Workshop

Understanding Projects of Common Interest Concrete examples on how to implement the TEN-E Regulation

Workshop

Topic

Energy system planning & implementation
Calendar 22 October 2013
Clock 09:15 – 17:00 (CET)
Location Brussels, Belgium

Organised by RGI, in cooperation with ENTSO-E and the European Commission

The “Guidelines for Trans-European Energy Infrastructure”, that came into force in May this year, are a great opportunity for further improved transparency and participation in the electricity grid planning processes.

Successful implementation of the new legislation will require all actors to: fully understand the PCI processes and their interactions; develop their own role and relationships with other stakeholders; and engage in and contribute to these processes in the best possible way.

The adoption of the first list of PCIs by the European Commission creates a momentum for stronger cross-sector collaboration and for a shared interpretation of what the European “common interest” in the Guidelines means for TSOs, stakeholders, customers and citizens. We seized this opportunity to discuss different aspects of the legislation and its implementation with concrete examples.
