The electricity market is rapidly changing
» Different system
» Different market parties
» Different trading
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
The electricity system will be fundamentally different
» Energy efficiency
» Decentralised production
» Volatile generation

Trading patterns are changing
Example: Implicit Day-Ahead trade volumes have drastically increased
Source of data is EPEX Spot
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Swiss market is increasingly instable and inappropriate
» Responsibility of Balance Groups?
» Efficiency of the “Energy Only Market”?
» Integration in EU-market?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Responsibility of Balance Groups is tested
» Balance Groups are responsible for
the functioning of the market.
» But what does it mean for each
Balance Group to ensure a balanced
portfolio?
» What is the role of the TSO in
ensuring grid stability?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Efficiency of the «Energy Only Market» is questioned
» Do today’s marginal prices reflect
the real value?
» Do we need a regulated capacity
mechanism, support payments?
» Is cross-border trading still efficient
or should it be adapted?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Situation with EU creates considerable uncertainty
» Cooperation with EU heavily
impacted by Bilateral
Negotiations
» Solution without EU and
neighbouring countries
problematic
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
We must face this together
» Swissgrid facilitates the
market, ensures grid
stability
» Market parties ensure the
functioning of the market
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Two-step approach to develop the Swiss market design
We have engaged you in a
cooperation to
» Reduce risks
» Increase efficiency
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Short-term: Reduce imminent risks with smaller changes
» Sharpen a common understanding of Balance
Group responsibility
» Main points: KYC-process, position limits,
contractual clarifications
» Discussed intensively with BG representatives
since last User Group Meeting
 Consultation starts tomorrow, 12th Nov 2015
 Implementation proposed by Mid 2016
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Long-term: More fundamental changes
» Increase efficiency and innovation,
build on Swiss values and specifics
» Main points: Price signal, adequacy
responsibility, cross-border trading
» Worked on these topics with many
stakeholders in several projects
 Workshops today, start “informal consultation”
till end of this year
 Implementation decisions will follow in 2016
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
A common goal
With the development of the
market design, we try to
exploit potentials of the future
electricity system

Know your Customer-Process
Tim Albersmann, Project Manager Customer Affairs
Mövenpick-Hotel Zurich Airport, 11th November 2015
Virtualisation and internationalisation are growing
challenges for trustful business relationships
» Growing international
balance group portfolio
» Loss of relationships and
trust values due to
virtualization
» Take on responsibly is
essential for a working
Swiss market and network
stability as well

Companies with different business models and
characteristics participate in the Swiss market
» Established company ↔
Start-up
» Big ↔ Small
» Trading and/or supplying
customers
» Shared processes ↔ All inhouse

11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Balance Group Management is of central importance for
the Swiss electricity market
» National and international
physical processing of trades
» Supplying end customers
» Power frequency control
» Control energy use
» Settlement of balance energy
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Balance Group Management also provides input for grid
management and security analysis
» The set point for the system controller is thus determined from all cross-border
schedules
» Cross-border schedules and the power plants' production schedules provide an
important determining factor for the grid security analysis
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Highest priority for Swissgrid is maintaining the security of
supply at all times
»
± 800-900 MW control
reserves are available for
this purpose, among other
measures within the Swiss
control area
» Control reserves are not
meant to be used for secure
trading
» Control reserves are meant
for short-term consumption
and production deviations
» Each balance group is
obliged to reach a zero
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
In order to provide network security and a functioning
Swiss market, it is essential to take on responsibilites
TSO
» Ensures network stability
» Provides a suitable BGM «framework»
and reliable market
» Low utilization of control energy
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Market
» Capable to operate scheduling
processes in a professional manner
» Responsible for being zero balanced
» Handles the contractual commitment
The Swiss market relies on all participants to take on
their responsibilites
» A single imbalance is able to endanger the whole
Swiss electricity system
» The Swiss electricity system places its trust in all
participants
» This works only if we can rely on all participants to
assume their responsibility - without a single
exception!
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Three major things we have learned from cases of
imbalances
» Capability to handle
complex products and
processes is key for each
market participant
» Risk processes can break
down the risks of complexity
to a manageable level
» Availability
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
How can we make sure that every entity
assumes its responsibility?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Create a shared understanding
of risks and solutions
Introduction of Limits
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Build up trustful relationships
through
Know Your Customer (KYC)
approach
Review and clarification of BGM
contract
The «KYC» approach will enable us to mitigate risks and
provide a safe market environment
» We need to be able to trust that market participants are able to handle the
contractual commitment
» We will check that responsibilities can be taken on before activation and
during operations
» Focus on the current BG portfolio and future market participants
» To lift anonymity and to build strong business relations is essential to trust
» Knowledge about the portfolio will enable us to manage risks appropriately
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
The «KYC» approach is based on three key elements and
will complement the registration and activation process
Identity
Analysis and proof of
basic identity information
Context
Risks
Understanding the
context scheduling is
used for in the business
model
Evaluation of trading
positions, consumption
and risk mitigating
capabilities
BG registration and activation process
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
In order to track changes in the BG Portfolio, the «KYC»
approach is ongoing
Identity

