All Transmission System Operators of synchronous area Continental Europe are taking into account the

following;

Whereas 7

(1) This document is a common proposal developed by all Transmission System Operators of 8

synchronous area CE (hereafter referred to as “TSOs”) regarding the development of a proposal for 9

the dimensioning rules for FCR (hereafter referred to as “FCR dimensioning rules proposal”) in 10

accordance with Article 153 of the Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 of 2 August 2017 11

establishing a guideline on electricity transmission system operation (hereafter referred to as “SO 12

GL”). 13

14

(2) The FCR dimensioning rules proposal takes into account the general principles and goals set in the 15

SO GL as well as Regulation (EC) No 714/2009 of the European Parliament and the Council of 16

13 July 2009 on conditions for access to the network for cross-border exchanges in electricity 17

(hereafter referred to as “Regulation (EC) No 714/2009”). The goal of the SO GL is the 18

safeguarding of operational security, frequency quality and the efficient use of the interconnected 19

system and resources. It sets for this purpose rules to determine the reserve capacity for FCR 20

required for the synchronous area CE, which shall cover at least the reference incident, and also set 21

rules to determine the shares of the reserve capacity on FCR required for each TSO of CE as initial 22

FCR obligation. 23

24

(3) The scope of the FCR dimensioning rules proposal is to establish rules to dimension the reserve for 25

FCR required, while respecting the requirements set in Article 153(2) of the SO GL. 26

27

(4) According to Article 6 of the SO GL, the expected impact of the FCR dimensioning rules proposal 28

on the objectives of the SO GL has to be described. It is presented below. The proposed FCR 29

dimensioning rules proposal generally contributes to the achievement of the objectives of the 30

Article 4(1) of the SO GL. 31

32

(5) In particular, the FCR dimensioning rules proposal responds to the objectives of SO GL to 33

determine common operational security requirements, and to ensure the conditions for maintaining 34

operational security and frequency quality level throughout the Union, by establishing rules for the 35

adequate dimensioning capacity for FCR, which is essential to stabilize the system frequency at a 36

stationary value after any imbalance between generation and consumption. 37

38

(6) In conclusion, the FCR dimensioning rules proposal contributes to the general objectives of the SO 39

GL to the benefit of all market participants and electricity end consumers. 40

Explanatory note

An appropriate amount of FCR available in the synchronous area is essential to stabilize the system 1

frequency at a stationary value after any imbalance between generation and consumption. 2

The basic criterion used for FCR dimensioning is to withstand the reference incident in the synchronous 3

area by containing the system frequency within the maximum frequency deviation and stabilizing the 4

system frequency within the maximum steady-state frequency deviation. 5

The reference incident is defined as the maximum expected instantaneous power deviation between 6

generation and demand in the synchronous area for which the dynamic behaviour of the system is designed. 7

This expected instantaneous power deviation includes the losses of the largest power generation modules or 8

loads, loss of a line sector or a bus bar, or loss of a HVDC interconnector. The SO GL (Article 153 (2b.i)) 9

sets the reference incident for CE to 3000 MW in both directions. 10

This criterion assumes a balanced situation when the incident occurs. In order to consider prior imbalances 11

derived from changes in demand, renewable generation or the market-induced imbalances, the 12

dimensioning of FCR capacity can be calculated by combining the probability of forced instantaneous 13

outages with the probability of used FCR due to the already existing frequency deviations (not associated 14

with generation trips). 15

The SO GL (Article 153 2(c)) allows the possibility for the synchronous area CE to define and apply a 16

dimensioning approach to calculate the reserve capacity on FCR that must at least cover the reference 17

incident, and based on the principle of covering the imbalances in the synchronous area that are likely to 18

happen once in 20 years. This probabilistic methodology assumes the following starting hypothesis such as 19

full activation time of automatic FRR, tripping rates of the generation plants, patterns of load, generation 20

and inertia (including synthetic inertia), which are difficult to estimate and have a strong influence on the 21

results. 22

On the other hand, in the recent past, the FCR capacity dimensioned in CE (equal to the reference incident 23

