On 18 December 2015, the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) adopted a new Recommendation regarding good practices for the treatment of the investment requests including cross border cost allocation (CBCA) requests for electricity and gas projects of common interest (PCI). This Recommendation aims to facilitate future CBCA processes and to provide guidelines to and share good practices with project promoters and NRAs. It replaces the Agency’s Recommendation No 07/2013 on CBCA.
The new Recommendation is built upon the experience gained with the first investment requests for PCIs and addresses a number of challenges and open issues raised by NRAs and stakeholders, as briefly described in the Agency’s Summary report “Experience with Cross-Border Cost Allocation” of September 2015. The new Recommendation provides: a) project promoters with guidelines to better fulfil the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 when submitting an investment request; b) NRAs with the main principles to be followed when treating an investment request and deciding on the cost allocation across borders.
