Germany underlines that only 4 out of 22 respondents reject the implementation of the Capacity Reserve, 2 of which actually make the case for a market-wide capacity mechanism instead.
Poudarila je, da trije sodelujoči, ki podpirajo čezmejno sodelovanje, niso predložili konkretnih predlogov o njegovi izvedbi v praksi.
Observations on eligibility (demand response and foreign capacity)
ZAVEZE NEMČIJE
Germany points out that remarks in this regard relate almost exclusively to demand response participation.
Nemčija je po nadaljnji preiskavi Komisije in pripombah, prejetih od zainteresiranih strani, izrazila pripravljenost, da spremeni nekatere točke pogojev, ki urejajo rezervno zmogljivost, in s tem odpravi preostale pomisleke.
Germany's reaction concerns the main issues or wishes signalled by the various demand response operators and aggregators.
Prvič, Nemčija se je zavezala, da bo pregledala pravila o povračilu spremenljivih stroškov.
In view of the fact that Germany has agreed to amend most of the contested terms and conditions for demand side participation, the issue will be addressed in detail in Section 6 on commitments made by Germany.
Ne bo jih več povrnila, zato se za imetnike zmogljivosti, ki bodo predložili ponudbo za sodelovanje v rezervni zmogljivosti, pričakuje, da bodo vključili svoje fiksne in spremenljive stroške.
Germany furthermore draws the conclusion from the responses received that a majority of respondents agree with Germany that the participation of foreign capacity is both practically difficult and has little added value in view of the objective pursued and the design of the Capacity Reserve.
To pomeni, da bo treba oceniti, kolikokrat se bo rezervna zmogljivost dispečirala.
Germany underlines that the three respondents that support cross-border participation do not provide concrete proposals on its practical implementation.
Drugič, glede prilagajanja odjema se je Nemčija zavezala, da bo spremenila shemo pomoči, kot sledi:
COMMITMENTS MADE BY GERMANY
lahko bodo sodelovale obremenitve, povezane v srednjenapetostna omrežja, s čimer se znatno poveča število morebitnih ponudnikov prilagajanja odjema;
Following the Commission's further investigation and the comments received from interested parties, Germany has expressed its willingness to amend the terms and conditions governing the Capacity Reserve on a number of points so as to address the remaining concerns.
dovoljeno bo združevanje obremenitev (tj. združevanje različnih obremenitev v en produkt prilagajanja odjema), kar omogoča boljšo in učinkovitejšo storitev prilagajanja odjema in močno olajša sodelovanje prilagajanja odjema;
First, Germany has committed to revise the rules on the remuneration of variable costs.
manjše obremenitve lahko posamično lažje sodelujejo zaradi zmanjšanja najmanjše velikosti z 10 MW na 5 MW;
Germany will no longer reimburse these costs, so that capacity holders submitting a bid to participate in the Capacity Reserve are expected to include both their fixed and variable costs.
obveznost glede nakupa vse energije dve leti vnaprej je bila skrajšana na šest mesecev, zaradi česar je udeležba za ponudnike prilagajanja odjema manj tvegana in cenejša;
The latter implies that an assessment will have to be made as to the number of times the Capacity Reserve will be dispatched.
število preskusov se je zmanjšalo z dvanajst na dva letno.
Second, with regard to demand response, Germany has committed to modify the aid scheme as follows:
Glede na to, da so preskusi za ponudnike prilagajanja odjema razmeroma dragi (visoki spremenljivi stroški pri posamezni aktivaciji), naj bi to ponudnikom prilagajanja odjema omogočilo, da na razpisu predložijo konkurenčnejše ponudbe ter s tem tudi povečajo konkurenčni pritisk na razpisu;
Loads connected to medium voltage grids will be allowed to participate, thus significantly extending the number of potential demand side response (‘DSR’) providers;
v rezervni zmogljivosti lahko sodelujejo le neprilagodljive obremenitve, kar se bo zagotovilo z zahtevo, da obremenitve v prekinljivi shemi iz odloka o pogodbeno odklopljivih bremenih ali na izravnalnem trgu niso sodelovale v zadnjih 36 mesecih, in
Aggregation of loads (that is to say, the combination of various loads into one demand response product) will be allowed, which allows a better and more efficient demand response service and thus greatly facilitates participation of demand response;
izvajalci prilagajanja odjema lahko sodelujejo omejeno obdobje, da bi bili spodbujeni h končni prodaji prilagodljivosti neposredno na trgu z električno energijo.
