NWE Market Coupling - Information for N2EX Members

London, 2013-09-19 11:15 GMT                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                The North Western Europe (NWE) market coupling project is coming closer to completion with a final go-live date due for agreement at a JSC (Joint Steering Committee) meeting being held on September 26th.

 

How will NWE impact the UK day-ahead auction - N2EX ?               

The launch of NWE will see the introduction of price coupling across day-ahead wholesale electricity markets across Europe. A single algorithm (Euphemia) will simultaneously calculate market prices, net positions and flows on interconnectors between the regions.

We have published a guidance document (link below) which provides an overview of the main changes for N2EX members, including the need to move the N2EX auction gate closure time to 11:00am (GMT/BST) to align with Europe.  http://www.nordpoolspot.com/Global/Download%20Center/NWE-Market-Coupling-Information-for-N2EX-Members.pdf
