European Daily Electricity Markets should become more integrated. National regulators in Germany, Austria, Poland and countries associated in the market coupling, such as Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romany have already asked to launch a temporary project of the interconnection of daily electricity markets among the countries mentioned above, applying the methodology of the net transfer capacity. The aim is to develop regional integration of daily electricity markets. “This project will be an important step towards the extended integrated European interconnection of daily markets laid down in the European legislation,“ the Regulatory Office for Network Industries informed. All parties involved opine that the project will not only lead to more effective allocation of cross-countries capacities at the borders, higher social benefits, but also to an improvement in the price convergence. “This will contribute to more reliable electricity price settings on regional daily electricity markets, higher liquidity and more business opportunities for market participants in the region,“ the Slovak regulator stated.
