Article 44 of Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1222 of 24 July 2015 establishing a guideline on capacity allocation and congestion management (the CACM Regulation) requires that by 16 months after the entry into force of the Regulation, that each TSO, in coordination with all the other TSOs in the capacity calculation region, shall develop a proposal for robust and timely fallback procedures to ensure efficient, transparent and non-discriminatory capacity allocation in the event that the single day-ahead coupling process is unable to produce results.
On 14 December 2016, the Utility Regulator received a proposal for the establishment of Fallback procedures from the Northern Ireland TSO, SONI Limited.
The Utility Regulator is today, 30 June 2017, publishing its decision to approve the proposal for the establishment of Fallback procedures, pursuant to Article 9(6) and Article 9(10) of the CACM Regulation. Also published are:
