As a member of Multiregional market coupling (MRC), BSP is actively participating in the implementation of remaining European implicit allocation projects. After the successful go-live of SI-IT market coupling, BSP together with its project parties entered into realisation of SI-IT ID market coupling project and SI-AT DA market coupling project.
First, in accordance with the CACM regulation, we announce the launch of a pilot project aimed at improving the ID capacity allocation on the SI-IT electricity border. Such project, once in operation, will imply the substitution of the existing explicit intraday auctions operated by the Joint Allocation Office (JAO) on that border with an implicit market coupling auctions process.
The Go-Live window of SI-IT ID market coupling is currently foreseen in Q2 2016.
After successful implementation of above mentioned ID capacity allocation on the SI-IT border, BSP will launch implicit allocation on DA market segment on SI-AT border. The project is an extension to the NTC based day-ahead market coupling approach including its operational procedures, initially developed for the Italian borders (IBWT). This new border will be fully embedded in the Multi Regional Coupling (MRC).
The Go-live window of SI-AT DA market coupling is scheduled for mid-2016.
