Monitoring of trade capacities at the French borders of the CORE/Western Europe region in 2020

**“Monitoring 70 % Clean Energy Package”****** The European Electricity Regulation, as part of the Clean Energy Package adopted in 2019, requires TSOs to be able to monitor the capacity of the network to be made available for cross-border trade by introducing an ambitious target of 70 %. According to the recommendation of ACER (Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators), this monitoring is carried out, in each step of time, at the grid of critical network elements that are provided to the various capacity calculations for border trade within the European Union. In this context, and pending such monitoring being carried out at the regional level of each capacity calculation region, RTE and CRE wish to make available to all, the monitoring data that are produced on the subject at the French level. This data will be shared on a semi-annual granularity. SWE, CWE and NIB are the 3 capacity calculation regions within the European Union in which RTE participates (SWE for the Spanish border; NIB for Border with Italy; CWE for the borders with Germany and Belgium). For the SWE (border with Spain) and NIB (border with Italy) zones, find the following datasets: _[Monitoring trading capabilities at the borders of the South-West Europe region in 2020 — Open Data Networks Energies (Odré) (reseaux-energies.fr)](https://opendata.reseaux-energies.fr/explore/dataset/monitoring-capacites-echanges-swe/information/)_ [Monitoring of trading capacities at the borders of the Northern Italy region in 2020 — Open Data Networks Energies (Odré) (reseaux-energies.fr)](https://opendata.reseaux-energies.fr/explore/dataset/monitoring-capacites-echanges-nib/information/) The description of the borders is attached. **“Monitoring Clean Energy Package 70 %”** **** The european electricity regulation introduces in 2019, a minimum threshold of 70 % of the capacity to be made available for cross-border trade. In the frame of this regulation, TSOs have to be able to monitor this network capacity. According to ACER (Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators) recommendation, this monitoring takes place, on each Timestamp, on the critical network element provided by TSOs to the capacity calculation project at European Union level. Within this framework, and until this monitoring will be carried out on the regional level, RTE and CRE would like to share, in Opendata, the dataset produced on the subject on French level. This dataset will be published on a half-year granularity.
