Legend: New introduced by Elia in its proposal in 2018 New modified by SPF in new FGC Theme: Access to the Grid New Elia’s proposal (17/5/2018) • Split of ACH and BRP Roles New • Split up/clarification of • Procedure to become ACH (and sign an ACH contract) New • Procedure/conditions to request access to the grid and add an access point to an ACH contract • Description of elements included in ACH contract (including reference to Flexible Access) • Terminology alignment with tariffs: “Subscription” replaced by “Power Put At Disposal” • Deletion of “old” articles relative to free reactive cone and back -up connection New • Elia will propose a Drop-off Procedure* in ACH contract within 1 year after the EiF of the FGC New Modifications in published FGC • Addition of Drop-off procedure Related articles/sections: Part 5, Book 1 to 5 (art. 199  222) 8

Legend: New introduced by Elia in its proposal in 2018 modified by SPF in new FGC Theme: Balancing responsibilities Elia’s proposal (17/5/2018) • Split of roles: BRP / CIPU owner / BSP • No content change in BRP responsibilities but some aspects have been clarified / aligned to practice: • Description of BRP responsibility : BRP foresees and puts in place all reasonable means to be balanced DELETED + reactive balancing + precisions for offshore New • TSO activates Balancing means according to a merit order fixed in Balancing Rules New Art 199 New • New TSO submits Balancing Rules to CREG after public consultation New Art 200 • Overview of all BRP tasks/responsibilities (available 24h; signing CIPU* …) New Art 201 • Possibility for pooling between 2 BRPs DELETED • + subject to T&C BRP Grid losses are compensated by BRPs New New Art 202-203 • Possible schemes with multiple BRPs exhaustively described per access point (NIER/NOER, GIER/GOER…) New Art 204-205 Details DELETED • BRP Designation by ACH (+ duration, procedure in case there is no BRP (BRP  ACH  GU) …) New Art 206-209 New • How nominations are made & obligation to provide a balanced program in DA & possibility for TSO to reject/suspend nominations … New Art 210-213 DELETED • Procedure to become BRP (Registry of BRPs, T&C BRP + BRP Contract conditions, timings, documents and guarantees to provide …) ( has been aligned with current practice) New New Art 214-222 Modifications in published FGC • Text has been cleaned up to avoid overlap for some obligations with content of T&C BRP which is under CREG’s competency according to EBGL  In practice, balancing responsibility and specifications on nominations have been deleted Related articles/sections: Part 5, Book 1 to 5 (art. 199  222)

Legend: New introduced by Elia in its proposal in 2018 New modified by SPF in new FGC Theme: Balancing Ancillary Services Elia’s proposal (17/5/2018) • Text was simplified and cleaned up compared to 2002 version of FGC, as most elements are fixed by the EBGL or SOGL • E.g.: EBGL states that the provision of balancing services follows market rules (tender…) • SOGL describes the characteristics of FCR, aFRR, mFRR …. • New structure: • Ancillary services split into: 1) Balancing A.S. (FCR, aFRR, mFRR ) 2) other A.S (Mvar, RSP, ) 3) eventual future SA developed in accordance with NCs/law DSP New Art 223 • TSO submits T&C BSP to CREG in accordance with EBGL (art. 4&6); BSP signs a BSP contract where he commits to respect T&Cs New Art 224-225 • Obligation to bid up/down available power for all PGMs & storage ≥ 25 MW New New Art 226 • Balancing Volume dimensioning New New Art 228-229 • FCR volume to be reserved is fixed at EU level • TSO submits to the CREG methodology to identify needs and “optimal needs  means” conform EBGL dispositions • If reservation period ≥ 1 year, results have to be submitted as well. Otherwise results have to be notified New • BSP obligation to bid at least the reserved volume: BSP puts everything in place to respect this obligation (e.g. via secondary market…) New Art 231 • If TSO anticipates an issue (e.g.: because BSPs didn’t respect their obligation), he launches fallback procedures (“in LFC BOA”) New New Art 232 Modifications in published FGC Related articles/sections: • More details regarding the elements that have to be submitted to the CREG for approval Part 5, Book 6; (art. 223  232) 10

Legend: New introduced by Elia in its proposal in 2018 New modified by SPF in new FGC Theme: Other Ancillary Services deleted by SPF in new FGC DELETED Elia’s proposal (17/5/2018) • Text was reviewed to be in line with SOGL and with future vision of Mvar, BS and Icaros • “Other AS” = Mvar, RSP, & Congestion Management DSP • New structure: 1. Mvar New Art 234 • TSO submits T&Cs VSP where to CREg where compensation modalities are based on financial guidelines of competent authority DELETED • Mandatory Participation of units capable to regulate Mvar ; voluntary for other assets if technically capable New • Modalities for participation for GUs in DSO/CDS grid and coordination with DSO/CDSO are defined in T&C VSP • Participation of those GUs is conditioned in any case to the agreement of DSO/CDSO and to the respect of their technical/operational motivated limitations New 2. RSP New Art 234-237 • TSO submits T&C RSP to the CREG for approval • No obligation to participate (open to TSO GUs but also GUs of DSO/CDS) New Art 237 • Restoration plan contains methodology to determine the Restoration services & volume of each that are needed, taking into account islanding and back-up generator resources New • Participation of those GUs is conditioned in any case to the agreement of DSO/CDSO and to the respect of their technical/operational motivated limitations New New Art 238 3. DSP (+/- idem RSP) 3. New Art 241 4. Congestion management: TSO submits congestion rules to the CREG in accordance with art. 23 §2 36 of E-law Details DELETED Modifications in published FGC • Mvar: the principle that financial principles are set by competent authority is deleted • RSP: the TSO will have to describe need, volume and choice of Restoration services in Restoration plan • Congestion management: content of congestion rules is deleted Related articles/sections: Part 6, Book 1; (art. 233  241) 11
