Topic 
The introduction of market coupling in the European Electricity market has significantly reduced price differences between the price zones, indicating that this measure has positively contributed to the integration of national markets into regional markets. The next step is to further optimize the use of available transmission capacities by using a flow based capacity calculation method for the whole region. As a result, it is expected that the trade opportunities will increase, fostering the integration of markets. In this workshop, experts will discuss the topic from different perspectives .
