Core CCR 4th Amendment Fallback Consultation Confirmed, No New Developments

The primary source reiterates the previously reported consultation on the Core CCR TSOs' and iTCP's proposal for the 4th amendment to Core CCR fallback procedures and the amended Regional Specific Annex 6 extending the Shadow Allocation Rules to the SEM-FR (Ireland-France) border. The consultation opening (12 Oct 2026) and closing (12 Nov 2026) dates, scope, and list of participating TSOs match the prior recorded state exactly; no new milestones, design changes or regulatory actions are disclosed.

Confirmation of the unchanged consultation timeline and scope means the Core CCR fallback amendment and SEM-FR Shadow Allocation integration remain on the originally announced track, with no acceleration, delay or substantive scope revision. Stakeholders should continue preparing input ahead of the 12 November 2026 deadline, as the structural extension of fallback procedures to the SEM-FR border still awaits stakeholder, NRA and NEMO feedback before any decision.

This appears to be a duplicate or re-indexed capture of the same ENTSO-E consultation page already reflected in the prior event record, rather than a substantive update. Analysts should treat this as a confirmation data point rather than a new development; the underlying design question—how NRAs will treat the fallback trigger and shadow pricing methodology for the newly added SEM-FR border—remains open and unresolved pending the consultation's close.