Smaller loads can participate individually more easily thanks to the reduction of the minimum size from 10 to 5 MW;
Tretjič, Nemčija se je zavezala, da bo pregledala metodologijo za izračun razumnega najslabšega možnega scenarija, da bo izražal stanje ocenjevanja zadostnosti proizvodnje.
The obligation to purchase all power two years ahead has been reduced to six months, making it less risky and therefore less expensive for DSR to participate;
Ta pregled bo vključeval izračun standarda zanesljivosti, ki upošteva širše družbene stroške in koristi dodatne stopnje zanesljivosti oskrbe.
Given that tests are relatively expensive for DSR (high variable costs per activation), this is expected to allow DSR to place more competitive bids in the auction, thereby also increasing competitive pressure in the auction;
Četrtič, Nemčija se je zavezala, da bo obseg rezerve omejila na največ 2 GW za tri obdobja dobave.
Participation in the Reserve is allowed for inflexible loads only, which will be ensured by requiring that the loads did not participate in the ABLAV interruptibility scheme or the balancing market for the last 36 months; and
Petič, Nemčija se je zavezala, da bo predpostavko iz razumnega najslabšega možnega scenarija, povezano z goljufijo pri izravnavi, zmanjšala z 2,5 GW na 1 GW.
Demand response operators can participate for a limited period to incentivise them to ultimately sell their flexibility in the electricity market directly.
Po njenem mnenju to izraža dejstvo, da so bile s Strommarktgesetz sprejete ureditve, s katerimi se bo goljufija popolnoma preprečila ali pa vsaj zmanjšala.
After the participation in the reserve (either for two years, or for four years with a cooling-off period of one year) they can participate in the market (but not in the ABLAV support interruptibility scheme).
Kljub temu je glede goljufije še vedno prisotna negotovost, zato je treba zaradi zanesljivosti oskrbe ohraniti ukrep za primer goljufije pri izravnavi.
Operators have to decide before they take part in the auction which of the two regimes (two years or four years with cooling-off period) they intend to follow.
Nemčija je poleg tega navedla, da bo zaradi števila obvestil o nameri glede prenehanja obratovanja, ki jih je nemški regulativni organ za energijo prejel od operaterjev konvencionalnih elektrarn, spremenila predpostavko iz razumnega najslabšega scenarija, povezano z razpoložljivostjo teh elektrarn.
Third, Germany committed to revise the methodology to calculate the reasonable worst case scenario to reflect the state of the art of assessing generation adequacy.
Predvideva, da se bo sedanja stopnja obveščanja o prenehanju obratovanja nadaljevala, kar pomeni dodatna 2 GW manj.
This revision will include the calculation of a reliability standard, which takes into account the broader societal costs and benefits of an additional degree of security of supply.
Te spremenjene predpostavke bodo del spremenjene presoje ustreznosti iz uvodne izjave 84.
Germany also committed to apply this revised methodology and the reliability standard to determine the necessity and the size of the Capacity Reserve for the first delivery period.
OCENA UKREPA
Fourth, Germany committed to limit the volume of the Reserve to a maximum of 2 GW for the three delivery periods.
Obstoj pomoči
Fifth, Germany committed to reduce the assumption of the reasonable worst case scenario that related to balancing fraud from 2,5 GW to 1 GW.
Kot je pojasnjeno v oddelku 3, je Komisija v sklepu o začetku postopka predhodno sklenila, da rezervna zmogljivost pomeni državno pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe.
According to Germany, this reflects the fact that arrangements have been made in the Strommarktgesetz to reduce, if not completely avoid, fraud.
Nemčija je trdila, da je treba plačila na podlagi rezervne zmogljivosti šteti za nadomestilo za storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, ki izpolnjuje vse pogoje iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark in zato ne pomeni državne pomoči, vendar je Komisija dvomila, da sta prvo in četrto merilo iz navedene sodbe izpolnjeni.
Nevertheless, fraud remains a residual uncertainty, so that for security of supply reasons balancing fraud must be maintained.
Komisija je glede prvega merila v sodbi iz zadeve Altmark v sklepu o začetku postopka izrazila pomisleke, povezane s skladnostjo sheme z Direktivo 2009/72/ES.
Germany furthermore indicates that it will amend the assumption of the reasonable worst case scenario related to the availability of conventional power plants in view of the number of notified intentions of closure by operators of these power plants to the Bundesnetzagentur.
V sklepu o začetku postopka je spomnila še, da so lahko storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena upravičene le, kadar se dokaže, da trg ni mogel zadostiti potrebam, in da se je zaradi odsotnosti pomembnih reform trga ravno to zgodilo v Nemčiji.
Germany assumes that the current rate of notified closures will continue, which translates into an additional 2 GW of closures.
