Fc is the factor of duration of the reservation of standard firm transmission capacity, that is defined by following formulas:

 

For standard annual firm capacity:
Fc = 1

 

For standard quarterly firm capacity:
Fc = D/PDr × 1.1

 

For standard monthly firm capacity:
Fc = D/PDr × 1.25,

 

where
D is the number of gas days of the capacity product duration 
PDr is the number of days of given calendar year

 

AP 

Auction premium in CZK per MWh per day attained in a transmission capacity auction

 

The starting price in auction for reserved daily and within-day transmission capacity is calculated using the following formula:

for standard daily firm capacity
Cvyd = 1 / PDr × 1.5 × Cr,,

 

and for standard intra-day firm capacity
Cvyvd = 1 / PDr × 1.7 × Cr,

 

where
PDr is the number of days of given calendar year

 

These prices are the starting point for transmission capacity auctions on the PRISMA and GSA auction platforms.
