National Legislation
According to
Article 73 of the Law Regulating the Electricity Market of 2003 to 2012,
L.122(I)/2003, the Transmission System Operator prepared technical rules, which
define the operation of the Transmission System and specify the functional
processes and principles governing the relation between the Transmission System
Operator and all other Users of the Transmission System, i.e. the Producers,
the Suppliers, the Distribution System Operator (EAC) and the Customers
connected to the Transmission System.
The
Transmission and Distribution Rules are designed to achieve the development,
the maintenance and the operation of an efficient, coordinated and economically
viable Transmission System whilst facilitating competition in generation and
supply of electricity.
The Rules:
·
govern the technical requirements and constraints that will apply
wherever license holders wish to connect to the transmission system and/or
distribution system or use the transmission system or distribution system for
the transportation of electricity
·
ensure that the technical conditions that apply to license holders
who wish to connect to or use the transmission system or distribution system do
not result in them being subject to undue discrimination
·
foster efficiency, reliability, and economy in the use and
development of the transmission system and the distribution system
The final
document includes the Distribution Rules, which are prepared by the
Distribution System Operator. The Rules are applied after receiving the
approval of the Cyprus Energy Regulatory Authority (CERA).
