Integrating Market Coupling in the Nordic and Continental Regions: The NorNed Cable Project
This document outlines the progress of multilateral market coupling (MMC) initiatives, specifically focusing on the NorNed cable interconnector between Norway and the Netherlands. With a capacity of 700MW, the NorNed cable has been operational since late 2007, allowing market coupling between the Nordic region and continental Europe. The recent meetings and agreements among various stakeholders, including Statnett, TenneT, APX, and Nord Pool Spot, highlight the ongoing efforts to enhance market integration and explore trilateral market coupling (TLC) solutions for efficient energy trading.
