Common use of Allocation Principles Clause in Contracts

Allocation Principles. Rules and methodologies 1. Manual load/production shedding shall be allocated to areas with largest lack of reserves according to the net reserve situation in the different areas. The Net reserve situation is defined by if an area has sufficient available mFRR to cover the ACE OL for the area. 2. In case of sharing of reserves, the TSO that will be rewarded for the reserves is the TSO where the reserves are physically located. 3. In case of an uncongested Nordic synchronous area, manual load/production shedding shall be executed by the TSO which has the largest lack of reserves in its control area according to the net reserve situation. 4. In case of a congested Nordic synchronous area, manual load/production shedding shall be executed by the TSO which has the largest lack of reserves in its relevant LFC area(s) according to the net reserve situation considering the deficit/surplus area "behind" the congestion(s). 5. If the calculations result in "similar reserve situations" (difference in net reserve situation ≤ 200 MW) in relevant areas for two or more TSOs, the TSOs will be responsible for an equal share of the total need for manual load/production shedding.
