5 Facing new realities... which result in energy transition (to smart energy) 5

6 New factors coming... The conventional network planning and development is subjected to a number of new uncertainties and push factors TSO DSO consumer empowerment closed distribution system ESCOs energy service companies 6

7 Just a few new names Active customer, prosumer New concepts and definitions Interoperability Demand response Aggregator Local energy community in response to involved in distributed generation and in performing activities of a DSO, supplier or aggregator at local level market signals, including time-variable electricity prices or incentive payments acceptance of the final customer's bid, alone or through aggregation, to sell demand reduction or increase in organised markets 7

8 EU DSO ENTITY (to be established) 8

9 EU DSO Entity: Tasks A lot of tasks is delegated to upcoming EU DSO Entity Development of demand response Participation in the elaboration of network codes Digitalisation of distribution networks including deployment of smart grids and intelligent metering systems Coordinated operation and planning of transmission and distribution networks Integration of renewable energy resources, distributed generation and other resources embedded in the distribution network such as energy storage; Identify best practices in Europe If the subject-matter of the network code is directly related operation of the distrib. system and less relevant for the transm. system, the Commission may require the EU DSO entity (instead of the ENTSO-E) to submit a proposal for a network code to the ACER Work on introduction of energy efficiency improvements in the distribution network. Data management, cyber security and data protection 9

10 Distribution network development plans 10

11 Distribution network development plans DSOs shall develop distribution network development plans USE OF FLEXIBILITY The development of a distribution system shall be based on a transparent network development plan DSO shall submit a PLAN every two years to the regulatory authority PLAN shall contain the planned investments for the next 10 years PLAN shall give particular emphasis on the main distribution infrastructure required in order to connect new generation capacity and new loads including recharging points for electric vehicles Member States may decide not to apply this obligation to integrated undertakings serving less than connected consumers, or serving isolated systems. PLAN shall demonstrate how the alternative to system expansion is used (demand response, energy efficiency, energy storage facilities or other resources) 11

12 Transmission network development plans 12

13 National ten-year network development plans At least every two years TSOs shall submit to the regulatory authority a PLAN HOW TO DRAFT A PLAN? IMPLEMENTATION OF PLAN PLAN shall contain efficient measures in order to guarantee the adequacy of the system and the security of supply PLAN shall contain all the investments already decided and identify new investments which have to be executed in the next 3 years PLAN shall provide for a time frame for all investment projects. TSOr shall make reasonable assumptions about the evolution of the generation, supply, energy storage, consumption and exchanges with other countries TSO shall take into account investment plans for regional and Union-wide networks The regulatory authority shall monitor and evaluate the implementation of the PLAN If TSO does not execute an investment, the regulatory authority is required to take at least one of the following measures to ensure that the investment in question is made to require the TSO to execute the investments in question to organise a tender procedure open to any investors for the investment in question to oblige the TSO to accept a capital increase to finance the necessary investments and allow independent investors to participate in the capital Authority may oblige the TSO to agree to: financing by any third party; construction by any third party 13

14 Union s ten-year network development plans (TYNDP) Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators shall examine national and Union s TYNDPs ENTSO-E ENTSO-E shall adopt and publish a non binding Unionwide TYNDP (every two years) National investment plans Union-wide PLAN shall: build on national investment plans. taking to account regional investment plans identify investment gaps, notably with repect to cross-border capacities ACER opinion ACER shall provide an opinion on Union-wide TYNDP ACER opinion ACER shall provide an opinion on the national TYNDP to assess their consistency with the Union-wide TYNDP 14

20 Strategic SAIDI and SAIFI planning approach 1. Pressure from business Industry and business are increasingly concerned about higher electricity quality and reliability of supply 3. Added value of better SAIDI and SAIFI Government launches the research study to evaluate the increase of profits from industry and business due to higher reliability of electricity supply within a territory in question 5. Reliability increase strategy Government entitles the Regulating Authority to implement the planned SAIDI and SAIFI values on annual basis in the territories in question 2. Extension of industrial and commercial areas National/regional governements make territorial planning with the view to develop business in specific areas over next 10 years 4. Comparison of added value to increased reliability costs The study finds whether putting in place higher SAIDI and SAIFI is justified by the gains of added value
