Workshop on Contracts for Differences

For the success of the energy transition, sufficient attractiveness in capital markets and availability of financing for both transmission and distribution grid expansion are crucial. However, in a nodal pricing regime, network operator revenues potentially fluctuating with congestion conditions add complexity to the revenue streams and thus to financing. In addition, the financial effects on...

Workshop "How can individual MS or groups of MS pilot locational pricing?"

Objective With the strong emphasis on the energy only market reflected in the winter package - we want to revisit hedging and futures markets as the key element for a functioning energy-only market. In particular, we are interested to explore how they will likely evolve in a 2030 perspective with increasing shares of wind and solar power and complementing flexibility options in the system (such...

Locational pricing – how can it engage consumers

Parts of the existing electricity usage and most of the additional demand from electro-mobility, heat-pumps with thermal storage and electrification of industrial processes offer opportunities for time-shifting. In a system with rapidly increasing shares of wind- and solar power this flexible demand will be highly valuable to balance the energy system. Given that the power generation capacity is...

Webinar "Congestion Management with Locational Marginal Pricing – First-Hand Experience from North America"

The results of the Bidding Zone Review have reignited the debate around congestion management in Europe. Much of the discussions focus on the number of bidding zones necessary to limit congestion and the challenges for liquidity and competition in smaller zones. Locational marginal pricing would offer an alternative that combines effective congestion management with enhanced liquidity,...

Workshop: Local Marketplaces – Market Design Options

The bidding zone review showed large pricing zones are inadequate for effective congestion management in countries with larger shares of wind- and solar power. Large pricing zones provide the wrong incentives and could result in demand side flexibility escalating rather than supporting the management of grid congestion. However, ENTSO-e also emphasized in the report the risk for liquidity and...

Webinar: Hedging Locational Price Risk under LMP – Experiences from North America

With a potential transition to locational marginal pricing (LMP) in Europe—as an alternative to bidding zone splits—two key questions arise. First, instead of paying for redispatch in large zones, market operators will obtain congestion revenue from LMP pricing. How can these revenues be used to address distributional concerns from the introduction of LMP? Second, how can market participants hedge...

Reforms for reliably affordable and resilient power markets Understanding and addressing priorities of European countries

Studies have identified the benefits of locational marginal pricing of electricity for consumers. The full remuneration of energy balancing, congestion management, and system services through one market price unlocks demand side flexibility. This can reduce the need for additional generation capacity and grid expansion and save system costs. Furthermore, decentralized decision making based on...