Komisija je dvomila tudi, da je zaradi navedene domnevne diskriminacije izpolnjeno četrto merilo iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark.
Also these revised assumptions will form part of the revised adequacy assessment referred to in recital 84.
Opozarja, da so bili nekateri dvomi iz sklepa o začetku postopka odpravljeni, drugi pa so še vedno prisotni.
Existence of aid
S temi spremembami se bo odpravila diskriminacija med ponudniki prilagajanja odjema in drugimi ponudniki zmogljivosti.
As explained in Section 3, the Commission reached the preliminary conclusion in the Opening Decision that the Capacity Reserve constitutes State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Poleg tega se bo zaradi tega povečalo število morebitnih udeležencev ter s tem konkurenčni pritisk in sorazmerno nadomestilo na razpisu.
While Germany claimed that payments under the Capacity Reserve are to be regarded as a compensation for a SGEI that meets all the conditions set out in the Altmark judgment and therefore does not constitute State aid, the Commission expressed doubts that the first and the fourth Altmark criterion were met.
Drugič, Komisija meni, da je lahko izključitev tuje udeležbe upravičena, ker bo v izjemnih primerih, v katerih se aktivira rezervna zmogljivost, tuja zmogljivost že v celoti izkoriščena, kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 125.
With regard to the first Altmark criterion, the Opening Decision expressed concerns related to compliance of the scheme with Directive 2009/72/EC.
Tretjič, Komisija je seznanjena z izboljšavami presoje potrebnosti iz uvodnih izjav 84 in 85, ki jih je izvedla Nemčija in so ocenjene v oddelku 7.3.2.
In particular, the scheme might be discriminatory as it seemed to de facto exclude demand response operators and to de jure exclude foreign capacity providers from effectively participating in the Reserve.
Poudarja, da je presoja potrebnosti, ki zagotavlja realističen vpogled v verjetnost izjemnih dogodkov, pomembna zaradi omogočanja pravilne ocene obsega ukrepa.
The Opening Decision furthermore questioned whether the scheme was necessary for security of electricity supply in Germany and could therefore be justified in the light of the objective of ensuring security of supply.
Vendar Komisija še vedno dvomi, da se lahko ta ukrep šteje za storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
Finally, the Opening Decision recalled that SGEIs could only be justified where it has been demonstrated that the market was unable to deliver, and that in view of the absence of important market reforms in Germany the market was unable to deliver.
Opozarja, da je opredelitev za storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena mogoča le, če trg ne more zagotoviti potrebne stopnje zanesljivosti oskrbe.
The Commission furthermore doubted that the fourth Altmark criterion was met due to the abovementioned suspected discrimination.
Ne bi bilo ustrezno, da bi se kot storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena opredelila dejavnost, ki jo je mogoče zagotoviti v običajnih tržnih razmerah.
The Commission notes that whilst some of the doubts expressed in the Opening Decision have been alleviated, others remain.
Da bi se ocenilo, ali lahko trg zagotovi storitev, se upoštevajo tudi morebitne spremembe delovanja trga.
First, the Commission takes note of the improved eligibility requirements for demand response operators as presented and assessed in recital 83 and recitals 118 to 122.
Komisija opozarja, da Nemčija predvideva izvedbo več reform trga in infrastrukturnih projektov v prihodnjih letih, vendar je na trgu z električno energijo še naprej prisotno pomembno nedelovanje trga, ki ni bilo obravnavano.
These changes will remove the discrimination between DSR operators and other capacity providers.
Obstajajo na primer pomembna regionalna neravnovesja v ponudbi električne energije in povpraševanju po njej, ki jih povzročajo ozka grla v prenosnih omrežjih sever-jug ter različni trendi pri ponudbi in povpraševanju med severno in južno Nemčijo, kar je zlasti posledica nadaljnjega proizvodnje velikih količin električne energije iz vetrnih elektrarn v severni Nemčiji in odločitve o zaprtju jedrskih elektrarn, ki vpliva zlasti na južno Nemčijo.
Moreover, they will lead to an increased number of potential participants and therewith increase competitive pressure and a proportionate remuneration in the auction.
Regionalna neravnovesja zato še stopnjujejo težavo nemškega trga glede denarnega primanjkljaja, zlasti za zmogljivosti na področju električne energije v južni Nemčiji, kjer so cene običajno nižje, kot bi bile, če bi bilo regionalno pomanjkanje v celoti zajeto pri oblikovanju cen.
Second, the Commission considers that the exclusion of foreign participation can be justified because in the extreme situations in which the Capacity Reserve is triggered the import capacity will already be fully exhausted as explained in recital 125.
