Synergies among electricity, gas and district heating in high RES worlds

The Electricity Balancing Guideline (EBGL), in force since 2017, sets out the framework for a European balancing market allowing TSOs to net their balancing needs and to procure balancing energy from providers located both within their own area and across borders. This cooperation mechanism increases the overall security of supply while lowering system-wide balancing costs.

Hydropower plays a strategic role in the energy transition thanks to its unique ability to provide flexibility, storage, and dispatchability to the electricity system. However, managing hydropower systems is becoming increasingly complex: hydrological uncertainty linked to climate change, market volatility, evolving grid needs, and aging assets all call for a rethink of decision-making methods.
