ACER webinar: Monitoring cross-zonal electricity capacity & emergency measures

This webinar will present the key findings of the two market monitoring reports published in July of 2023 on emergency measures, and on the 70% margin for cross-zonal capacities respectively.

Webinar pre-readings:

• ACER Assessment of emergency measures in electricity markets and accompanying news alert (with infographic); and
• Cross-zonal capacities and the 70% margin available for cross-zonal electricity trade (MACZT) and accompanying news alert (with infographic).

Event objective:

As part of its monitoring obligations, ACER must identify any barriers to the completion of the internal markets for electricity and natural gas. ACER is organising a webinar to present the conclusions of two ACER reports in its 2023 Market Monitoring Report (MMR) series:

• Assessment of emergency measures affecting electricity markets;
• Cross-zonal capacities and the 70% margin available for cross-zonal electricity trade (MACZT)

With this online event, ACER intends to:

• Present the main conclusions of each report;
• Discuss these conclusions with a panel of experts; and
• Address questions and gather views from stakeholders regarding the findings.

ACER is running a public consultation (21 July – 15 September 2023) on its report on cross-zonal capacities and the margin available for cross-zonal electricity trade (MACZT). Based on its findings, ACER will issue a formal opinion with recommendations to the European Commission and European Parliament by the end of the year.
