ACER is gathering views and information regarding the proposal for the amendment of the Methodology for pricing balancing energy and cross-border capacity used for the exchange of balancing energy or operating the imbalance netting process
Mr Cristian Zinglersen, Director of the EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER), was invited as a guest speaker today to update the Eurogroup on recent energy price developments.
ACER has received on 26 August 2021 all transmission system operators’ proposal to amend the common methodology for harmonising the pricing balancing energy and cross-border capacity across the European electricity markets.
ACER publishes a methodological study to measure barriers to efficient price formation and easy market entry and participation for new and small players in the EU electricity wholesale markets.
The Baltic energy regulators (Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Sweden) requested from ACER a three-month extension to decide on the capacity calculation methodology for long-term timeframes.
ENTSO-E submitted its proposal for ERAA 2024 for ACER approval in April 2025. ACER will issue its decision in July 2025. ACER also requested ENTSO-E to propose amendments to the ERAA methodology by mid-October 2025.
