmap Integrated European Market
A first step: Tight Volume Coupling for the CWE-Nordic region (TVC) • Interim Tight Volume Coupling (TVC), based on EMCC‘s Nordic-German coupling, will provide tight volume coupling between the future CWE market coupling and NPS market splitting • TVC will consider two regions with • many market areas • many interconnectors • different market coupling schemes • The CWE-Nordic TSOs and PXs asked EMCC to develop the interim solution to couple the two regions • The project was launched in January • Costs are shared by all TSOs in both regions
The current solutions will be replaced by an interim solution • Current day-ahead market • Interim day-ahead market Current solutions Market splitting Nordic and Estonia (one PX) Price coupling in the Netherlands, Belgium and France (TLC – 3 PXs) Tight volume coupling between Denmark, Sweden and Germany through EMCC Explicit auctions on other borders Intermediate solution Market splitting in the Nordic (NPS) Price coupling in CWE Tight volume coupling on all connections between the CWE and Nordic regions TLC CWE
The interim solution concept was developed by all parties 1 2 3 Definition & Initiation Solution Development Operation Setting of functional requirements for the interim solution (TSOs and PXs) • EMCC develops solution • TSOs prepare for providing ATCs • PXs prepare for providing order books • Establishment of governance arrangements (TSOs and PXs) • EMCC operates tight volume market coupling • PXs operate second step calculations • Continuous work on making solution as tight as possible EMCC was asked to establish tight volume coupling The interim solution establishes tight volume coupling on all interconnectors between the CWE and Nordic regions
Established project organisation – interim tight volume coupling Joint PX-TSO Steering Committee Working group Working group Governance E-Bridge Consulting Technical & Business Process • Convenor: • Enno Böttcher • Deliverables: • Technical solution, business processes and timing • Coordinate fallback solutions • Coordinate IT-enhancements to existing architecture • Coordinate implementation, testing and migration of solution • Convenor: • Christian Dobelke • Deliverables: • Interim Solution Committee (ISC) • Interim Solution Agreement (ISA) • Share option agreement • External project management • Tasks: • Assist steering committee and working groups • Evaluate and integrate results of working groups • Provide basics for decision-making to the steering committee
Working group governance - interim governance solution • How to grant sufficient influence for a large group of heterogeneous stakeholders ? partly directly affected (capacity holders, e.g. Energinet), partly rather remotely affected (e.g. Fingrid) partly long-time customers (e.g. transpower), partly new customers of EMCC (e.g. Statnett) partly EMCC shareholders, mostly not Interim solution committee (ISC) Interim solution agreement (ISA) Effective control on actions of EMCC in the framework of interim coupling of CWE/Nordic Overseeing the efficiency of service provided Acceptance of design, development, operation Exchange of information between involved parties and decide on joint communication to the market and to the regulators Contractual basis for ISC Between all CWE/Nordic TSOs and PXs Defining rights and obligations Defining composition, decision making procedures and cost sharing in the ISC Defining termination clauses (“EMCC interim coupling is not a vehicle towards price coupling with EMCC responsible for setting prices”) Completed by sunset clause and share option in case of delayed enduring solution
Contractual framework of the two workgroups () • Interim solution agreement • Common agreement between all CWE/ Nordic TSOs and PXs and EMCC (overall contractual basis for ITVC solution between CWE and Nordic) • Share option agreement • Common agreement between EMCC shareholders and new shareholders • CWE/Nordic interim solution confidentiality agreement • Common agreement between all CWE/ Nordic TSOs and PXs and EMCC (rgds. the use of confidential information) • Confidentiality agreement - use of market data • Common agreement between all CWE/ Nordic PXs and EMCC (regarding the use of confidential market data) • Cost share agreement • Common agreement between all CWE/ Nordic TSOs and EMCC (principles of sharing costs among the TSOs) • Cost recovery agreement • Common agreement between EMCC and CWE/Nordic PXs • PXs service agreement • Common agreement between all CWE/ Nordic PXs and EMCC (regarding the services the PXs provide to EMCC) () () () () () () in finalization finalized
Working group technical and business processes - issues & solutions • Technical and business process deliverables • Objectives • Develop and implement an Interim Tight Volume Coupling Solution between CWE and Nordic region for the interconnectors Baltic Cable, DK1, DK2 and NorNed in close cooperation with CWE-Nordic TSOs and PXs • Management of cross-border flows, shipping and scheduling for the aforementioned interconnectors by EMCC • Avoid market irritations which may occur from a “loose” sequential market coupling • Tasks • Development of technical solution and business process in line with the requirements/constraints of CWE-Nordic TSOs and PXs • Development of a fallback solution and investigation of robust processes • Improvement and harmonisation of extended day ahead processes to cover exceptional situations • Coordinated migration of Interim Tight Volume Coupling Solution and CWE market launch
Coordinated elaboration of regional market processes Start • A coordinated process was initiated between all involved PXs, TSOs, EMCC and IT suppliers • On 9th February 2010, the 1st meeting of T&BP working group took place • The business process for CWE-Nordic coupling including fixed timings is currently in final discussion and will be approved soon • 2nd auction and special routines are included in the process • It will be flexible in case of technical problems, i.e. the working group will also define fallback solutions • Market participants will be informed in time Step 1 Step 2 Decision yes no Alternative 1 Alternative 2 End End All involved parties are involved in the development of sound processes that comply with national and regional rules and constraints.

Next steps • Initial technical deliverables will be provided from June 2010, followed by an intensive testing period. • Before the launch of the TVC solution a market validation test will be performed. The CWE-Nordic regulators invited the CWE-Nordic PXs, TSOs and EMCC to a meeting in Bonn on 7th May 2010 in order to discuss the status of the TVC solution • The CWE-Nordic regulatory authorities are monitoring the interim TVC and CWE MC developments – the ISC reports directly to the regulators. • All parties agree to start CWE with a tight volume coupling (TVC) with the Nordic market. • All parties put their strongest efforts to ensure a start as close as possible to 7th September 2010. If it turns out in July 2010 that a timely start cannot be realised, all parties will decide on mitigating actions.
