TRADING OFFSHORE WIND IN THE INTERNAL ELECTRICITY MARKET

Track: POLICY

Room K1


Paul Wilczek, European Wind Energy Association (EWEA)
Achim Woyte, 3E, Belgium

Session description

Today’s electricity markets are driven by daily and seasonal changes in demand, which call on different types of electricity generation with different costs to be dispatched. Ongoing projects such as Kriegers Flak and a future North Sea Grid will create regional markets dominated by large amounts of wind constituting market areas with predominantly low prices. This session will analyse the different impacts of a large in-feed of offshore wind on regional markets in both the North and Baltic Sea against the background of the recent adoption of the 3rd Liberalisation Package. The session will also examine best market design options.
