About CCR CE (Central Europe)
The energy transition towards a carbon free electricity supply is a European challenge that requires the use of the European electricity system to the full extend. Weather-dependent supply and increasing demand response will lead to a different and more intense use of the grid. Within the Central Europe (CE) CCR, parties involved are aiming to create operational preconditions to optimise the use of the system from a regional perspective and make the single European market a reality.
The CE CCR consists of the bidding zone borders between the following EU Member States’ plus Switzerland bidding zones: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Poland, Republic of Ireland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.
