Recital 3
Recital 3
(3) Europe's energy system is in the middle of its most profound change in decades and the electricity market is at the heart of that change. The common goal to decarbonise the energy system creates new opportunities and challenges for market participants. At the same time, technological developments allow for new forms of consumer participation and cross- border cooperation. These also help to respond to the lack of access to modern electricity services.

(5) In the past, electricity customers were purely passive, often buying electricity at regulated prices which had no direct relation to the market. In the future, customers need to be enabled to fully participate in the market on equal footing with other market participants. To integrate growing shares of renewable energy, the future electricity system should make use of all available sources of flexibility, particularly demand response and storage. To achieve effective decarbonisation at lowest cost, it also needs to encourage energy efficiency and thus reduce the energy demand.

(10) Short-term markets will improve liquidity and competition by enabling more resources to participate fully in the market, especially those that are more flexible. Effective scarcity pricing will encourage market participants to be available when the market most needs it and ensures that they can recover their costs in the wholesale market. It is therefore critical to ensure that, as far as possible, administrative and implicit price caps are removed to allow scarcity prices to increase up to the value of lost load. When fully embedded in the market structure, short-term markets and scarcity pricing will contribute to the removal of other measures, such as capacity mechanisms, to ensure security of supply. At the same time, scarcity pricing without price caps on the wholesale market should not jeopardize the possibility for reliable and ststable and affordable prices for final customers, in particular households and SMEs.

Article 2 – paragraph 2 – point v
Article 2 – paragraph 2 – point v
(v) 'strategic reserve' means a capacity mechanism in which resources are held outside the market, remain outside the market, and are only dispatched in case day-ahead andor intraday markets have failed to clear, transmission system operators have exhausted their balancing resources to establish an equilibrium between demand and supply, and imbalances in the market during periods where the reserves were dispatched are settled at the value of lost load;

Article 11 – paragraph 5 a (new)
Article 11 – paragraph 5 a (new)

Amendment 236 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 16 – paragraph 1
Article 16 – paragraph 1
1. Charges applied by network operators for access to networks , including charges for connection to the networks, charges for use of networks, and, where applicable, charges for related network reinforcements, shall be transparent, take into account the need for network security and flexibility and reflect actual costs incurred insofar as they correspond to those of an efficient and structurally comparable network operator and are applied in a non-discriminatory manner. In particular, they shall be applied in a way which does not discriminate between production connected at the distribution level and production connected at the transmission level, either positively or negatively. They shall not discriminate against energy storage and shall not create disincentives for participation in demand response or for self-generation. Without prejudice to paragraph 3, those charges shall not be distance- related.
Amendment 237 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 16 – paragraph 2
Article 16 – paragraph 2
2.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 18 – paragraph 3
Article 18 – paragraph 3
3. Member States shall publish a timeline for adopting measures to eliminate any identified regulatory distortions.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 18 – paragraph 3 a (new)
Article 18 – paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Member States shall assess whether a capacity mechanism in the form of strategic reserve can address the adequacy concerns. Where this is not the case, Member States may implement a different type of mechanism. Such mechanisms shall not create unnecessary market distortions or inhibit cross-border trade. They shall be open to all generation technologies, storage, energy efficiency and demand-side response. The amount of capacity committed in the mechanism shall not go beyond what is necessary to address the concern. The parameters determining the amount of capacity procured in the capacity mechanism shall be approved by the national regulatory authority.

A calculation is required for each bidding zone border.
