Svk BSP BRP Villkor Status (2026)

“Status för hantering av BSP/BRP-villkoren” — Svk news article published 2026-05-18. Status update on revised BRP/BSP conditions for the Nordic connection to MARI and PICASSO.

Summary

Svk presented a proposal for revised BRP/BSP conditions in spring 2026; market participants submitted consultation responses. The changes are required before Nordic connection to the European mFRR energy exchange platform MARI, planned for Q1 2027. After reviewing consultation responses, Svk determined additional analysis time is needed and will submit revised conditions to Ei (Energimarknadsinspektionen) during summer 2026; Ei will then adjudicate the proposal.

Three areas of change:

• Obalansprissättning (imbalance pricing) — named as an affected area; the article gives no detail
• Regler för budgivning (bidding rules) — named as an affected area; the article gives no detail
• Prissättning av balansenergipris (balancing energy price settings) — named as an affected area; the article gives no detail

Svk will continue dialogue with market participants, and is also working on developing MARI itself so that improvements made in the Nordic mFRR EAM solution are retained.

PICASSO — parallel process

In connection with the planned PICASSO connection (aFRR energy exchange platform), further imbalance pricing changes will follow. Svk plans to publish a new consultation on PICASSO-related imbalance pricing changes in autumn 2026. The article does not describe what the PICASSO-related changes will contain.

Reference group on imbalance pricing

Svk is announcing a referensgrupp (reference group) on imbalance pricing, for continuous dialogue and structured exchange of experience; interest in participating can be registered via a linked Svk article.
