Calculation of clearing price at interconnection points
The clearing price for a given standard capacity product at an interconnection point shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:
P cl = P R,au + AP
Where:
P cl is the clearing price;
P R,au is the applicable reserve price for a standard capacity product which is published at the time when this product is auctioned;
AP is the auction premium, if any.
Calculation of payable price at interconnection points
The payable price for a given standard capacity product at an interconnection point shall be calculated in accordance with either of the following formulas:
(a)
where the floating payable price approach is applied:
P flo = P R,flo + AP
Where:
P flo is the floating payable price;
P R,flo is the reserve price for a standard capacity product applicable at the time when this product may be used;
AP is the auction premium, if any.
(b)
where the fixed payable price approach is applied:
P fix = (P R,y × IND) + RP + AP
Where:
P fix is the fixed payable price;
P R,y is the applicable reserve price for a yearly standard capacity product which is published at the time when this product is auctioned;
IND is the ratio between the chosen index at the time of use and the same index at the time the product was auctioned;
RP is the risk premium reflecting the benefits of certainty regarding the level of transmission tariff, where such premium shall be no less than 0;
AP is the auction premium, if any.
