Florence mini-fora 17 December 2004 - 15 February 2005

Congestion management was the topic in a round of Florence mini-forum meetings held between December 2004 and February 2005. The meetings were organised by the European Energy Regulators and the European Commission. Participants in these mini-fora were regulators, transmission system operators, power exchanges and the European Commission.

The Florence mini-fora were set up by the 11th Florence forum meeting. The mini-fora addressed congestion management in the European electricity transmission network on a regional basis. The mini-fora aimed to provide a plan and detailed timetable for the introduction of at least day-ahead co-ordinated market based mechanisms, such as auctions.
