SIDC: Switch from 24 to 96 allocation gates in Intraday Continuous Trading on bidding zone borders between Belgium, Germany and The Netherlands In October 2022, the Transmission System Operators Amprion, Elia and TenneT B.V. will adapt the configuration of Belgian-German and Belgian-Dutch borders in intraday continuous trading from 24 allocation gates to 96 allocation gates per day. This will allow cross-border trades in the intraday continuous trading platform to take place closer to real-time, and provides market parties with more time to update their position based on the latest generation and consumption forecasts, which is particularly important given the intermittent nature of renewables.

SUCCESSFUL ALEGRO GO-LIVE We have the pleasure to announce that the first day of commercial operation for the 1GW HVDC interconnector between Germany and Belgium was successful! The capacity on the ALEGrO interconnector is being released in a stepwise manner to ensure a smooth integration in the meshed AC grid. For the first allocation date, 100 MW capacity was released in the Day Ahead timeframe for allocation via SDAC. The completely new “Evolved Flow Based” especially to integrate and optimize controllable DC-links into day-ahead Markets was successfully applied for the first day/time in practice after years of design, implementation and thorough testing. The link with the new methodology is a key contribution to further integrate European Electricity Markets and will lead to additional welfare gains in the CWE resp. Core-Region. Please be reminded that since the completely new bidding zone border DE-BE and applied technologies for the HVDC interconnector , the capacities are going to be released in a stepwise manner to guarantee a smooth market integration. Once the provision of full Day-Ahead capacities has been reached, ID ATC capacities will be released as of 8th December. The allocation of monthly long term rights (FTR options) is foreseen to start in December for delivery January 2021. The first yearly products (FTR options) are foreseen for 2022. |
