Hosting capacity assessment
| Capacity type considered for hosting capacity information | Firm and flexible |
| Description of the methodology that leads to firm capacity results | Firm connection capacity: Available capacity for new production units in each node of the TSO and DSO grid, determined in cooperation with DSOs. The values are indicative, and a specific assessment is carried out for each project that applies for grid connection. |
| Description of the methodology that leads to flexible capacity results | Flexible connection capacity: The map includes what share of a new production unit of 100 MW and 300 MW, respectively, can be integrated into each node of the TSO grid. This is determined for solar and wind separately. There is also a simpler data point for the same at the DSO level. |
| Main assumptions/disclaimers behind calculations | The website explicitly says that the data is not legally binding. The data is based on reported projects. |
| Additional information | 1) The map includes what share of a new production unit of 100 MW and 300 MW, respectively, can be integrated into each node of the TSO grid. This is determined for solar and wind separately. There is also a simpler data point for the same at the DSO level. 2) All projects in the pipeline from third parties that have been registered are included in the calculations. 3) The reported projects from the DSO level are included in the calculations. |
Additional information for connection request and hosting capacity information
| Connection request procedure | Not published |
| Connection request rules | First-come-first-serve |
| Information published for volumes of connection requests/waiting lines | No |
| Granularity of published connection requests/waiting lines | NA |
| Additional information | First, they must contact the relevant DSO. If the project is too big for the DSO level, then it is relevant to contact netkundecenteret in Energinet. |
