Hosting capacity assessment

Capacity type considered for available hosting capacity information (e.g., Firm and/or Flexible) Firm
Description of what firm capacity means Available connection power for generation or consumption, as at the time of preparation, according to accepted data.
Description of the aspects/methodology that leads to firm capacity results According to the power reserve criterion in the HV/MV node included in the criteria for assessing the connection of energy sources to the ENEA Operator MV power grid (engineering calculations for the MV network model – HV/MV nodes) (https://www.operator.enea.pl/przylaczenie-do-sieci/informacje-o-przylaczeniach).
Description of what flexible capacity means (if applicable) Not Applicable
Description for the criteria and methodologies used that lead to the published information In order to determine the available connection capacity, the technical parameters of the grid and changes to these parameters as a result of planned investments, the load on HV/MV nodes, and planned consumers are taken into account and compared with the capacity of connected energy sources and those planned for connection (to ensure the operational safety of the grid).
Main assumptions/disclaimers behind calculations Taking into account power demand, power from connected sources, and sources planned for connection, as well as the technical parameters of the network and changes to these parameters as a result of planned investments
