Relevant information:

(*) As a result of a yearly capacity calculation process applied by the onshore TSOs for 2023 on the GB-BE border, Nemo Link has received the yearly NTC for the BE -> GB direction of 350MW. Since all 350 MW have been allocated in the previous CAL 23 auctions, no further capacity is available for the BE -> GB direction in the yearly timeframe, hence the CAL 23 (III)  BE to GB auction taking place on 7 & 8 November 2022 is cancelled.

(**) The CAL 23 (IV) auctions have been cancelled due to the yearly NTC as above and the late timings of the auction causing an increase in the collateral requirements (2/N rule instead of 1/N rule).

Please note that more Long Term capacity in the BE -> GB direction above the given 350 MW is expected to become available for most months in 2023 as a result of quarterly and monthly capacity calculations.
