Procurement of ancillary services<\/h2>\n

Client: BMWi
\nNeon team: Lion Hirth
\nProject partners: EF.Ruhr, EWL, BBH
\nPublished: 2021<\/p>\n

EU law requires market-based procurement of non-frequency ancillary services unless its economic efficiency can be ruled out. For the economics ministry, Neon assessed market-based procurement of services such as inertia, black start capability, and voltage support, teaming up with EF.Ruhr, EWL, and BBH as work package leader. Using a welfare-economic framework covering transaction costs, incentives, and system security, the study identifies the services for which markets are efficient and develops a three-pillar procurement concept for reactive power, giving grid operators freedom to combine regulated and competitive sourcing. This report was originally published in German.
