16 Process delayed assumptions Pre-coupling Deadline to solve incidents with Network Data (CZCs) publication is 11:45 CET Coupling Time allowance for technical problem solving up to 55 min Time allowance for special market procedures such as handling of curtailment situations or price threshold reached via a second auction used by CWE PXs or the NPS-applied regulated routines that include peak load capacity (production/load) reserves activation. Deadline for final Market Results is 13:50 CET Max. Time /Flexibility to solve technical problems 55min 2 nd Auction CWE/ GB 48 min Post-coupling Final notification deadline of 15:30 in CWE, CWE-GB and CWE-Nordic interconnectors 16

17 Second Auction 2 nd Auction CWE/ GB 48 min A Second Auction is triggered in case at least one of the CWE/GB prices reach or exceed the predefined price thresholds The routine consists in Reopening the PXs order books for 10 minutes to give the Market Participants the opportunity to modify their bids in order to improve the market situation Execution of a second calculation with the new Order Data The thresholds to trigger a 2nd auction in CWE remain the same: EUR/MWh and -150 EUR/MWh In GB thresholds will be introduced: GBP/MWh and -150 GBP/MWh In case the prices still reach the thresholds after the Second Auction calculation, no additional Second Auction will be triggered 17

18 PCR PROCESS TIMINGS for NWE * This is the maximum time which could be used to solve a technical problem in order to avoid a decoupling. If the technical problem is resolved in less than 55 min than the next processes will start earlier. ** the Second Auction in CWE / GB is a single process taking 48 minutes. *** the Special Procedure for the Nordics is an iterative process which will run the number of times necessary taking into the full decoupling deadline when NWE is coupled. 18

21 Full Decoupling of NWE (1) Internally in CWE and for the CWE Nordic interconnectors (except Baltic Cable): Shadow auctions organized by CASC will be held and results published The 3 PXs within CWE will reopen the order books (20 min) and perform local DA spot market calculations without using cross border capacities The notification deadline of is applicable for the notification by market parties of utilization of Explicit Capacity bought in Shadow Auctions Fallback for Baltic cable : capacity goes back to the cable owner In GB Shadow auctions organized by RTE/NGIC are applicable for FR/GB border only (IFA interconnector), this consists of daily explicit auctions Capacity of virtual interconnector set to zero The 2 PXs will reopen the order books (APX UK 15 min) and perform local DA spot market calculations without using cross border capacities Fallback for BritNed : capacity goes to intraday For the Nordic Baltic area including the link with Poland Shadow auctions on 3 CWE-Nordic links Re-opening of NPS order books Price coupling will be performed by NPS utilizing the cross border capacities within this region 21

22 Shadow Auctions Bids submitted through the Shadow Auctions interface at CASC.EU are default bids : They are valid for every day of the year, for a specific border, direction and an hourly period (Volume in MW and a Price in /MWh) Participants can update their default bids at any time before the freezing of the database when Shadow Auctions are run Description in Harmonised Auction Rules for CWE, CSE and CH Possibility to register only for Shadow Auctions, with a lighter status: Participant to Shadow Auctions Only" Market Participants need to submit a nomination towards the respective TSOs by the notification deadline of

23 Full Decoupling scenario CWE : 4 local PX auctions Nordic-Baltic Market Splitting Virtual Capacity is set to Zero 2 local PX auctions Shadow Auctions Local matching process In case of full decoupling the processes are local Communication in case of fallback is organized locally (different info, different timings) 23

24 CWE TSO investigate flexibility of notification deadline The CWE TSOs and 50 Hertz have agreed upon a joint target solution for the deadlines for submitting the different schedules towards the TSOs available as of Go-Live of the Price Coupling in the NWE region Taken into account that it is important for the TSOs to receive data of good quality, the TSOs agreed to extend the deadline for submitting generation schedules in the very rare cases of specific fallback situations to a later time than 15:30 In these extraordinary situations, all CWE TSOs and 50 Hertz will extend the deadline for submitting generation schedules until at least 15:45. Some TSOs can extend this deadline even beyond 15:45 depending on local market rules This means that market participants have at least 60 minutes for the submission of generation schedules 24

