EKC assists the participating companies Azerenerji, GSE and TEIAS to develop a Business Process Manual (BPM) to define a harmonized approach to calculating and allocating NTC based upon the methods used by ENTSO-E.

The BPM and the initial calculations prepared by the three TSOs will be completed in time for the expected June 2013 commissioning of the HVDC back-to-back station being constructed to connect the Akhaltsikhe substation in Georgia to the Borcka substation in Turkey.

Type of services provided:

  • Checking, verifying and merging load flow and dynamic models
  • Simulation of NTC calculation
  • Simulation of NTC allocation
  • Developing Business Process Manual for NTC-related processes among the three TSOs
