Asymmetrisk tvåsamhet - i relation följs vi åt
”Ihålig stolpkonstruktion som skall mjuka upp den starka strömmens hårdhet och förena den med moder jords mjuka former. En fröjd för fru älg och alla vi andra som njuter av naturen. Slingrande som en fjällbäck, fast rätt upp i himlen! Två vänners sköna skär på en snöig fjällsluttning…
I relation människa – natur”Artist Anna Cronheden

Aspects to be evaluated• Market functioning
– Bottlenecks and price differences– Market power (abuse of)
• Adequacy– Risk of energy shortage– Risk of power shortage
• Network losses• Investment alternatives
– Transmission– Generation

s Nordel Summing Up• We have a well functioning Nordic market • Nordic TSO´s have gone from coordinated to common
planning • The Big Five are a result of this• Financing: Agreement that
– the distribution of costs between the countries was acceptable
– the congestion rent in the Nordel system should be divided in pro rata relation to investment costs
• This has been achieved by the TSO’s alone. No pressure or interference from regulators or other authorities
• Next System Development Planwill give a basis for the next step to future investments