capabilities
BG registration and activation process
Operational processes
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Before activation and during operation the Balance Group
needs to meet requirements and contractual commitments
» General requirements need
to be met for the activation
and ongoing operational
processes
» Obligation and compliance
for specific scheduling
processes are necessary to
provide a secure network
and Swiss market place
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
The Balance Groups should meet the following essential
requirements and contractual commitments
General requirements
Scheduling process-specific
requirements
» To pass the registration
process successfully
» Obligation to generally provide
a zero power balance
» To update or provide the
required information for the
registration
» Compliance with:
− the submitted schedule
− the limits*
− the plausibility values for
consumption and
production*
» To provide an operational
contact and the availability
thereof to the agreed extent
» Submission of the consumption
forecast for balance groups
with metering points
* will be introduced in the next presentation

Open positions which cannot be closed at physical
delivery endanger the network security
~
Severe endangerment of the
network security by
» an important imbalance of
a single balance group, or
» a number of middle-sized
imbalances of balance
groups.
Financial Risk: Large
imbalances lead to a
significant financial claim.
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Control reserves
(800-900 MW) are limited
and are not a disposable
value for balance groups.
» PCP ± 71 MW
» SCP ~ ±400 MW
» TCP ~ +450 MW
-300 MW

A severe violation of the
network security due to an
imbalance from open
positions would put into
question our current market
framework.
Today: No instrument to
target open positions in the
intraday process
» Balance groups are
obliged to close their
positions latest at COT
Post Scheduling
Adjustment.
» Daily experience shows
that the closing of
positions in the Post
Scheduling Process is
difficult.
§
The market is yours!
» It is the responsibility of
each balance group to
operate the business in a
safe manner.
» Swissgrid operates the
market, but cannot take on
responsibility for balance
groups.
» Market participants carry the
responsibility together for a
well functioning and safe
market place.
Challenges are discussed in close collaboration with
market participants

Penalties from exceeding Limit 3 can be waived
List of exceptions:
» Intervention in power plant deployment by Swissgrid (critical grid situation)
» Redispatch measures
» Delegation of activated tertiary control reserve
» Outage of the schedule systems on the part of the BG
» Production failure / power plant outage
» Outdated plausibility values leading to a penalty
» Deviation of control pooling delivery to control energy request

The open position is based on the received TPS Schedule
Document
Basic procedures:
» The open position is calculated from the received time series in the TPS Schedule
Document.
» In case a time series is rejected, the last accepted version will be used to
calculate the open position.
» In case a new time series is rejected, the time series counts as 0.
» Market rules, copy from counter-schedule or manual intervention always precede.

» Pump capacity, redispatch and control energy not to be included.
» Deviation of specified definition by up to a maximum of 20% of the daily
consumption volume in justified exceptional cases.
» Example: existing net forecast from clients of a balance group.
Basic guidelines:
» First nomination before 14:30 in the day-ahead process in the TPS Schedule
Document.
» Updates in the intraday process.
» No updates in the post scheduling adjustment.
» The CONS time series is checked against the 𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝑆𝑆𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀 and 𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝐶𝑆𝑆𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀 values.

Swissgrid can react quickly in cases of contract breach
Breaches of the contract can lead to risks for the security of
supply or to a financial risk for Swissgrid or other market
players.
Swissgrid has to react quickly to safeguard the functioning of
the system.
A balance group that violates essential contractual obligations may be excluded
in the short term from all scheduling activities.
Swissgrid will always first try to find solutions together with the balance group.
A suspension can be revoked as soon as the balance group can prove that it is
able to fulfil its contractual obligations.

