Since 29 September, Nord Pool, Fingrid, and Elering have been running a pilot for 30-minute Intraday Gate Closure Time in Finland and Estonia.
In order to gain more information and experience on this new trading timeline, the pilot will be extended to last until 31 March 2017.
Additionally, it is planned that Latvia will be included into the pilot in early-mid January 2017, pending technical implementation. There will be an Operational Message sent to confirm this, in due course.
After adding Latvia, the scope of the pilot will include trading in Finland, Estonia, and Latvia, and trading over the interconnections between Finland and Estonia and between Estonia and Latvia.