3000 MW in both directions) has proven to be enough to ensure the conditions for maintaining the 24

frequency quality level and respecting the operational security requirements. 25

For all these exposed above, the FCR dimensioning capacity in CE shall be equal to the reference incident 26

for positive and negative directions. 27

According to the Article 153(2) of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 establishing a guideline on 28

electricity transmission system operation, by 12 months after entry into force of this Regulation, all TSOs 29

of a synchronous area shall jointly develop a common proposal regarding the dimensioning rules for FCR, 30

which shall comply with the following requirement: 31

 The reserve capacity for FCR required for the synchronous area shall cover at least the reference32

incident and, for the CE and Nordic synchronous areas, the results of the probabilistic dimensioning33

approach for FCR carried out pursuant to point (c);34

 For the CE and Nordic synchronous areas, all TSOs of the synchronous area shall have the right to35

define a probabilistic dimensioning approach for FCR taking into account the pattern of load, generation36

and inertia, including synthetic inertia as well as the available means to deploy minimum inertia in real-37

time in accordance with the methodology referred to in Article 39, with the aim of reducing the38

probability of insufficient FCR to below or equal to once in 20 years.39

This proposal takes into account all the previous requirements. 40

Finally, and according to the Article 6(3) this proposal shall be subject to approval by all regulatory 41

authorities of the synchronous area CE. 42

Whereas

(1) This document regards the common additional properties of Frequency Containment Reserves

(hereinafter referred to as “FCR additional properties”) for Synchronous Area Continental Europe

(hereinafter referred to as “Synchronous Area CE”) in accordance with Article 154(2) of Commission

Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 of 2 August 2017 establishing a guideline on electricity transmission

system operation (hereinafter referred to as “SO Regulation”).

(2) With respect to Article 154 of the SO Regulation which determines FCR technical minimum

requirements, all TSOs of a synchronous area have the right to specify, in the synchronous area

operational agreement developed pursuant to Article 118 of the SO Regulation, common FCR

additional properties required to ensure operational security in the synchronous area, by means of a

set of technical parameters and within the ranges set out in Article 15(2)(d) of Commission

Regulation (EU) 2016/631 of 14 April 2016 establishing a Network Code on requirements for grid

connection of generators (hereinafter referred to as “RfG”) and in Articles 27 and 28 of Commission

Regulation (EU) 2016/1388 of 17 August 2016 establishing a Network Code on Demand Connection

(hereinafter referred to as “DCC”). These additional properties as detailed in this document are

subject to approval by the NRAs of the synchronous area according to Article 6(3)(d)(iii) of the SO

Regulation.

(3) For Synchronous Area CE, the Synchronous Area Framework Agreement for Regional Group

Continental Europe (hereinafter referred to as “SAFA”) entered into force on 14 April 2019,

following the approval by NRAs according to Article 6(3)(d) of the SO Regulation. The SAFA at

that time did not include any FCR additional properties.

(4) To reflect the individual needs of the Synchronous Area CE, some common additional properties are

nonetheless needed for FCR providing units and/or FCR providing groups with respect to the

activation of FCR and to FCR availability in a stressed system status posing particular attention to

the new technologies. To this extent particular conditions are specified for FCR providing units or

FCR providing groups which are connected to the grid via inverters. However, the principle of non-

discrimination is still respected since these conditions are based on the distinctive features of this

technology without restricting the provision of FCR.

(5) Once approved, these FCR additional properties shall be included in the SAFA, as an integral part of

this document.

(6) Where references to the RfG are cited, these references shall be intended as reflecting the possible

extreme system status where FCR provision is essential for grid security. They shall not be deemed

to contradict the application of RfG provisions only to new installations.

(7) The FCR additional properties are expected to reduce the risk of inappropriate activation of FCR and

of unavailability of FCR in a stressed system state. With this in mind, these properties will contribute

to system stability and therefore to the achievement of the objectives of Article 4 of the SO

Regulation.

(8) The specification of activation of FCR has the goal to ensure fast response and therefore help to

stabilise the system. Specifications for FCR providing units and/or FCR providing groups with

limited energy reservoir (hereinafter referred to as “LER”) aim at ensuring sufficient availability also

in stressed system status. Specifications for frequency measurement aim at ensuring availability of

4

independent functionality of FCR providing units and/or FCR providing groups in particular in case

of system split or communication problems. The transition period is defined to avoid too abrupt

change of requirements for already existing FCR providing units and/or FCR providing groups.

(9) In conclusion, the FCR additional properties contribute to the general objectives of the SO Regulation

to the benefit of all market participants and electricity end consumers.

5

Article 1 Subject matter and scope

1. The FCR additional properties as determined in this document shall be considered as the properties

developed in accordance with Article 154(2) of the SO Regulation and shall establish the requirements

in addition to those foreseen in Article 154 of the SO Regulation for FCR providing units and/or FCR

providing groups.

