Shaping Our Electricity Future

EirGrid and SONI held a webinar on May 6th to provide information to industry on the Non-reserve Services Consultation. The session provided an overview of the proposals for the design and procurement of Non-reserve Services included in the consultation paper and an opportunity for Q&A. In addition, the TSOs’ external partners, DotEcon, presented a walkthrough of the independent economic analysis which has informed these proposals.

This report, prepared by the TSOs’ partner DotEcon, sets out a technical and economic analysis of the procurement of Non-reserve Services. This report should be read in conjunction with the TSOs' Non-reserves Consultation Paper.
