All TSOs' proposal for the key organisational requirements, roles and responsibilities in relation to data exchange

Overview

This consultation concerns the all TSOs' proposal for key organisational requirements, roles and responsibilities in relation to data exchange (KORRR proposal) developed in accordance with article 40(6) of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 of 2 August 2017 establishing a guideline on electricity transmission system operation (SO GL).

SOGL requires all TSOs to jointly agree, by 6 months after entry into force of SOGL, on key organisational requirements, roles and responsibilities in relation to data exchange. Those organisational requirements, roles and responsibilities shall take into account and complement where necessary the operational conditions of the generation and load data methodology developed in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2015/1222. They shall apply to all data exchange provisions in data exchange Title in SO GL and shall include organisational requirements, roles and responsibilities for the following elements:

(a) obligations for TSOs to communicate without delay to all neighbouring TSOs any changes in the protection settings, thermal limits and technical capacities at the interconnectors between their control areas;

(b) obligations for DSOs directly connected to the transmission system to inform the TSOs they are connected to, within the agreed timescales, of any changes in the data and information pursuant to data exchange Title in SO GL;

(c) obligations for the adjacent DSOs and/or between the downstream DSO and upstream DSO to inform each other within agreed timescales of any changes in the data and information pursuant to data exchange Title in SO GL;

(d) obligations for SGUs to inform their TSO or DSO, within agreed timescales, about any relevant changes in the data and information established pursuant to data exchange Title in SO GL;

(e) detailed contents of the data and information established pursuant to data exchange Title in SO GL, including main principles, type of data, communication means, format and standards to be applied, timing and responsibilities;

(f) the time stamping and frequency of delivery of the data and information to be provided by DSOs and SGUs, to be used by TSOs in the different timescales. The frequency of information exchanges for real-time data, scheduled data and update of structural data shall be defined; and

(g) the format for the reporting of the data and information established pursuant to data exchange Title in SO GL.

In order to facilitate the understanding of the proposal, a supporting document and slides from the 8 June 2017 stakeholder workshop are provided for information together with the proposal below under Related Documents.
