Hosting capacity assessment

Capacity type considered for hosting capacity information

Firm and flexible

Description of the methodology that leads to firm capacity results

Maximum output power in MW where there's still fullfilled security criteria.

Description of the methodology that leads to flexible capacity results

Maximum (load / gen) power in MW where there's still fullfilled security criteria.

Description for the criteria and methodologies used that lead to the published information

Hosting capacity for RES in MW. We publish information about possible areas/connection points where we think the investors in RES will have less problems to acquire building permit. Additionally, this is upgraded with the info where we expect as little to none grid reinforcement needed for connection. This is included for all voltage levels.

Main assumptions/disclaimers behind calculations

These public information are only guidleines or recomendations for the investors so they can see where to expect to have least problems with spatial planning

Additional information for connection request and hosting capacity information

Connection request procedure

The client initiates the connection process by submitting a Connection Request to ELES (https://pisrs.si/pregledPredpisa?id=NAVO1112) - info@eles.si

Options available for the investors if the map shows 'no capacity available' in their interested area

The provided information gives insights where it is easier and quicker to install new generation or flexibility. However, if the value is 0 MW, this doesn't mean that the investor can't build there, rather they will have to invest in the reinforcement of the grid. The map is a guideline for investors to choose locations which already offer high capacities without costly investment into the grid.
