[ExC_04a]: Partial Decoupling - Reopening of the order books

Dear Market Participants,

Due to technical reasons or market issues, the following area is decoupled from the Market Coupling:

DK2-DE

SE4-DE

DK1-NL (COBRA Cable)

FR-GB (ElecLink)

As a consequence of the Partial Decoupling, the PX order books for the areas remained coupled will reopen at 12:55 for exactly 10 minutes.

For the areas that remain coupled, please follow the market coupling rules as usual.

For the decoupled area, please follow the local auction rules.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please be aware that no Second Auction will be triggered if price thresholds are reached following the Partial Decoupling.

This measure aims at avoiding a Full Decoupling due to insufficient time left to perform the Second Auction.

Therefore, please use the opportunity of adjusting your orders during the 10 minutes communicated above, considering that decoupling situations are likely to determine the occurrence of extreme prices.

Disclaimer: The timings are expressed as CET timings!

Therefore, if relevant, we advise you to update your shadow bids at JAO eCAT platform before 13:40. Please refer to the website of JAO to get the results of the Shadow Auctions.
