In this keynote address delivered by Miroslav Vrba, Member of the Board at ČEPS, important insights are shared on the current challenges facing the Czech electricity transmission network, including the integration of renewable energy sources like wind and photovoltaics. The discussion outlines the history of ČEPS's unbundling, its role in ensuring real-time balance between electricity supply and demand, and the future direction toward adopting the ENTSO-E CIM model for improved interoperability. This presentation emphasizes the need for a robust and flexible grid to accommodate evolving energy trends.

CIM Users Group Spring MeetingKey Note Address • Miroslav Vrba • Member of the Board • Grid Operations Control & ICT • CIMugGeneral Meeting • Wednesday, May 11, 2011
Agenda • What is ČEPS ? • Our main challenges • Wind electricity from the North • Photovoltaic boom in the Czech Rep. • Upgrade of existing grid • Common Exchange Language Puzzle
ČEPS Profile • State owned joint-stock company • Ownership unbundling in compliance with 3th EU package • Operation, maintenance and development of the 400 kV and 220 kV grid on the territory of the Czech Republic • Control the balance between electricity generation and demand in real time • Parallel operation with the power systems of neighbouringcountries via cross-border tie-lines according to binding ENTSO-E rules
History of ČEPS unbundling • Mid nineties –an organizational unit of ČEZ accounting and managerial unbundling • 1999 – daughter company owned by ČEZ legal unbundling • 2003 – stock swap between ČEZ and the state ownership unbundling
Load profile in the day of historical maximum – January 2006
Main factors influencing thetransmission grid development duringthe years 2010- 2020 • Construction of the new power plants • Consumption growth especially in the north–east part of the country • Construction of the new wind farms in many places of the Czech Republic

The ICCP format (TASE2) seems to be sufficient for on-line exchanges today • A progressive common platform for off-line data exchanges is missing • The current „UCTE“ format can not support all TSO requirements, i.e.: • Every-day exchanges • Special and specific, not frequently used exchanges • Enhancement possibilities
The CIM/XML format as the Unified Model Language seems to be the perspective option • The ENTSO-E CIM Model Exchange Profile can enable us to communicate with our SW applications, systems, equipment • We have three options: • to continue on „UCTE“ trial – not sustainable • abandon our ambitions of unity • to embrace the new ENTSO-E CIM language, nor quick either easy solution
Let this conference contribute to solving this puzzle
