Europex: Moving Towards Full Market Integration Of Renewables – The Most Cost-Efficient Way To Decarbonise The Energy Sector

Date 20/11/2020

Significant deployment of renewable energy sources (RES) is required to achieve the EU 2050 net zero target proposed in the Green Deal as well as the raised ambition of the EU 2030 targets. The recently published EU Offshore Renewable Energy Strategy sets out the scale of the challenge, estimating that an installed capacity of at least 300 GW of offshore wind alone will be needed by 2050. Energy markets will be vital to help achieve this scale-up at an acceptable cost. Despite the high fixed cost structure of renewables as well as the need for predictable revenue streams, market-based remuneration of renewables in the energy market offers the most cost-efficient way of achieving decarbonisation. Recent market reforms, including the harnessing of demand-side flexibility, and ensuring RES can achieve revenue streams from multiple markets, need to be fully implemented to allow markets to realise their full potential in a high renewables system.

Changes to the publication of liquidity management data

On 5 November 2020 the Governing Council adopted several amendments related to the publication of liquidity management data, with the aim of streamlining processes and increasing efficiency. In particular, the Governing Council decided to suspend the publication of the benchmark allotment amount of main refinancing operations (MROs), since it is not needed for the successful implementation of Eurosystem monetary policy under the current operational framework and liquidity conditions. The Governing Council also decided to reduce the publishing frequency of the autonomous factor forecast from twice a week to once a week on MRO announcement days. Furthermore, the Governing Council decided to change the publication time of daily liquidity data from 09:10 CET to 11:30 CET. These changes will take effect on 14 December 2020, i.e. on the announcement day of the first MRO of the reserve maintenance period starting on 16 December 2020.
