    Backup flexibility for winter 2018-19 Working Group Balancing 10/10/2018 Preliminary slides

  2. Slide 2: Introduction

    Introduction • Recent unavailability of nuclear power plants causes Security of Supply concerns in the Belgian Control Area. • Relying on Strategic Reserve is excluded, as legal framework does not allow anymore its contractualization for the coming winter period. • Elia has recently been approached

  3. Slide 3: Assumptions and constraints

    Assumptions and constraints • Existing Framework for Demand Side Flexibility : SDR As from Dec As from Dec As from Winter Jun 2018 2018 2018 2019-20 - Procedure to change ToE rules is, as foreseen by the law, complex and long not an option • Timing very limited: solution should be operational by No

  4. Slide 4: Assumptions and constraints

    Assumptions and constraints Variable per industrial site • Stakeholders’ constraints: - Long Lead Time; min/max duration ; min down time between two consecutive activations; max # of activations per winter - ToE is a pre-condition for some of them • Targeted flexibility is flexibility that has not f

  5. Slide 5: Proposed approach

    Proposed approach e approach?  Extend the existing non CIPU Free bids (“bids on Bidladder”) with a new SLA (Service Level Agreement) - This SLA is activated with a longer lead time and allows constraints - Those “slow non CIPU bids”, are assimilated to slow start CIPU units, and used according to B

  6. Slide 6: Framework

    Framework • The proposed solution may be considered as an extension of existing non CIPU Free bids Ibids  so that ToE can be applicable  so that the Imb. Price is linked to the Ibid price • Those bids from non CIPU units are used in the same way as “slow start CIPU Units” or CIPU units with constr

  8. Slide 8: Product Design

    Product Design As already applicable for non CIPU I bids on Bidladder • BSP - Conditions for participation to R3 NR 1. Open qualification procedure (prior to signature of the GFA): administrative and financial checks http://www.elia.be/en/suppliers/purchasing-categories/energy-purchases/Ancillary-se

  9. Slide 9: Product Design

    Product Design As already applicable for non CIPU I bids on Bidladder • Delivery Point - Conditions for participation 1. GU declaration (including the maximal tertiary control power for the DP) 2. Regime for all offtake common DP’s for each couple BSP – supplier as well as associated documents/proof

  10. Slide 10: Main product characteristics

    Main product characteristics - No capacity reservation - Bidding characteristics - Volume [MW] (non divisible) for the requested period - Applied on 1rst hour of activation (similar - Fixed price [€/MW] approach as for CIPU start costs) - Variable price [€/MWh] - Remunerated even if “PREPARATION” is

  11. Slide 11: Main product characteristics

    Main product characteristics - Activation: Fixed in ToE Rules - Baseline: Last qh before Activation Request (step 6 in operational process, see slide 16 ) New: baseline check: in case Baseline value (last qh before ACTIVATION) > 20% value resulting from X high of Y calculation, a penalty is applied.
