The project was successfully completed on the 21st of June 2016, when we started the project with the operational implementation. As a pilot project on an European scale, this project serves as a model project for the allocation of Intraday cross-border transmission capacity at European borders with positive results.

Bilateral project of Intraday Market Coupling on the Slovenian-Italian border

In June 2016, BSP in the cooperation with Deutsche Boerse, managed to upgrade the Intraday continuous trading application M7 to a new version. The upgrade has improved access to the trading application for market participants and its consistency with the versions that are in use in the neighboring markets. These improvements also contribute to growth in the volume of trading in this segment. Compared with 2015, the trading volume on the Intraday and Balancing market in 2016 increased by 134 percent.

Intraday tradingon BSP

In the segment of Intraday trading, after the model of Price Coupling of Regions, a project of Cross-Border Intraday Market Coupling (Cross Border Intraday - XBID) came to life. The founding members of the XBID project (exchanges APX, Belpex, EPEX, NPS and OMIE and 16 System Operators), joined the rest of the European Designated Operators joining electricity markets (NEMO) and System Operators in February 2016.

Cross Border IntraDay Market Coupling - XBID

In November 2016, System Operator ELES in cooperation with BSP, organized an auction for the purchase of energy to cover losses in the transmission network in 2017, 2018 and 2019. The auction was held between 8 am and 10 am on the Euromarket trading application, which provides automated trading system for all participants and providing market participants functionalities that are also used for Day-ahead trading. At the auction there were following marginal prices achieved: for delivery in 2017 38,39 €/MWh, for delivery in 2018 36,73 €/MWh and for delivery in 2019 36,73 €/MWh.
