ANNEX VI Limits and requirements for the exchange of FCR referred to in Article 163: Table Limits and requirements for the exchange of FCR Synchronous area Exchange of FCR allowed between: Limits for the exchange of FCR CE synchronous area TSOs of adjacent LFC blocks — the TSOs of an LFC block shall ensure that at least 30 % of their total combined initial FCR obligations, is physically provided inside their LFC block; and — the amount of reserve capacity on FCR, physically located in an LFC block as a result of the exchange of FCR with other LFC blocks, shall be limited to the maximum of: — 30 % of the total combined initial FCR obligations of the TSOs of the LFC block to which the reserve capacity on FCR is physically connected; and — 100 MW of reserve capacity on FCR. TSOs of the LFC areas of the same LFC block — the TSOs of the LFC areas constituting a LFC block shall have the right to specify in the LFC block operational agreement internal limits for the exchange of FCR between the LFC areas of the same LFC block in order to: — avoid internal congestions in case of the activation of FCR; — ensure an even distribution of reserve capacity on FCR for the case of network splitting; and — avoid that the stability of the FCP or the operational security is affected. Other synchronous areas TSOs of the synchronous area — The TSOs of the synchronous area shall have the right to specify in the synchronous area operational agreement limits for the exchange of FCR in order to: — avoid internal congestions in case of the activation of FCR; — ensure an even distribution of FCR in case of network splitting; and — avoid that the stability of the FCP or the operational security is affected.
