Universidad Pontificia Comillas – CoordiNet: Large scale campaigns to demonstrate how TSO-DSO shall act in a coordinated manner to procure grid services in the most reliable and efficient way  

CoordiNet aims to demonstrate how DSOs (Distribution System Operators) and TSOs (Transmission System Operators) shall act in a coordinated manner to procure grid services in the most reliable and efficient way through the implementation of three large scale “TSO-DSO-Consumer” demonstrations, in cooperation with market participants and end users.  

Three complete value chains of TSO-DSO-market participants constitute the backbone of the project in three demonstration macro-areas (Spain, Sweden, Greece) with ten demonstration pilots (four in Spain, four in Sweden and two in Greece). The extent of demonstrations provides high level of added value to extrapolate features of TSO-DSO-market collaboration on a European wide-area through the set of standardised products that will be defined and field-tested and the building blocks for a future European platform that will contribute to opening new revenue streams for consumers providing grid services.  

The project will provide a pathway towards a seamless pan-European electricity market with non-discriminatory access to all market participants 

Top three learnings: 

  1. I will demonstrate how DSOs and TSOs shall act coordinated to procure reliable and efficient grid services 
  2. I will provide a pathway towards a seamless pan-European electricity market with non-discriminatory access. 
  3. I will define the building blocks for a future European platform
