The Research Center for Energy Networks (FEN) of ETH Zurich is part of a consortium led by external pageSwiss Economicscall_made that conducts a reference network analysis (RNA) of the German transmission system operators (TSOs) for the German Federal Network Agency in the fourth regulatory period. In this process, an optimization procedure determines a cost-efficient and technically secure network, which forms the basis for the TSOs' efficiency assessment. FEN is responsible for the technical part of the data collection and the RNA.