Article 2 Definitions and interpretation

1. For the purposes of the FCR additional properties, terms used in this document shall have the meaning

of the definitions included in Article 3 of the SO Regulation, Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2019/943,

Article 2 of Directive (EU) 2019/944, Article 2 of Commission Regulation (EU) 543/2013 and Article 2

of RfG.

2. In addition, the following definitions shall apply:

a) Active Energy Reservoir Management: active charging/discharging of the reservoir depending on the

state of charge which results from FCR activation to avoid a status of a completely full/empty

reservoir;

b) Centralised Frequency Measurement or Centralised FCR Controller: principle of using a single

frequency measurement for activation of a number of decentrally located technical entities forming

a FCR providing unit or providing group. The application of this principle requires the respective

transmission of the frequency signal to the individual FCR providing unit or FCR providing group;

c) Decentralised Frequency Measurement: principle of using independent on-site frequency

measurements at the connection points or below at site of generating units of the technical entities

forming FCR providing units or FCR providing groups and activation of FCR based on this on-site

measurement;

d) Effective Energy Reservoir: the energy reservoir of a storage device which can effectively be used

for energy feed/absorption;

e) LER FCR Providing Units or LER FCR Providing Groups: FCR providing units or groups with

limited energy reservoirs, fulfilling the criteria according to Article 3(5);

f) Normal Mode: activation of FCR depending on the deviation of system frequency;

g) Reserve Mode: activation of active power response depending on short-term frequency deviations in

relation to the mean frequency deviation;

h) Technical Entity: single power generating module or demand unit.

3. In this document, unless the context requires otherwise:

a) the singular indicates the plural and vice versa;

b) the table of contents and headings are inserted for convenience only and do not affect the

interpretation of these common FCR additional properties;

c) references to an “Article” are, unless otherwise stated, references to an Article of this document;

d) references to a “paragraph” are, unless otherwise stated, references to a paragraph included in the

same Article of this document where it is mentioned; and

e) any reference to legislation, regulations, directive, order, instrument, code or any other enactment

shall include any modification, extension or re-enactment of it then in force.

Article 3 Additional properties of Frequency Containment Reserves

1. Each TSO shall check the conformity of FCR providing units and of FCR providing groups with the rules

under this Article and with the provisions set in Article 156(9), 156(10) and 156(11) of the SO Regulation

in the course of the prequalification according to Article 155 of the SO Regulation and in addition by

(ex-post) monitoring of activation of FCR according to Article 154(3) of the SO Regulation. Each TSO

shall apply respective monitoring procedures.

2. Each TSO shall ensure that the activation of FCR providing units and FCR providing groups:

a) is not artificially delayed and begins as soon as possible but no later than 2 seconds after a frequency

deviation; and

b) rises at least linearly.

When one of the requirements a) or b) cannot be met, the FCR providing group or FCR providing unit

shall provide technical evidence to the reserve connecting TSO. The reserve connecting TSO assesses

these justifications and decides whether or not the unit or group can be qualified to provide FCR. A

refusal to be qualified shall be duly motivated by the reserve connecting TSO. The motivated decision

shall be communicated to the FCR provider and relevant regulatory authority.

3. According to Article 154(6) of theSO Regulation, each FCR providing unit or group shall be capable of

activating FCR within the frequency range of 47,5 to 51,5 Hz and for time periods defined at national

level by the competent entity according to Articles 7 and 13 of RfG, taking into account the technical

boundary conditions of the respective FCR providing units or FCR providing groups. Each TSO shall, in

coordination with the DSOs, ensure that distributed FCR is not significantly reduced by load shedding

actions.

4. Each TSO shall require that FCR providing units and FCR providing groups continue to provide FCR

and are not allowed to reduce activation in case of a frequency deviation outside the frequency range of

+/- 200 mHz up to the frequency ranges as defined in paragraph 3.

5. FCR providing units or FCR providing groups are deemed as LER FCR Providing Units or LER FCR

Providing Groups in case a full continuous activation for a period of 2 hours in either positive or negative

direction might, without consideration of the effect of an Active Energy Reservoir management, lead to

a limitation of its capability to provide the full FCR activation in accordance with Article 156(8) of the

SO Regulation, due to the depletion of its energy reservoir(s) taking into account the Effective Energy

Reservoir effectively available.

