On 26th April 2012, the SEM Committee published a consultation paper on the treatment of curtailment issues in a tie-break situation. That consultation paper, SEM-12-028, outlined four options for implementation. Respondents to SEM-12-028 were asked to provide supporting factual/impact based data, which clearly demonstrated the net effects of any ultimate decision on curtailment.
The SEM Committee has now reached a proposed decision on the matter, which is published for comment by stakeholders. Two other documents are published - a TSO report examining the effect of three options outlined in SEM-12-028 on Dispatch Balancing Costs and wind curtailment.
The other document is a TSO annex setting out the proposed methodology for distinguishing between events of constraints and curtailment. Stakeholders are asked to comment on this document. Please note that responses recieved to SEM-12-028 will be published on the AIP website in the coming days.
Responses received to the Consultation SEM-12-028 can be viewed below also.
