3 CEER/EC-activities to Smart Grids regulation CEER Status Review on European Regulatory Approaches Enabling Smart Grids Solutions ( Smart Regulation ) The definition of smart grids The regulatory and commercial challenges Plans for implementation of smart grids Encouraging innovative solutions in el. networks Cost benefit analysis Potential performance indicators Regulatory and Commercial Challenges Regulations vary at national level integration of RES/EV, customer engagement in DSR, data protection Roles and Responsibilities DSO major role - TSOs to a lesser extent Customers are involved in DSR in a few countries Incentive Mechanisms mechanisms are in place to incentivise DSOs to undertake innovation projects projects funded by network charges & other sources EG3 Flexibility Smart Grids PC SG CP SG SR SG Smart Regulation

4 Potential key issues last mile! Incentives Mechanisms Structure Opportunities that Smart grids could deliver interactions and synergies of gas, electricity, heat and cooling to increase flexibility 1 Smart Grids Demand Side Response & flexibility maximise incentives minimise entry barriers Regulatory and Commercial Potential Barriers, including: Arrangements: data access (previous work) role of the DSOs/TSOs use of storage trading/provision of smart grid services use market mechanism whenever possible! 4

7 Flexibility Definition of Flexibility (gas and electricity!) Rational. Why do we need flexibility? Consumer Empowerment Flexibility services 7

8 Users: list of Flexibility services national differences DSO TSO frequency control primary secondary tertiary Provider: TSO frequency response domestic consumers TSO short term operating reserve DSO TSO TSO fast response peak shifting (avoid grid reinforcement) commercial consumers overall load reduction Supplier DSO TSO constraints management (load reduction) portfolio optimization industrial consumers Supplier peak shifting Supplier valley filling distributed generators DSO fault management DSO DSO TSO voltage control losses reduction generators (> 5 MW) TSO black start reserve 8

9 Flexibility Key Enablers: Smart Appliances and Smart Meters Regulation & Codes Grid and retail products & tariffs Market rules and processes ICT technology and standards Value of flexibility Benefits for providers of flexibility services Benefits for users of flexibility services Maximising the value of Flexibility Services 9
