ENTSO-E shall adopt the Union-wide 10-year network development plan (“TYNDP”) every two years pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on the internal market for electricity. The TYNDP is a biennial plan, built upon national and regional development plans, on the needs and planned developments on a pan-European scale. It assesses needs for the transmission system within Europe and planned development projects submitted by project promoters to address these needs.
ENTSO-E invites all projects which are relevant from a European perspective to apply to the TYNDP. ENTSOE also invites project promoters to refer to the list of projects with pan-European relevance listed in ACER Opinion 04/2023. ENTSO-E will ask Project Promoters for justification in case projects previously part of TYNDP 2022 are not submitted to TYNDP 2024.
TYNDP 2024 administrative criteria for transmission projects now includes an eligibility requirement for promoters to have a letter of support from at least one of the competent ministries or regulatory authorities.
Further information on the TYNDP is available on the ENTSO-E website.
As set out in the National Policy Statement on Electricity Interconnection 2023, Ireland is in the process of developing an offshore transmissions strategy (OTS) that is intended to map out future transmission requirements and supporting procedures and processes with publication anticipated in Q1 2024. This presents an obvious challenge in determining support for any given proposed project in advance of this detailed forward planning.
As an interim measure and pending development of the OTS, Ireland will consider requests from project promoters for a letter of support in the TYNDP 2024 on a provisional and conditional basis.
There is no obligation on a member state to provide a letter of support. It is intended that this procedure will be superseded by processes developed under the offshore transmission strategy.
Please complete the questionnaire and return to: emmet.deegan@decc.gov.ie
The Department will endeavour to expedite review and consideration of requests and issue a response prior to the opening of the TYNDP application window.
