Revision of FCA: launch of consultation

Published:

Dear JAO Members,

The recent revision of the EU’s electricity market rules requires the European Commission to conduct an Impact Assessment of measures to improve the ability of market participants to hedge price risks in the internal forward market for electricity. This impact assessment should result in amending Commission Regulation (EU) 2016/1719 establishing a guideline on forward capacity allocation (FCA Guideline).

In this context, the EC is launching a targeted consultation, aiming to seek stakeholders’ views on how to improve the current functioning of the electricity forward markets.

The objective is to gather factual information, knowledge and perception about current issues in the forward markets and potential ways to improve the current functioning of the electricity forward markets.

Practical details:

  • The consultation will remain open until the 30 September, on ENER webpage
  • The questionnaire is only available in English, however you can submit your responses in any official EU language.
  • Feel free to provide feedback only to the questions that are relevant for you; questions can be left blank.

For any questions or comments, please contact them using the following email address: ENER-C3-FCA@ec.europa.eu

Kind Regards,

JAO Operations Team
