9. Week-ahead to at least day-ahead regional system adequacy assessments and preparation of risk reducing actions
9.1
Regional coordination centres shall carry out week-ahead to at least day-ahead regional adequacy assessments in accordance with the procedures set out in Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 and on the basis of the methodology developed pursuant Article 8 of Regulation (EU) 2019/941.
9.2
Regional coordination centres shall base the short-term regional adequacy assessments on the information provided by the transmission system operators of system operation region with the aim of detecting situations where a lack of adequacy is expected in any of the control areas or at regional level. Regional coordination centres shall take into account possible cross-zonal exchanges and operational security limits in all relevant operational planning timeframes.
9.3
When performing a regional system adequacy assessment, each regional coordination centre shall coordinate with other regional coordination centres to:
(a) verify the underlying assumptions and forecasts;
(b) detect possible cross-regional lack of adequacy situations.
9.4
Each regional coordination centre shall deliver the results of the regional system adequacy assessments together with the actions it proposes to reduce risks of lack of adequacy to the transmission system operators in the system operation region and to other regional coordination centres.
10. Regional outage planning coordination
10.1
Each Regional coordination centre shall carry out regional outage coordination in accordance with the procedures set out in the system operation guideline adopted on the basis of Article 18(5) of Regulation (EC) No 714/2009 in order to monitor the availability status of the relevant assets and coordinate their availability plans to ensure the operational security of the transmission system, while maximising the capacity of the interconnectors and the transmission systems affecting cross-zonal flows.
10.2
Each Regional coordination centre shall maintain a single list of relevant grid elements, power generating modules and demand facilities of the system operation region and make it available on the ENTSO for Electricity operational planning data environment.
10.3
Each Regional coordination centre shall carry out the following activities related to outage coordination in the system operation region:
(a) assess outage planning compatibility using all transmission system operators' year-ahead availability plans;
(b) provide the transmission system operators in the system operation region with a list of detected planning incompatibilities and the solutions it proposes to solve the incompatibilities.
11. Optimisation of inter-transmission system operator compensation mechanisms
11.1
The transmission system operators in the system operation region may jointly decide to receive support from the regional coordination centre in administering the financial flows related to settlements between transmission system operators involving more than two transmission system operators, such as redispatching costs, congestion income, unintentional deviations or reserve procurement costs.
12. Training and certification of staff working for regional coordination centres