For the avoidance of doubt, FCR providing units or groups that contain technical entities with unlimited

energy reservoirs and technical entities with limited energy reservoirs shall not be considered LER FCR

providing unit or group in case their energy reservoir does not limit the capability to provide FCR

according to Article 156(7) of the SO Regulation.

FCR providing units or groups not deemed as LER FCR providing units or groups that contain technical

entities with limited energy reservoirs shall thus ensure to be able to fully activate their FCR provision

in accordance with Article 156(7) of the SO Regulation.

Technical entities with unlimited energy reservoir of FCR providing units or FCR providing groups shall

not limit their FCR provision in case technical entities with limited energy reservoir (of that FCR

7

providing group/unit) are already exhausted in either the positive or negative direction according to

Article 156(8) of the SO Regulation.

For prequalification, the TSOs shall require that:

• LER FCR Providing Units or LER FCR Providing Groups shall have an Active Energy Reservoir

management. Active Energy Reservoir management shall ensure a continuous physical activation of

FCR in normal state according to Article 156(9) of the SO Regulation.

• In accordance with Article 156(9) of the SO Regulation, the FCR provider shall ensure that LER

FCR Providing Units or LER FCR Providing Groups have an energy reservoir dimensioned to

guarantee the minimum activation period set in accordance with Article 156(10) of the SO

Regulation, by additionally taking into account possible frequency deviations that might happen

before entering into alert state.

• To enable an Active Energy Reservoir Management, LER FCR Providing Units or LER FCR

Providing Groups may prequalify a power for FCR limited to 0.8 of the rated power (i.e. a ratio of

rated power to prequalified power of at least 1.25:1); a deviation from this requirement is possible in

case an alternative solution with an equivalent effect as in guaranteeing a continuous FCR provision

while applying an Energy Reservoir Management. Any lead time for the charging process needs to

be considered for Active Energy Reservoir management.

• Active Energy Reservoir Management of LER FCR providing units and LER FCR providing groups

shall not rely on over fulfilment of activation.

• Besides ensuring that the energy reservoir is sufficient to continuously activate FCR in normal state

and fully activate FCR in alert state for the time period pursuant to Article 156(9) of the SO

Regulation, LER FCR providing units (either single or belonging to a LER FCR providing group)

that are prequalified for the first time after the entry into force of the methodology and are technically

capable (especially inverter-connected assets) shall ensure that close to the upper or lower bounds of

the energy reservoir the remaining capacity is sufficient for keeping a proper response on short-term

frequency deviations. Therefore, they shall switch from the Normal Mode (reaction to normal

frequency deviation) into a Reserve Mode (reaction to zero-mean frequency deviation). Annex I

provides the standard criteria governing the operation in Reserve Mode and the transition from

Normal Mode to Reserve Mode and viceversa with reference to LER FCR providing units. Each TSO

may decide the relevant criteria to be applied in its control area: if no criteria are defined, the standard

ones referring to LER FCR providing units apply.

6. FCR providing units (either single or belonging to a FCR providing group) shall be equipped with local

frequency measurement at least per connection point or below when it is technically feasible at the

Technical Entity of the FCR providing unit.

7. FCR providing groups shall implement alternatively one of the following approaches:

a) Decentralised Frequency Measurements at least per connection point in analogy to what is foreseen

for FCR providing units in paragraph 6;

b) a Centralised FCR Controller with Decentralised Frequency Measurements per connection point

(based on local frequency measurement) to be used as a fallback solution to ensure an autonomous

function and a proper activation in case of errors in the Centralised FCR Controller itself (e.g. outage

of SCADA, faults of communication lines) or in case of a system split affecting the perimeter of the

group; if the group includes FCR providing units, local frequency measurements available for these

units pursuant to paragraph 6 shall be part of the fallback solution; or

8

c) an alternative solution with equivalent effect to the fallback solution pursuant to b), as in guaranteeing

a proper activation in case of errors in the Centralised FCR Controller or in case of a system split.

8. In case the Decentralised Frequency Measurements are used as a fallback solution pursuant to paragraph

7(b):

a) an observation function shall detect any kind of errors of the central control or frequency

discrepancies among the technical entities within the perimeter of the group;

b) the FCR provider shall immediately initiate appropriate counter-measures to ensure that the FCR

provision is not significantly negatively impacted by switching to the Decentralised Frequency

Measurements; and

c) the minimum accuracy of the local frequency measurement used as a fallback solution can be reduced

according to the national terms and conditions applicable to the reserve connecting TSO.