V južni Nemčiji zato obstaja tveganje, da se bo zmogljivost, ki bi lahko bila dobičkonosna v popolnoma delujočem trgu in bo morda potrebna po postopnem opuščanju jedrske energije, umaknila s trga.
Third, the Commission takes note of the improvements to the necessity assessment by Germany set out in recitals 84 and 85, which are assessed in Section 7.3.2.
To stanje prispeva k večjemu tveganju za zanesljivost oskrbe.
The Commission underlines that the importance of a necessity assessment that provides realistic insights into the likelihood of extreme events lies in its ability to properly size the intervention.
Poleg tega Komisija ugotavlja, da bi moralo običajno delovanje trga z električno energijo sprožiti potrebne naložbe za kritje povpraševanja.
However, the Commission continues to doubt whether the present measure can be considered a SGEI.
Nemčija sprejema ukrepe za izboljšanje delovanja trga, na primer z izboljšanjem cenovnih signalov, da bi bile naložbe v prilagodljive zmogljivosti donosnejše.
The Commission recalls that a SGEI cannot be defined unless the market is unable to deliver the required level of security of supply.
Komisija pozdravlja te ukrepe in meni, da bodo v prihodnosti verjetno spodbudili več naložb v zmogljivost.
It would not be appropriate to define as a SGEI an activity that can be provided under normal market conditions.
Hkrati bo potreben čas, da bodo imele te reforme oprijemljive učinke na trg, njihov natančen učinek na stanje glede zanesljivosti oskrbe v Nemčiji pa je težko predvideti.
In order to assess whether a service can be provided by the market, also possible changes to the market functioning are taken into account.
Vsekakor trg glede na današnje stanje ne more v celoti zagotoviti potrebne stopnje zanesljivosti oskrbe s sprožitvijo potrebnih naložb v prilagodljivo zmogljivost.
The Commission notes that while Germany envisages putting in place in the coming years a number of market reforms and infrastructure projects, the electricity market continues to display significant market failures that have not been addressed.
Komisija ponovno poudarja, da dokler se trgu v največjem možnem obsegu ne omogoči doseganje zaželenega cilja politike, tj. zanesljivosti oskrbe, storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena ne more biti upravičena.
There are, for example, important regional imbalances in the demand and supply of electricity caused by bottlenecks in the North-South transmission networks and by divergent supply and demand trends between Northern and Southern Germany due in particular to the continued development of large amounts of wind generation in Northern Germany and the decision to close the nuclear power plants having an effect in particular in Southern Germany.
Zato meni, da ukrep morda ne pomeni dejansko storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena in da zato ni mogoče izključiti, da daje prednost svojim upravičencem.
As a consequence, the regional imbalances exacerbate the ‘missing money’ problem of the German market in particular for electricity capacity based in Southern Germany where prices tend to be lower than in a situation where regional scarcity would be fully reflected in the price setting.
Komisija nasprotno v skladu s sklepom o začetku postopka ugotavlja, da se ukrep financira iz državnih sredstev in da ga je mogoče glede na zakonodajne določbe iz člena 13e energetskega zakona pripisati državi.
In Southern Germany, capacity that may be profitable in a fully functioning market and that may be needed after the nuclear phase-out therefore risks leaving the market.
Shemo je namreč razvila nemška država, ki z zakonom določa, da se lahko stroški sheme prenesejo na vse potrošnike z zvišanjem omrežnin.
This situation contributes to an increased security of supply risk.
Na podlagi sodbe v zadevi Vent de Colére so zato prisotna državna sredstva, shemo pa je mogoče pripisati državi.
Moreover, the Commission notes that it should be the normal functioning of the electricity market that triggers the necessary investments to cover demand.
To pomeni, da je država tista, ki operaterjem prenosnih sistemov z zakonom določa, da dodelijo in zberejo potrebna sredstva.
Germany is taking steps to improve market functioning for example by improving price signals to make investments in flexible capacity more profitable.
Ker se mehanizem financiranja in zakonodaja od sklepa o začetku postopka v zvezi s tem nista spremenila, Komisija potrjuje predhodno ugotovitev iz sklepa o začetku postopka, da se shema financira iz državnih sredstev in da jo je mogoče pripisati državi.
The Commission welcomes these measures and considers that they are likely to incentivise more investments in capacity in the future.
Komisija v skladu s sklepom o začetku postopka meni tudi, da bi lahko ukrep vplival na konkurenco in trgovino na trgu z električno energijo, saj je nemški trg z električno energijo odprt za konkurenco in povezan s sosednjimi trgi z električno energijo, kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 33.
