Communication note (Bucharest, March 18, 2021)
18 March 2021: SDAC webinar on the implementation of the DE-AT-PL-4M MC (Interim Coupling) Project
The Interim Coupling project aims to connect the 4M MC with the Multi-Regional Coupling (MRC) by introducing Net Transmission Capacity (NTC) based implicit capacity allocation on the following six borders: PL-DE, PL-CZ, PL-SK, CZ-DE, CZ-AT, and HU-AT. The operational go-live of the new solution is currently targeted for 10 June 2021. It will mark the transition to a single coupled auction for the day-ahead market across the countries covered by MRC and 4M MC. Against that background, the project represents a milestone for the completion of the European Single Day-Ahead Coupling (SDAC).
NEMOs and TSOs will arrange a webinar to provide market participants with detailed information about the expected changes and the planned Member Tests.
The webinar is due to be held on 21 April 2021 afternoon.
Further details on the agenda of the webinar and the dial-in information will be communicated closer to the date.