Time /Flexibility to solve technical problems 55min* 2 nd Auction CWE/ GB 28 min** Notification Process 60 min Notification Process 60 min Final Notification deadline =15:30 which applies to: Internal CWE, CWE-GB and CWE-Nordic interconnectors * This is the maximum time which could be used to solve a technical problem in order to avoid a decoupling. If the technical problem is resolved in less than 55 min than the next processes will start earlier. ** the Second Auction in CWE / GB is a single process taking 48 minutes. *** the Special Procedure for the Nordics is an iterative process which will run the number of times necessary taking into the full decoupling deadline when NWE is coupled. 27

28 Partial (De)coupling within NWE Any scenario where one or more bidding areas and/or interconnectors are temporary not participating in NWE Market Coupling while the remaining bidding areas/interconnectors still participate in NWE Market Coupling The CZCs for the decoupled borders / interconnectors will be allocated via the fall back solution for these temporary not participating borders / interconnectors NWE parties will try to couple as many borders / interconnectors as possible Partial coupling is triggered during the pre-coupling process, at the latest at 11:45 during the coupling process, at the latest at 12:40 28

31 Partial Coupling Scenario Example : EPEX OBK missing PCR coupling Shadow Auctions PCR matching process Local matching process 31

32 Partial Coupling Scenario Example: APX NL/Belpex OBK missing PCR coupling Shadow Auctions Local matching process 32

33 Partial Coupling Scenario Example : no CWE CZCs in PMB PCR coupling Shadow Auctions PCR matching process Local matching process 33

34 Decoupling scenarios Where s the problem What decouples? Resulting configuration APX/Belpex EPEX NPS (Nordic) CWE internal borders (FR-DE, FR-BE, BE-NL, NL-DE) and NorNed and BritNed and GB-GB CWE internal borders and IFA, DK-DE, DE-SE Nordic area, NorNed, DE-DK, DE-SE 34 NL, BE and APX UK markets isolated DE, FR, and BE markets isolated Nordic markets isolated (but internally coupled) N2EX GB-GB, IFA N2EX market isolated CWE TSOs CWE internal borders BE market isolated BritNed BritNed No market isolated NorNed NorNed No market isolated Any other individual interconnector PMB, or problem after 12:20 That interconnector Entire region No market isolated All markets isolated (but Nordic markets internally coupled) 34

35 Partial Coupling before OBK GCT (12:00) * This is the maximum time which could be used to solve a technical problem in order to avoid a decoupling. If the technical problem is resolved in less than 55 min than the next processes will start earlier. ** the Second Auction in CWE / GB is a single process taking 48 minutes. *** the Special Procedure for the Nordics is an iterative process which will run the number of times necessary taking into the full decoupling deadline when NWE is coupled. 35

Partial Coupling before OBK GCT (12:00) Partial coupling followed by Full Decoupling + Special Routine Nordics * In case X6b, the NPS special procedure, being an iterative process, may take the same

36 Partial Coupling before OBK GCT (12:00) Partial coupling followed by Full Decoupling + Special Routine Nordics * In case X6b, the NPS special procedure, being an iterative process, may take the same timeframe as when all markets are still coupled, but this is not relevant in a full decoupling since Nordic and Baltic TSOs do not impose a nomination deadline, but instead NPS can take as long time as needed to finish the Price Calculation and subsequent notifications can be submitted (updated) by NPS and market parties to relevant TSOs until about 1 hour before delivery hour.

81 New Block Order Types LINKED & EXCLUSIVE BLOCK ORDERS

82 Linked Block Orders Definition: The execution of (a set of) profile block(s) is subject to the execution of another block Other standard execution rule apply in full Use: Allows to explicitly consider technical and economical constraints For example, a first block may include the start-up costs of a production facility, and additional blocks comprising fuel costs may be linked to this block Possibility to design complex linked structures (i.e. families) Q Hour Block Order Block Order 2 Block Order 3 Q Hour Block Order Block Order 2 Block Order 3

Unit is fully accepted if P>60; or 200 MW accepted if P>62; or 50 MW accepted if P>65

85 Linked Block Orders use cases Optimise thermal power plants Offer plant using multiple orders, allowing it to run at different outputs, each reflected by their own cost level Run one/several hour(s) earlier or later if power prices remain interesting outside of the peak period Optimise consumption processes Only execute part B of consumption process if part A of process was started earlier Or only start A+B when combination does not exceed certain costs Optimise storage capacity Sell only during peak period if off-peak purchase order has been accepted and buy/sell combination is in the money