9. In case the alternative solution with equivalent effect pursuant to paragraph 7(c) is implemented:

a) if the FCR providing group includes FCR providing units, the local frequency measurements

available for these units pursuant to paragraph 6 may be integrated in the alternative solution;

b) the FCR provider shall demonstrate the effectiveness of the alternative solution with respect to the

decentralised frequency measurements; and

d) the solution may be implemented only if allowed by the national terms and conditions, applicable to

the reserve connecting TSO.

10. For a time period of 4 years after the entry into force of the FCR additional properties, the implementation

of a Centralised FCR Controller non compliant with the requirement set in paragraph 7 is temporary

allowed under the following conditions:

a) To mitigate the risk of misbehavior of technical entities in case of errors of the Centralised FCR

controller (e.g. outage of SCADA, faults of communication lines) and to limit the impact on

frequency, a single non compliant Centralised FCR Controller shall not control a FCR capacity

greater than 1% of the reference incident for Synchronous Area CE according to Article 153(2)(b)(i)

of the SO Regulation .

b) The reserve connecting TSO shall monitor the share of FCR capacity managed by non compliant

Centralised FCR Controllers within the procurement process; in order to ensure operational security

pursuant to Article 154(4) of the SO Regulation, in each LFC Block the amount of FCR capacity

managed by centralised controllers shall not exceed 2.5% of the reference incident for Synchronous

Area CE according to Article 153(2)(b)(i) of the SO Regulation .

After 4 years after the entry into force of the FCR additional properties, Centralised FCR Controllers non

compliant with the requirements set in paragraph 7 are no longer allowed.

Article 4 Publication and implementation of the FCR additional properties proposal

1. The TSOs shall publish the FCR additional properties without undue delay after the approval by the

NRAs of the Synchronous Area CE.

2. The TSOs shall start to implement the FCR additional properties as specified in this proposal immediately

after the approval by all NRAs of the Synchronous Area CE.

9

3. The transitional period for the implementation of additional properties of FCR by the existing affected

FCR providers shall be two years as of the NRAs’ approval: one year for TSOs to adapt their national

Terms and Conditions and one additional year for FCR providers to implement the FCR additional

properties.

4. Each TSO may recommend to extend the provisions of the Reserve Mode to existing LER FCR providing

units which are connected to the grid by means of inverters: in this case the rules for the application of

requirements to existing units reported in Article 4(1)(b) of RfG apply and the deadline for the

implementation is set accordingly.

Article 5 Language

1. The reference language for these FCR additional properties shall be English. For the avoidance of doubt,

where TSOs need to translate these FCR additional properties into their national language(s), in the

event of inconsistencies between the English version published by TSOs in accordance with Article 8

of the SO Regulation and any version in another language, the relevant TSOs shall, in accordance with

national legislation, provide the relevant national regulatory authorities with an updated translation of

the FCR additional properties.

Annex I – Normal vs Reserve Mode

LER FCR Providing Units (either single or belonging to a LER FCR Providing Group) that are prequalified

for the first time after the entry into force of the methodology and are technically capable (e.g. inverter-

connected assets) shall be able to switch from Normal Mode to Reserve Mode when upper (socmax) or lower

(socmin) state of charge limits are exceeded. These limits are defined by the amount of energy necessary to

provide FCR for a time interval equal to full activation time of aFRR:

= ∗ ∆

= 1 − where

C is the storage capacity in MWh;

P is the power offered for FCR provision in MW;

∆tFAT is the aFRR full activation time in h.

When charge is restored, the unit shall revert to Normal Mode.

During Normal Mode the unit shall react to the normal frequency deviation ∆f(t) while in Reserve Mode the

unit shall react only on the short-term frequency deviation by following the zero-mean frequency:

∆−()̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅ = ∆() − 1

( − ∆) ∑ ∆

(−∆)

=0

During the transition period from Normal Mode to Reserve Mode and viceversa, the unit shall react on the

combination freaction(t) of normal frequency deviation and short-term frequency deviation as described by the

following equation:

() = ∆−()̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅̅ ̅ ∙ + (1 − ) ∙ ∆()

where T is the weighting function defined as follows.

For the transition from Normal Mode to Reserve Mode:

Both in normal as well as in Reserve Mode the interval for frequency sensitivity mode shall be respected (the

full frequency range is used as input signal, but the FCR provision is limited to short term frequency

deviations in Reserve Mode).

