2 Presentation Themes About ENTSO-E Wind Integration in Europe Challenges towards a North Sea Off-Shore Grid Conclusions 7 May

3 ENTSO-E Facts and Figures Fully operational since 1 July 2009 Integrated part of the European 3rd Energy Package Represents 42 TSOs from 34 countries 525 million citizens served 828 GW generation 305,000 km of transmission lines managed by the TSOs 3,400 TWh/year demand 400 TWh/year exchanges Replaces former TSO organisations: ATSOI, BALTSO, ETSO, NORDEL, UCTE, UKTSOA 7 May

9 Wind Integration in Europe The EWIS Project 1) Existing planned network developments generally sufficient for high wind scenarios in south of Europe; but 2) Additional risk mitigation measures and reinforcements needed to accommodate high wind conditions in Northern Europe. EWIS Executive Summary and Final Report are available for download on EWIS website - Onshore installations - Offshore wind park cluster until Bulk power flow - Bottleneck Bulk DC power flow at rated line capacity 7 May

10 EWIS Results: Priority Areas for Immediate Actions 1. ENTSO-E TYNDP: EWIS findings and recommendations for the future European wide coordinated planning of the electricity grid within ENTSO-E 2. Progress urgently needed grid infrastructure projects in existing national grid development plans: permitting procedures for grid investments have to be accelerated 3. Start to analyze for the longer term (2020/2025) potential of offshore grids interconnecting wind farms and countries across the sea and including the implications on onshore grids. 7 May

15 Off-Shore Grid Development - Interdependencies Identification of Drivers Society/ Research Politial Willingness Governments/ Ministries, EC Regulatory Scheme Ministries/ Regulators Design of Market Rules TSOs Regulators, EC Technical Solutions TSOs Developers Manufacturers Various stakeholders already provided studies on off-shore grids TSOs are expected to provide harmonised solutions TSOs need to know basic framework conditions to prepare suitable solutions Depending on framework conditions, solutions may differ A common understanding between all stakeholders about the tasks and challenges is decisive. => to move forward, parallel work of all stakeholders is necessary 7 May

16 Major North Sea Off-Shore Grid Stakeholder Platforms EC-Coordination the Adamowitsch Working Group Extended Pentalateral Energy Forum (PLEF+) North Seas Countries Off-Shore Grid Initiative Friends of the Supergrid ENTSO-E Regional Group North Sea 7 May

17 Political Willingness Governments Clarify responsibilities Support proactive investments Create public awareness Faster permissions and authorizations TSOs Support PLEF+/North Seas Countries Off-Shore Grid Initiative Clarify barriers Common vision on integrated off-shore grid Clarify sitting and timing of off-shore wind 7 May

18 Regulatory Scheme Governments TSOs Allow proactive cost recovery Develop modular coordinated construction Standarization of regulatory schemes Propose alignment of security / planning standards and connection rules Support R&D efforts Common treatment of R&D efforts 7 May

19 Market Rules Governments TSOs Allow for cross-border RE flows in combination with RE subsidies Clarity on prioritized grid usage Off-shore Masterplan 7 May

20 Technical Solutions Governments Masterplan to encourage supply chain Cooperate closer with stakeholders TSOs Standardization of technology European Transmission System Development Plan 7 May

21 Overall Conclusions ENTSO-E and ACER will ensure that national TSOs, regulators and governments move from national thinking to European thinking and approaches. International solutions concerning the development of offshore/onshore grids have to be developed. National solutions to EU-requirements differ and now have to be coordinated internationally e.g. rules challenging each other: open market vs priority of RE, level and kind of RE-subsidies, common control and dispatch of RE etc Permission procedures for transmission grids have to be accelerated, both, on- and offshore. 7 May