Future challenges require further development of the
market design
» Transformation process from a centralized towards a decentralized generation
system continues – how to integrate intermittent generation and the demand-side
into the market design?
» The European target model for electricity markets is nearly finished – which
additional elements requires a future-proof market design?
» National capacity market models in Europe are in place – how to harmonize them
with the further development of the Internal Energy Market?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Proposal: combine innovative, European concepts!
» Market design is to be adapted, while keeping the present advantages:
 Efficient EOM, European integration, …
» Build on innovative but existing concepts from within Europe and combine these to
a consistent, market-oriented concept:
 Create a strong real-time price signal, continuous across timeframes
 Create a true European approach for adequacy
 Enhance XB-optimization across all timeframes

A European and market-based approach for adequacy
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Approaches of European countries to security of supply are
drifting apart
Europe is currently characterized by a
patchwork of national CRMs,
Hedging responsibility is placed on
different stakeholders.

11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Strengthen role of market players in adequacy
» In a liberalised market, market players have an implicit responsibility for their
balance groups: They are «Balancing Responsible Parties» (BRPs).
» In the Swiss balancing group contract, the BRPs are responsible for keeping their
own position balanced at all times. Many other countries have alike solutions.
» From our perspective, this balancing responsibility includes prognosis and, if
needed, forward hedging of sufficient resources for their end-customer supply.
We propose to further develop the market incentive in this respect
− Strengthen the price signal, as seen before
− Regional approach to security of supply
− Participation of foreign providers in national capacity mechanisms
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Regional approach to Security of Supply
Swissgrid proposes main principles:
» Adequacy should be tradeable across
borders:
˗
participation of foreign providers in
national CRMs
˗
increasing harmonization of CRM
designs
» Adequacy should be assessed regionally,
or better, on European level
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Example: Regional approach reveals efficiency
Swissgrid is actively working on regionalization of security of supply, with
neighbouring and CWE TSOs.

Optimization of cross-border trading

Optimization of cross-border trading
Swissgrid is an observer in the CWE Flow-Based project and plays an active role in
the European Cross-Border Intraday (XBID) project.
Swissgrid also developed the technical readiness for the participation in various
European market coupling initiatives.
Political circumstances create doubts whether Switzerland will soon be able to
participate in the aforementioned initiatives and to increase European social welfare
in the near future.
 What else can we do in order to increase the trans-national electricity system
efficiency with neighbouring countries?
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Optimization of cross-border trading
Swissgrid proposes the following measures:
1. Convergence of National and Cross-Border Gate Closure Times
2. 15-Minute Intraday Call Auction Between Germany and Switzerland
3. Introduction of Intraday Border Auctions
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Convergence of national and cross-border
gate closure times
Flexible generators (or the demand-side) have problems to support system
balancing on the intraday market in neighbouring countries:
» Relatively long cross-border nomination lead times
» Missing harmonization of national intraday products (e.g. granularity)
Social welfare generation based on intraday cross-border transactions is limited.
Swissgrid aims to reduce the lead-time for the nomination of cross-border intraday
trading transactions and to support the trading of products with a resolution of 15
minutes.
11th November 2015 / User Group Meeting BGM 2015
Convergence of national and cross-border
gate closure times
Prices and volatility usually strongly increases towards gate closure of intraday
markets; this is an indication of system balancing challenges.

Evaluation of a 15-Minute intraday call auction
» Due to the auction, the market benefits from a concentration of liquidity at
the beginning of the intraday process and a transparent reference price for
the 15-minute contracts of the continuous trading process could be given.
» Due to the aforementioned advantages, Swissgrid evaluates whether the
implementation of an Intraday call auction might also provide additional
value for the Swiss market.

Introduction of intraday border auctions
Intraday capacity is currently allocated on a «first come first served» basis
» «First come first served» is an administrative capacity allocation method
» Capacity rights are allocated free of charge according to the temporal order
of capacity requests
» There is an obligation to use the allocated capacity

Current price signals are insufficient
Current prices are:
» Discontinuous: insufficient connection between day ahead and intraday
markets
» Intransparent: imbalance prices are published 2.5 months after delivery
» Biased: imbalance prices do not reflect true cost/value of imbalances
→ As a result, there are insufficient/distorted investment incentives

What are your views on these measures?
•
Do the stakeholder support the Swissgrid proposal to implement a (near) realtime imbalance price?
•
Do the stakeholders consider the proposed hedging products to be appropriate
for the hedging of potentially volatile imbalance prices? Are there other
proposals?
•
Do the stakeholders see a necessity to formally integrate the role of an
independent aggregator that bundles and markets flexible resources into the
market design? Do stakeholders expect that this new role would increase social
welfare and support a beneficial demand-side response utilization in
Switzerland?
In general:
Are these the right measures? What other measures would be needed?
