      b) For RES Units with Market Participation Obligation under a DSAS Contract Article 22.6 of this Rulebook shall not apply.

  • For the purposes of Calculation of Production Imbalances for RES Units with Market Participation Obligation under a DSAS Contract, each non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio shall be generally symbolized as erep,oper,z, where:

    • rep the RES Units Portfolio representative. The non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolios shall be represented by a RES Producer, a RES Aggregator or by the Last Resort RES Aggregator.

    • oper the operational status, which corresponds to normal operation under a DSAS contract or Testing Operation under a DSAS contract.

    • z the HETS Bidding Zones.

    1. The Final Imbalance of a non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio under a DSAS Contract, erep,oper,z, for an Imbalance Settlement Period shall be equal to the difference between the quantity of energy that results on the basis of the Entity's certified measurement data and the Entity’s Market Schedule as given below:

      FIMBe rep,oper,z t = MQ erep,oper,z t - MS erep,oper,z t 

      Where,
      FIMBerep,oper,zt    the quantity of the Final Imbalance in MWh for a non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio under a DSAS Contract erep,oper,z  and the Imbalance Settlement Period t..
      MQerep,oper,zt   the amount of energy at the Connection Point with the HETS or the Distribution Network, in MWh, resulting from the certified metered data of the non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio under a DSAS Contracterep,oper,z for the Imbalance Settlement Period t
      MSerep,oper,zt    The Market Schedule of the non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio under a DSAS Contract erep,oper,z for the Imbalance Settlement Period t

       

    1. For each Imbalance Settlement Period t the HETS Operator shall calculate the debit / credit IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt in € and the debit / credit IMBC_Berep,oper,zt in € for each non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio under a DSAS Contract e, as follows:

      IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt = FIMBerep,oper,zt  × DAMPz,t
      and
      IMBC_Berep,oper,zt = FIMBerep,oper,zt  × (IPt - DAMPz,t)

      Where:
      FIMBerep,oper,zt   the quantity of the Final Imbalance, in MWh, for the non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio erep,oper,z for the Imbalance Settlement Period t.
      DAMPz,t   the price of the Day-Ahead Market in MWh for each Bidding Zone z for the Market Time Unit.

    2. The above debits / credits shall be collected or allocated by the Clearing House as follows:

      1) For a non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio erep,oper,z which is represented by a RES Producer or RES Aggregator in normal operation or Testing Operation and belongs to the Bidding Zone z,

      i. when the amount IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt  is found to be negative, the RES Producer or RES Aggregator must pay the calculated amount, whereas when the amount IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt  is found to be positive, the RES Producer or RES Aggregator is entitled to collect the calculated amount,
      ii. when the amount IMBC_Berep,oper,zt  is found to be negative, the calculated amount is charged to DAPEEP, whereas when the amount IMBC_Berep,oper,zt  is found to be positive, the calculated amount is credited to DAPEEP.

      2) For a non-Dispatchable RES Units Portfolio erep,oper,z which is represented by the Last Resort RES Aggregator in normal operation or Testing Operation and belongs to the Bidding Zone z,

      i. when the amounts IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt  and IMBC_Berep,oper,zt  are found to be negative, they are charged to the Last Resort RES Aggregator,
      ii. when the amounts IMBC_Aerep,oper,zt  and IMBC_Berep,oper,zt  are found to be positive, they are credited to the Last Resort RES Aggregator.
