8 Independent APX shareholder: grid company 100% Shareholder grid company: Dutch state Completely independent Firm trading system Back-up systems APX always produces a price Dutch state 100% Grid operator TenneT APX 100% Pagina 8

9 APX group First combined exchange in electricity & natural gas EnMO APXUK APX International Multi-commodity Added value Pagina 9

10 Cross-border allocation methods (New lines) Non-market based: First come first serve Pro rate curtailing Market based: Explicit autioning Implicit auctioning, market splitting/coupling Counterbuying,, compensating re-dispatch Pagina 10

11 Some congested borders in Europe Reasons: Historical policy Fuel decisions Local taxation X - No. Of major generators - Constraints / Auctions - Operating exchanges New lines: Slow Huge investment Political reasons might fade over time Optimize existing capacity! Pagina 11

12 Non-market based methods Stable when no congestion or non-competition Unstable when there is a real value and full competition First come first serve: fax run in the opening seconds Pro rata: gaming for ever-bigger subscription volumes Pagina 12

13 Market based methods Attribute an economical value to the good being limitedly available: transmission capacity Explicit auctioning: Explicit auction transmission capacity Cap. price Maximum im/export Pagina 13

14 Explicit auctioning Creates stability Drawbacks: Risky Suitable for bigger players No contribution to liquidity on either side No netting of im & exports Creates a barrier even at times when there is no congestion! Leads to a fragmented European market Pagina 14

15 From explicit towards implicit transmission auction method Auction revenue Explicit auction transmission capacity Prijs Spot market Area A Maximom export Spot market Area B Cap. price? Maximum im/export Maximum import Quantity Quantity Pagina 15

16 Implicit auction without constraints: one integrated market Explicit auction transmission capacity Prijs Spot market Area A Maximom export Spot market Area B Cap. price? Maximum im/export Maximum import Quantity Quantity Pagina 16

17 Market Coupling, Nordic (1): situation with no transport capacity Spot Market Area A high price Spot Market Area B low price Isolated markets with a price difference Price Price Quantity Quantity Pagina 17

18 Market Coupling (2): situation with sufficient transport capacity Spot Market Area A prices equal Spot Market Area B prices equal Spot Markets and prices unified by transport capacity Price Price imports exports Quantity Quantity Pagina 18

19 Market Coupling (3): situation with limited transport capacity Spot Market Area A higher price Spot Market Area B lower price Spot Markets and prices differ but are connected Price imports Price exports Implicit Capacity auction: revenues to Grid Operators Quantity Quantity Pagina 19

20 Advantages Integration of daily capacity auction + spot market One step instead of two Diminishing trading risk, market power Better suitable for hedging Local traders also acting internationally Netting of im/exports (optizing( use of cap.) Bigger liquidity One market when there is no congestion Pagina 20

21 Example: Brussels Power Exchange BPX Spot market: BPX Brussels Power Exchange: Belgian price Implicit auction of transmission capacity Extra liquidity by VPP measure VPP = Virtual Power Plant Production rights on inc. producer Pagina 21

22 Example: Belgian market and Dutch market, explicit cross-border auctions Market parties would sell preferably in NL Directly crossing the border by buying crossborder capacity Import from the south: transit transit APX No liquidity for the Belgian market Also VPP s No added value for Belgium Pagina 22

23 Implicit auction method System developed for APX / BPX Transmission capacity no longer sold to market parties Im- /export through spot market: BPX BPXexportimport APX All liquidity inside Belgium Including VPP liquidity Added value Pagina 23

24 Re-dispatch: inside price areas Example: Oversupply Overdemand constrained connection In spite of constraints : - Free contracting - Market contracts remain - Whole region 1spot price - Stimulates market liquidity Requirements: - System Operator needed - Costs of counter-buying by SO are charged in grid tariff Between countries / price areas: very expensive! Pagina 24

25 Conclusions Liberalization leads to emerging economical forces, leading to emerging constraints Non-market based methods unstable Explicit auctioning stable but fragmenting Implicit auctioning: future opportunity Pagina 25
