2. Grid studies

2.1 Individual feasibility study

Once a qualified inquiry has been received, Amprion will offer the prospect the execution of a technical feasibility study within two weeks following receipt of the complete data pursuant to number B.1

Apart from the general network evaluation of the feed-in options to the Amprion extra high-voltage grid, this feasibility study will also determine the fitness of any existing grid connection points or, if necessary, new grid connection points and review any other effects of the feed-in request on the grid.

The prospect will be liable to pay the costs of the feasibility study, which will be prepared within two months after the relevant prerequisites have been met. Refer to the sample offer under the following link for further details:

2.2 Load flow model

Amprion additionally publishes an overview of the development of the national power flow and the installed power plant capacity within the Amprion grid area in the Internet. This is a simplified model showing the future power plant feed-in situation and load flows ("electricity transmission 2013"). This is based on findings and forecasts regarding the development of the feed-in and load situation. In addition to the individual feasibility study, the model provides prospects with indications regarding the grid situation in the feed-in region.
