On 3 March 2010, CEER launched a call for evidence on generation adequacy treatment in electricity (C09-ESS-05-03). The document set out CEER’s views on generation adequacy and how generation adequacy needs to be addressed throughout the European Internal Electricity Market (IEM).
The present evaluation of responses document (C11-ESS-24-03) addresses and evaluates the responses received to the CEER call for evidence.
This document seeks to follow-up the discussion initiated by European Energy Regulators with the ERGEG public consultation on the
"position paper on smart grids" in 2010. It examines the scope and definition of smart grids; regulatory challenges affecting smart grids, national roadmaps for their implementation; and recommendations regarding demonstration projects, cost benefit analyses and potential performance indicators and incentive schemes.
The main purpose of this report is to explore the renewable electricity support schemes currently in place in Member States across Europe. This is considered timely given the timing of implementation of Directives 2009/28/EC and 2009/29/EC included in the Climate and Energy Package, respectively for promoting renewable energy and for cutting carbon emissions through the EU Emission Trading Scheme by 2020.