All Transmission System Operators of synchronous area Continental Europe are taking into account the

following;

Whereas 8

(1) This document is a common proposal developed by all Transmission System Operators of 9

synchronous area CE (hereafter referred to as “TSOs”) regarding the development of the limits on 10

the amount of exchange and sharing of FRR between synchronous areas involving Continental 11

Europe (hereafter referred to as “FRR exchange and sharing limits between synchronous areas”) in 12

accordance with Articles 176(1) and 177(1) of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 13

establishing a guideline on electricity transmission system operation (hereafter referred to as “SO 14

GL”). This proposal is hereafter referred to as “FRR limits on exchange and sharing between SA 15

proposal”. 16

17

(2) The FRR exchange and sharing limits between synchronous areas proposal takes into account the 18

general principles and goals set in the SO GL, as well as Regulation (EC) No 714/2009 of the 19

European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 on conditions for access to the network for 20

cross-border exchanges in electricity (hereafter referred to as “Regulation (EC) No 714/2009”). The 21

goal of the SO GL is the safeguarding of operational security, frequency quality and the efficient 22

use of the interconnected system and resources. For this purpose, it sets requirements for limits on 23

the amount of exchange as well as sharing of aFRR and mFRR between synchronous areas. 24

25

(3) The FRR limits on exchange and sharing between synchronous areas proposal takes into account 26

the load-frequency control structure of each synchronous area in accordance with Article 139 of SO 27

GL. The operation of load-frequency control processes is based on operational areas, where every 28

area has their individual responsibilities with respect to the LFC structure. The superior structure is 29

the synchronous area in which frequency is the same for the whole area. 30

31

(4) Article 176(1) and 177(1) of SO GL require all TSOs of each synchronous area to define a method 32

to determine limits for the exchange and sharing of FRR with other synchronous areas in the 33

synchronous area operational agreement. In particular: 34

 In accordance with Article 176(1), the method to determine limits for the exchange of FRR 35

shall take into account the operational impact between the synchronous areas; the stability of 36

the FRP of the synchronous area; the ability of the synchronous area to comply with the 37

frequency quality target parameters defined in accordance with Article 127 and the FRCE 38

target parameters defined in accordance with Article 128 of SO GL; and the operational 39

security. 40

 In accordance with Article 177(1), the method for determining the limits for sharing of FRR 41

shall take into account: the operational impact between the synchronous areas; the stability of 42

the FRP of the synchronous area; the maximum reduction of FRR that can be taken into 43

account in the FRR dimensioning rules in accordance with Article 157 as a result of the FRR 44

sharing; the ability of the TSOs of the synchronous area to comply with the frequency quality 45

target parameters defined in accordance with Article 127 and the ability of the LFC blocks to 46

comply with the FRCE target parameters defined in accordance with Article 128; and the 47

operational security. 48

49

(5) The scope of the FRR limits on exchange and sharing between synchronous areas proposal is to 50

establish the limits on the amount of exchange and sharing of FRR between synchronous areas in 51

All CE TSOs’ proposal for the limits on the amount of exchange and sharing of

order to respect operational security. This proposal does not apply to exchange or sharing of FRR 52

within a synchronous area. 53

54

(6) According to Article 6(2)(d)(ix) of the SO GL, it requires all TSOs to develop methodologies, 55

conditions and values included in the synchronous area operational agreements in Article 118 56

concerning the definition of limits on the amount of exchange of FRR between synchronous areas 57

in accordance with Article 176(1) SO GL and limits on the amount of sharing FRR between 58

synchronous areas in accordance with Article 177(1) SO GL. The hereafter presented exchange 59

and sharing between synchronous areas proposal shall define the requested methodologies, 60

conditions and values. 61

62

(7) The FRR limits on exchange and sharing between synchronous areas proposal is to respond to the 63

objective of SO GL pursuant to Article 4(1) to ensure the conditions for maintaining a frequency 64

quality level of all synchronous areas throughout the Union, by permitting exchange and sharing 65

between synchronous areas under certain limits in order to avoid detrimental effect on each 66

synchronous area. 67

68

(8) In conclusion, the FRR limits on exchange and sharing between synchronous areas proposal 69

contributes to the general objectives of the SO GL to the benefit of all market participants and 70

electricity end consumers. 71

positive (resp. negative) reserve capacity on FRR of a LFC block shall be limited to the 109

difference, if positive, between the size of the positive (resp. negative) dimensioning incident 110

and the reserve capacity on FRR required to cover the positive (resp. negative) LFC block 111

imbalances during 99 % of the time, based on the historical records referred to Article 112