86 Exclusive Block Orders Definition: Within a set of profile blocks, at most one block can be accepted Other standard execution rule apply in full Use: Allows to propose for trading different production patterns For example, a specific production plant can be offered at a low price for baseload production, at a medim price for peak load production >at a high price for super peak load production but can only be executed once Low price order Medium price order High price order

87 Exclusive Block Orders Optimise thermal power plants Similar to using Linked Block Orders Optimise combined heat & power installations Heat demand with flexible timing, or some heat buffer Flexibility might allow to produce heat & power when power prices are highest, using several exclusive production profiles Optimise demand side management Case: End user can stop consumption, but only if DAM prices > 500 /MWh and for max 2 hours/day Program load shedding on the DAM on the most expensive hours (and only of threshold is reached), using a combination of exclusive blocks of 2 hours Block 1: hours 1 & 2, Block 2: hours 2 & 3,

88 Benefits of Smart Orders Smarter orders give more flexibility when introducing orders for the auction Better reflecting technical constraints of generation units E.g. no partial clearing at non-cost reflective price levels, lower PRB frequency (plant offered in smaller blocks), Easier bidding, less operational work Result: better asset optimization (generation + consumption) Better price formation More robust against uncertainties faced when making day-ahead price forecasts

117 PCR PROCESS TIMINGS for NWE * This is the maximum time which could be used to solve a technical problem in order to avoid a decoupling. If the technical problem is resolved in less than 55 min than the next processes will start earlier. ** the Second Auction in CWE / GB is a single process taking 48 minutes. *** the Special Procedure for the Nordics is an iterative process which will run the number of times necessary taking into the full decoupling deadline when NWE is coupled. 117

Partial Coupling before OBK GCT (12:00) * In case X6b, the NPS special procedure, being an iterative process, may take the same timeframe as when all markets are still coupled, but this is not

121 Partial Coupling before OBK GCT (12:00) * In case X6b, the NPS special procedure, being an iterative process, may take the same timeframe as when all markets are still coupled, but this is not relevant in a full decoupling since Nordic and Baltic TSOs do not impose a nomination deadline, but instead NPS can take as long time as needed to finish the Price Calculation 121 and subsequent notifications can be submitted (updated) by NPS and market parties to relevant TSOs until about 1 hour before delivery hour.

122 Partial coupling after OBK GCT (12:00) Case X7 Case X8 Case X9a Case X9b * In case X9b, the NPS special procedure, being an iterative process, may take the same timeframe as when all markets are still coupled, but this is not relevant in a full decoupling since Nordic and Baltic TSOs do not impose a nomination deadline, but instead NPS can take as long time as needed to finish the Price Calculation and subsequent 122 notifications can be submitted (updated) by NPS and market parties to relevant TSOs until about 1 hour before delivery hour.

123 Communication to the market - summarized Time/ Deadline Communication 12:20 Increased risk for partial coupling in certain region TSO message to MPs: Inform Market of fall back processes (update of explicit shadow auction bids) ~ 12:35 Second Auction PCR message to PXs and subsequently MPs and TSOs: Second Auction is declared Regular publication time (12:42) PCR message that process is delayed from PXs* to TSOs and MPs (timings to be confirmed). (TSO message to MPs: Inform Market of fall back processes) Message number [EXC_03a] [EXC_01] Local PX msg NB 1. The fallback solutions and processes as well as their associated contents and timings are organized on local / regional level and not on NWE level. Timings are therefore indicative and additional messages can be sent (e.g. IFA CMS will also sent messages in case of a fall back situation) NB 2. The shift of notification deadlines only applies for CWE internally and CWE borders. 123

124 Communication to the market - summarized Time/ Deadline Communication 13:20 PCR message to PXs and subsequently MPs and TSOs: Inform Market about Incident and risk of decoupling. TSO message to MPs: Inform Market of fall back processes (update of explicit shadow auction bids) & shifting of notification deadline to 15h00 13:40 End of update shadow auction bids Start of explicit shadow auction calculation 13:50 Decision of Full decoupling PCR message to PXs and subsequently MPs and TSOs: Full decoupling is declared (TSO message to MPs: notification deadline has been extended to 15h30) 13:50-14:00 Publication of the explicit shadow auction fall back results (target is to publish immediately after and at the latest at 14:00, feasibility of these timings must still be confirmed) 13:55-14:15 Update of local auction bids according to shadow auction results [EXC_03b] - [EXC_04b] - Local PX msg
