Review of Transmission Planning Access Requirements

The TB presents and analyzes different aspects of access and connection procedures, based on contributions from 8 systems in 3 continents (Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Republic of Ireland, Great Britain, Brazil and Australia), which are reproduced in detail in the TB. Existing mechanisms are potentially needed for the adequate coordination between “electric” procedures (access and onnection, and grid planning) and the administrative autorisation processes (for generation plants and the associated transmission grid). These are reported and discussed.