157(2)(a). Additionaly, the reduction of the positive reserve capacity shall not exceed 30 % of 113

Explanatory note

Regarding Article 3: 1

The exchange and sharing of aFRR and mFRR between synchronous areas is a process TSOs do not foresee 2

to be implemented, at least before the implementation of the corresponding balancing platform performing 3

cross-border activation of aFRR and mFRR, according to EB GL. In this sense, TSOs at a first stage are not 4

able to perform security assessment of such exchange or sharing. TSOs’ intention is not to block any kind 5

of initiative in future, this is why the only rules considered for exchange or sharing of aFRR or mFRR, 6

where receiving synchronous area is synchronous area CE, are the same rules applied to LFC Blocks within 7

the synchronous area CE itself: i.e. at least 50% of the FRR capacity resulting from the FRR dimensioning 8

rules shall remain located in the LFC block in case of exchange. For the avoidance of doubt this limit is 9

applicable to the sum of sharing and exchange with TSOs from within and outside the synchronous area. 10

When synchronous area CE is the reserve connecting synchronous area, no limits are foreseen at this stage. 11

This proposal relies on the fact that if such an exchange or sharing of aFRR and mFRR is going to be 12

implemented in the future, specific security analysis studies will be needed in any case. Respective 13

requirements and a corresponding notification process among TSOs as well as procedures for reservation of 14

cross-border transmission capacities will have to be elaborated. Particularly, the ability of the synchronous 15

area to comply with the frequency quality target parameters defined and the FRCE target parameters 16

defined in accordance to Articles 176 and 177 of SO GL shall be considered. In this context additional 17

requirements in terms of limited amount of mFRR might be necessary, leading to amendments of this 18

proposal. In such a case, TSOs’ concerns would be as anticipated as possible with national regulatory 19

authorities. 20

Article 6(3) SO GL or a decision has been taken by the Agency in accordance with Article 6(8) SO GL. 116

Article 5 117

Language 118

The reference language for this RR limits on exchange and sharing between synchronous areas proposal 119

shall be English. For the avoidance of doubt, where TSOs need to translate this RR limits on exchange and 120

sharing between synchronous areas proposal into their national language(s), in the event of inconsistencies 121

between the English version published by TSOs in accordance with Article 8 of the SO GL Regulation and 122

any version in another language, the relevant TSOs shall, in accordance with national legislation, provide 123

the relevant national regulatory authorities with an updated translation of the RR limits on exchange and 124

sharing between synchronous areas proposal. 125

Explanatory note 1

Regarding Article 3: 2

The exchange and sharing of RR between synchronous areas is a process TSOs do not foresee to be 3

implemented at least before the implementation of the corresponding balancing platform performing cross-4

border activation of RR according to EB GL. In this sense TSOs, at a first stage are not able to perform 5

security assessment of such exchange or sharing. TSOs’ intention is not to block any kind of initiative in 6

future, this is why the only rules considered for exchange or sharing of RR where receiving synchronous 7

area is synchronous area CE are the same rules applied to LFC blocks within the synchronous area CE 8

itself: i.e. at least 50% of the RR capacity resulting from the RR dimensioning rules shall remain located in 9

the LFC block in case of exchange. 10

When synchronous area CE is the reserve connecting synchronous area, no limits are foreseen at this stage. 11

This proposal relies on the fact that if such an exchange or sharing of RR is going to be implemented in the 12

future, specific security analysis studies will be needed in any case and respective requirements and a 13

corresponding notification process among TSOs as well as procedures for reservation of cross-border 14

transmission capacities will have to be elaborated. Particularly, the ability of the synchronous area to 15

comply with the frequency quality target parameters defined and the FRCE target parameters defined in 16

accordance to articles 178 and 179 of SO GL shall be considered. In this context, additional requirements in 17

terms of limited amount of RR might be necessary leading to amendments of this proposal. In such a case, 18

TSOs’ concerns would be as anticipated as possible with national regulatory authorities. 19

2. Menetlusosaline

Elering AS, äriregistri kood 11022625, asukoht Kadaka tee 42, Tallinn, 12915, e-post:

[email protected].

3. Asjaolud ja menetluse käik

19.09.2024 esitatud Metoodikate kooskõlastustaotluses selgitab Elering, et Metoodikad on juba

varasemalt heaks kiidetud Mandri-Euroopa sünkroonala riikide reguleerivate asutuste poolt.

