Replanning of Core Flow-Based Intraday Capacity Calculation (b) go-live

Date: 08-05-2024

Core project parties regret to inform that the Core IDCC(b) go-live on 15 May 2024 is postponed. The new target go-live date is 28 May 2024, to be confirmed beginning of next week.

The capacity calculation processes are prepared, and Core parties are technically ready in the preparation of their local and central systems. However, recently solved stability issues and a delayed deployment of the interface with XBID call for an extended stable test period.

 

Communication channels
Market participants who would like to follow closer the project development are invited to join the Core Consultative Group (CCG) by sending an email to CoreCG@magnus.nl. The participants of the Core Consultative Group will receive regular information, and invitations to teleconferences and meetings.

Next to the Core CG, a Question & Answer Forum for the Core FB capacity calculation project is currently in use. The Forum can be accessed via https://coreforum.my-ems.net/.

The Core TSOs invite all market participants to use this Forum for their queries.

 

About the Intraday Capacity Calculation project in the Core CCR
The Core Flow-Based Intraday Capacity Calculation (Core FB IDCC) project promotes the development and implementation of a flow-based intraday capacity calculation across the whole Core Capacity Calculation Region (Core CCR) in the framework of the SIDC. The Core CCR consists of the bidding zone borders between the following EU Member States’ bidding zones: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Luxemburg, The Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.

 

Market integration - Core to energy transition
The energy transition towards a carbon free electricity supply is a European challenge that requires the use of the European electricity system to the full extent. Weather-dependent supply and increasing demand response will lead to a different and more intense use of the grid. The Core market integration project is aiming to create operational preconditions to optimise the use of the system from a regional perspective and make the single European market a reality.
