Who will be responsible for transfer errors?
Unlike a generator, who controls the output of their plant, the interconnector is controlled by the two system operators. The system operators will manage the flows over the interconnector to reflect the notified positions of Users. Any transfer errors (the difference between the level of flows requested by Users and the actual level of flows) will be charged to the Interconnector Error Administrator rather than to Users. National Grid and RTE are jointly undertaking the Interconnector Error Administrator role and funding it from revenues from the interconnector.