At the same time, it will take time for these reforms to have tangible effects on the market and their precise impact on the security of supply situation in Germany is difficult to predict.
Ker ni mogoče izključiti, da shema dodeljuje prednost svojim upravičencem in da so izpolnjeni drugi pogoji za obstoj pomoči, Komisija ne more izključiti, da ta shema pomeni pomoč, in tako nadaljuje presojo njene združljivosti.
In any event, as the situation is today, the market is not fully enabled to provide the required level of security of supply by triggering the necessary investments in flexible capacity.
Zakonitost pomoči
The Commission reiterates that as long as the market has not been enabled to achieve, to the greatest possible degree, the desired policy objective, namely security of supply, a SGEI cannot be justified.
Nemčija je shemo pomoči priglasila Komisiji, vendar je še ni začela izvajati.
The Commission therefore considers the measure may not constitute a genuine SGEI and that it can therefore not be excluded that it confers an advantage on its beneficiaries.
Tako je izpolnila svoje obveznosti iz člena 108(3) Pogodbe.
The Commission concludes, in line with the Opening Decision, that the measure is financed through State resources and is imputable to the State given the legislative provisions laid down in Article 13e EnWG.
Komisija je v sklepu o začetku postopka predhodno menila, da je rezervna zmogljivost shema pomoči, ki naj bi zagotovila zadostnost proizvodnje in zanesljivost oskrbe z električno energijo ter zato spada na področje uporabe oddelka 3.9 smernic za obdobje 2014–2020, ki določa pogoje, pod katerimi se lahko pomoč za zadostnost proizvodnje šteje za združljivo z notranjim trgom na podlagi člena 107(3)(c) Pogodbe.
The scheme was developed by the German State which provides for by law that its costs can be passed on to all consumers through an increase of the network tariffs.
Ukrep za zadostnost proizvodnje je združljiv, če so izpolnjena naslednja merila za združljivost iz odstavka 27 smernic za obdobje 2014–2020:
On the basis of the Vent de Colère judgment, State resources are therefore present and the scheme is imputable to the State.
prispevek k natančno opredeljenemu cilju skupnega interesa (oddelek 7.3.1);
This implies that it is the State that mandates by law the TSOs to attribute and collect the required funds.
potreba po posredovanju države (oddelek 7.3.2);
Since the financing mechanism and the legislation have not undergone any changes in this respect since the Opening Decision, the Commission confirms the preliminary conclusion of the Opening Decision that the scheme is financed through State resources and that it is imputable to the State.
ustreznost (oddelek 7.3.3);
The Commission also considers, in line with the Opening Decision, that the measure is liable to affect competition and trade on the electricity market, because the German electricity market is open to competition and connected to neighbouring electricity markets, as explained in recital 33.
spodbujevalni učinek (oddelek 7.3.4);
As it cannot be excluded that the scheme confers an advantage on its beneficiaries and the other conditions for the existence of aid are fulfilled, the Commission cannot exclude that the present scheme constitutes aid and it proceeds with the assessment of its compatibility with the internal market.
sorazmernost (oddelek 7.3.5);
Lawfulness of the aid
izogibanje neupravičenim negativnim učinkom na konkurenco in trgovino (oddelek 7.3.6) in
Germany has notified the aid scheme to the Commission and has not yet implemented the scheme.
preglednost (oddelek 7.3.7).
Germany has thus fulfilled its obligations under Article 108(3) of the Treaty.
Prispevek k natančno opredeljenemu cilju skupnega interesa
The Commission took the preliminary view in the Opening Decision that the Capacity Reserve was an aid scheme aimed at ensuring generation adequacy and security of electricity supply and therefore fell within the scope of Section 3.9 EEAG, setting out the conditions under which aid for generation adequacy may be considered compatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty.
Komisija je v sklepu o začetku postopka predhodno ugotovila, da je cilj rezervne zmogljivosti odpraviti pomisleke glede zanesljivosti oskrbe z električno energijo.
A measure for generation adequacy is compatible if the following compatibility criteria listed in paragraph 27 EEAG are met:
Zainteresirane strani je pozvala, naj predložijo pripombe glede predhodne ugotovitve, ki je povezana z odstavkom 220 smernic za obdobje 2014–2020, in sicer, da je za rezervno zmogljivost malo verjetno, da bi ogrozila cilj postopne odprave okolju škodljivih subvencij in da bi bilo treba obravnavati predvsem alternativne načine doseganja zadostnosti proizvodnje, ki nimajo teh negativnih vplivov na okolje.
