ACER’s New Decision Ensures The Intraday Capacity Calculation Methodology Of The Core Region Is Aligned With The Expected Flow-Based Market Coupling

The EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) has reached a decision on the first amendment for the intraday capacity calculation methodology of the Core capacity calculation region (Core LT CCM) in cooperation with the region’s National Regulatory Authorities (NRAs) and Transmission System Operators (TSOs).

The Core region comprises 13 Member States: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Croatia, France, Germany, Hungary, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.

The new ACER decision (which amends an earlier 2019 decision) ensures that the application of the intraday capacity calculation methodology is aligned with the expected Core region day-ahead flow-based market coupling. The latter was expected to go live on 20^th April but has once again been postponed.
