AUSTRIAN - SLOVENIAN MARKET COUPLING TO LAUNCH ON 21 JULY 2016
Published:
Dear Market Participants, In the communication of 17 June, AT-SI project parties officially announced the launch of the Market Coupling on the Austrian - Slovenian border (AT-SI) and the foreseen go-live date. The initially planned go-live date of 12 July (trading day) is postponed due to an IT implementation matter. Today it can be confirmed that the AT-SI Market Coupling will be in operations as of the 21 July for delivery day 22 July. From this date onwards, day-ahead capacity for the AT-SI border will be implicitly allocated through the PCR solution, making this border a part of the Multi-Regional Coupling (MRC). During a transitional period, shadow auctions on this border will not be performed in case of decoupling. In such a case the intraday market would be used as respective fallback. Market Participants will be informed in due time about the exact implementation date of shadow auctions. Best regards, The AT-SI project parties
