On 18 January 2022 ACER is organising a webinar to present the amendments and engage with stakeholders. You can register here.

What is the recommendation about?

On 22 January 2020, ACER received a request by the European Commission to provide a Recommendation on reasoned amendments to the CACM Regulation.

The recommendation strives to improve the entire CACM Regulation as it proposes changes to a wide range of topics, including:

  • Market coupling governance and operations, to make them fit for future challenges.
  • Capacity calculation and bidding zone review
  • Amendments to the Electricity Transmission System Operation (SO) Regulation.
