ENTSOG Annual Report 2014

MONITORING THE CAPACITY ALLOCATION MECHANISMS NETWORK CODE (CAM NC) CAM NC was developed by ENTSOG and is based on the Framework Guidelines given in the Capacity Allocation Mechanisms from ACER 2011–2012. CAM NC was approved by the EU Gas Commit- tee on 14 October 2013 as Commission Regula- tion (EU) No 984/2013. The implementation date of CAM NC is 1 No- vember 2015 with the exception of Article 6, which is to be implemented by 4 February 2015.

efficient network operation. To achieve this objective, adjacent TSOs shall develop a joint mechanism that describes the specific actions to be taken. Priority shall be given to IPs where contractual congestions can be identified. According to Article 19 of CAM NC, TSOs shall primarily offer bundled capacity products to the market. This obligation enters into force on 1 November, 2015. The commitments for TSOs resulting from Article 6 can be seen as prepara- tory tasks in order to achieve the highest bun- dling of capacity possible. Pursuant to Article 8 (8) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2009, ENTSOG monitors the implementa- tion of CAM NC. ENTSOG launched the monitor- ing process in December 2014 to ensure timely publication of results in Annual Report 2014.

Monitoring Article 6 of CAM NC

The aggregated results are shown below.

The aim of Article 6 is to increase the amount of bundled capacity made available to network us- ers at interconnection points (IPs). This is achieved by maximising the technical capacity while accounting for system integrity, safety and