Seoses asjaoluga, et Eesti elektrisüsteem talitleb Venemaa ja Valgevene (IPS/UPS)

sünkroonalas, ei ole Metoodikad Eesti elektrisüsteemile rakendatavad. Samas, seoses Eesti ja

teiste Balti riikide elektrisüsteemide eelseisva sünkroniseerimisega on üheks sünkroniseerimise

eelduseks nende Metoodikate kooskõlastamine Eesti ja teiste Balti riikide reguleerivate asutuste

poolt ning Metoodikate rakendamine Balti põhivõrguettevõtjate poolt alates Mandri-Euroopa

sünkroonalaga sünkroniseerimise hetkest 09.02.2025.

02.10.2024 pöördus Konkurentsiamet Läti ja Leedu riiklike reguleerivate asutuste poole seoses

Metoodikate kooskõlastusprotsessiga.

02.10.2024 vastas Leedu riiklik reguleeriv asutus Konkurentsiametile, tuues vastuskirjas välja,

et Leedu riiklik reguleeriv asutus on Metoodikad kooskõlastanud 29.08.2024.

5 (6)

02.10.2024 vastas Läti riiklik reguleeriv asutus Konkurentsiametile, selgitades vastuskirjas, et

ka Läti reguleeriv asutus kavatseb Metoodikad kooskõlastada.

4. Konkurentsiameti seisukoht

Võttes arvesse asjaolu, et Metoodikad on juba varasemalt heaks kiidetud Mandri-Euroopa

sünkroonala riikide riiklike reguleerivate asutuste poolt ning seoses asjaoluga, et üheks

Baltikumi sünkroniseerimise eelduseks Mandri-Euroopa sünkroonalaga on Metoodikate

kooskõlastamine Eesti ja teiste Balti riikide riiklike reguleerivate asutuste poolt ja Metoodikate

rakendamine Balti põhivõrguettevõtjate poolt alates Mandri-Euroopa sünkroonalaga

sünkroniseerimise hetkest, tervitab Konkurentsiamet Metoodikate ettepanekut.

Vastavalt SOGL artikkel 6 lõikes 7 ja EBGL artikkel 5 lõikes 6 sätestatule on Balti riiklikud

reguleerivad asutused Metoodikate ettepaneku osas kokkuleppele jõudmiseks konsulteerinud,

teinud tihedat koostööd ning kooskõlastanud oma tegevust. Balti riiklikud reguleerivad

asutused on seisukohal, et Metoodikate ettepanek vastab SOGL ja EBGL sätetele ning et seda

ettepanekut on võimalik kõikidel asjaomastel reguleerivatel asutustel siseriiklikult

kooskõlastada. Asjaomased reguleerivad asutused annavad selle kohta välja siseriiklikud

otsused.

Kokkuvõte

Konkurentsiamet töötas läbi 19.09.2024 Eleringi poolt ametile kooskõlastamiseks esitatud

kõikide Mandri-Euroopa sünkroonala põhivõrguettevõtjate Metoodikate ettepanekud ning asub

seisukohale, et nimetatud Metoodikad arvestavad kehtivast seadusandlusest tulenevate

alusetega ning ei ole vastuolus SOGL-st ja EBGL-st tuleneva regulatsiooniga.

SOGL artikli 8 kohaselt tingimuste või meetodite väljatöötamise eest vastutavad

põhivõrguettevõtjad peavad need internetis avaldama pärast pädevatelt reguleerivatelt

asutustelt saadud heakskiitu või, kui heakskiitu ei ole vaja, siis pärast nende tingimuste või

meetodite väljatöötamist, välja arvatud juhul, kui selline teave on artikli 12 kohaselt

konfidentsiaalne.

EBGL artikkel 7 kohaselt tingimuste või meetodite väljatöötamise eest vastutavad

põhivõrguettevõtjad peavad need internetis avaldama pärast asjaomastelt reguleerivatelt

asutustelt saadud heakskiitu või, kui heakskiitu ei ole vaja, siis pärast nende tingimuste või

meetodite väljatöötamist, välja arvatud juhul, kui selline teave on artikli 11 kohaselt

konfidentsiaalne.

Arvestades eeltoodut ja tuginedes ELTS § 93 lõige 6 punktile 6, SOGL artikkel 6 lõige 3

punktile d) ning EBGL artikkel 5 lõige 3 punktidele j) ja l)
