Article 4U.K.
1.The derogations provided for in this Decision shall no longer apply to small and micro isolated systems once they are interconnected with the interconnected system.
2.The Greek authorities:
(a)when authorising or tendering for new capacity within a given NII isolated system, shall systematically consider the alternative of interconnecting the isolated system of which the given NII is part. An authorisation for new capacity shall be refused if constructing an interconnector is more cost effective. Costs shall comprise all costs to supply electricity to end-customers within the isolated system, including NII PSO compensation;
(b)shall ensure that the cost-benefit study for important transmission works by ADMIE as provided for in Article 108 of Law 4001/2011 shall only consider efficient costs of investing and operating the projected interconnection. It shall not consider revenues lost by or depreciation in value of the conventional generation assets already installed on the NIIs;
(c)shall publish, in conjunction with ADMIE's ten-year investment plan as provided for in Article 108 of Law 4001/2011, the overall costs, including the NII PSO compensation, of supplying electricity customers in each of the NII isolated systems. Unless the construction of an interconnector is integrated in ADMIE's ten-year investment plan as provided for in Article 108 of Law 4001/2011 as approved by RAE, the Greek Authorities shall, upon their own initiative or upon simple request by a third party, organise a tender as provided for in Article 22(7)(b) of Directive 2009/72/EC for the construction of an interconnector connecting one or several NII isolated systems. An interconnector shall be constructed if its construction lowers the overall costs, including the NII PSO compensation, of supplying electricity to customers located on the NIIs;
(d)shall set a clear deadline for the completion of the construction of an interconnector. If the interconnector is not constructed or is not constructed within the set time frame, the Greek Authorities shall seek damages for the non-realised costs savings.
