Regulated market where the issued securities are transacted: Bucharest Stock Exchange
In Q1 2022 Transelectrica registered decrease in activity profitability compared to Q1 2021, determined by higher electricity price procured on the DAM, which was four times higher than last year and led to higher expenses with RON 162 mn for one's technological consumption than the previous year (+173%).
Despite a difficult year 2021 and the difficulties encountered in Q1 2022, the Comapny management took a cautious approach, which led to positive result and compliance with all financial commitments.
Total operational revenues obtained in January-March 2022 registered 69% growth compared to the same period of last year (RON 1,231 mn in Q1 2022 against RON 726 mn in Q1 2021), mainly determined by higher average transmission tariff and an increase in the revenues achieved on the balancing market.
In Q1 2022 the electricity consumption within SEN registered decrease in all the three months. In the first place this was owed to higher prices of primary fuels, which was mirrored in the final electricity price while on the other hand average temperature values of January and February provided positive abnormal values above climatic norms.
Segment of profit allowed activities: The main area of basic business recorded ▲30% revenue increase, mainly determined by greater revenues from the transmission tariff approved by ANRE and by interconnection revenues.
Segment of zero profit activities: The main area of zero profit activities recorded revenue increase in Q1 2022 as well as of costs on the balancing market, twice higher than in Q1 2021. In accordance with ANRE regulations, non-null monthly balances (revenue surpluses) resulting from these activities will be compensated by ex-post (negative) tariff correction that ANRE applies into the tariff of years after that when such surplus was registered.

Between January and March 2022, the total amount of electricity charged for services provided on the electricity market (14.35 TWh) decreased by 4% compared to the same period of 2021 (the difference between the two periods being - 0.6 TWh).
Total operational revenues between January and March 2022 increased by 69% compared to the same period of the previous year (RON 1,231 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 726 mn in Q1 2021), mainly due to the increase in the average tariff amid the decrease in the amount of electricity delivered to consumers as well as the significant increase of revenues achieved on the balancing market.
The profit allowed activities segment registered an increase of 30% in revenues (RON 431 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 333 mn in Q1 2021), mainly determined by the increase of transmission revenues and other revenues on the energy market (RON 419 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 323 mn in Q1 2021). The increase in revenues is influenced by the increase in the average transmission tariff (for regulated transmission tariff revenues), but also by the evolution of interconnection revenues, mainly determined by the use of interconnection availabilities, by the increase in electricity market prices Europe-wide as well as the energy deficit in Europe. Default allocations, capacity and energy being simultaneously allocated, are strongly influenced by changes in the electricity price on European stock exchanges.
Between January and March 2022, the revenues from interconnection capacity allocation registered a significant increase of RON 59.2 mn compared to the same period last year, corresponding to:
The mechanism for allocating interconnection capacity consists of organizing annual, monthly, daily and intraday tenders. The annual, monthly and intraday ones (only on the border with Serbia) are explicit - only the transmission capacity is tendered, and the daily ones (border with Hungary and Bulgaria) and the intraday ones (borders with Hungary and Bulgaria) are implicit are allocated simultaneously with energy and capacity, through the coupling mechanism.
On June 17, 2021, the Romanian Day-Ahead Market started operating in a coupled mechanism at European level, with the implementation of the DE-AT-PL-4M MC project, also known as Interim Coupling, the Romania-Hungary border being integrated in the single day-ahead market coupling (SDAC). As of October 27, 2021, the Romania-Bulgaria border has been integrated into the single day-ahead market coupling (SDAC), cross-border capacity between Romania and Bulgaria being implicitly allocated.
The use of net revenues from the allocation of interconnection capacity is made in accordance with the provisions of updated ANRE Order no. 171/2019 and EU Regulation no. 943 of June 5, 2019 on the internal electricity market, as a source of investment financing for the modernization and development of interconnection capacity with neighbouring systems.
In coupled markets, energy transactions are made without paying capacity reservation fees on lines, which facilitates trade and the coupling mechanism takes energy flows from the cheapest to the most expensive markets.
Revenues from electricity transacted for OTC were mainly obtained by selling excess energy on the Intraday Market managed by OPCOM and under BRP CIGA Energy, on the Balancing Market.
The launch of the coupled intraday market at European level has ensured greater market liquidity and diversification of traded products under the XBID/SIDC project.
OTC transaction revenues were lower in Q1 2022 compared to Q1 2021 (from RON 6.1 mn in Q1 2021 to RON 5.8 mn in Q1 2022).
In the first quarter of 2022 as well as during 2021, the main factors that had a significant impact on revenues/expenditures in energy transactions to cover PTC, are the legislative changes on the electricity balancing market, with applicability from 1 February 2021 (e.g. 15-minute settlement, application of the single settlement price on the balancing market).

* ITC , reactive energy, OTC transactions, energy exchanges
Revenues from zero-profit activities registered a significant increase of 103% (+ RON 406 mn), from RON 393 mn on March 31, 2021 compared to RON 799 mn on March 31, 2022 mainly determined by the increase by RON 445 mn of revenues on the balancing market.
The higher revenues on the balancing market were owed mainly to the following issues:
this sense, from 01.01.2022 the European platform, International Grid Control Cooperation (IGCC)/IN Platform (Imbalance Netting) for the imbalance netting process between all TSOs, which perform the automatic frequency restoration process under part IV of Regulation (EU) 2017/1485.
The regulations applied in the national legislation in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and Council of 5 June 2019 regarding the electricity market, namely settlement made at 15 minutes' granularity, the single settlement price on the balancing and the management of COVID-19 nation-wide have had and will have significant impact on the revenues/costs of the balancing market.
The balancing market management has a specific regulatory framework containing regularisation mechanisms which compensate the revenue excess or deficit in the expenses necessary to develop such activities. Thus according to ANRE regulations the nonnull monthly balances (revenue surpluses) resulting from such activities will be compensated by ex-post tariff correction (negative correction) applied by ANRE in the tariff of years following that when such balances were registered.
During January-March 2022, revenues from technological system services decreased by 23% compared to January-March 2021 (RON 134 mn on March 31, 2022 compared to RON 173 mn on March 31, 2021), due to the decrease in the tariff approved by ANRE for these services amid the reduction of the amount of electricity delivered to consumers by a percentage of 4%.
The regulatory framework specific for technological system services includes regularisation mechanisms providing compensation of revenue excess/deficit compared to expenses necessary for such activities. Thus according to ANRE regulations the revenue surplus/deficit against costs recognised for such activities will be compensated by ex-post (negative/positive) tariff correction applied by ANRE in the tariff of years following that when such surplus/deficit was registered. The revenue surplus/deficit against costs resulting from such activities is calculated for the tariff scheduling period.
Total operational expenses (amortisement included) made in January-March 2022 registered an increase of 93% compared to the similar period of the previous year (RON 1,218 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 631 mn in Q1 2021).
In the profit allowed activities segment expenses (amortisement included) registered an increase of 60% (RON 439 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 275 mn in Q1 2021).

OTC: In Q1 2022, expenses for one's own technological consumption were higher by 173% (+ RON 162 mn) compared to Q1 2021, taking into account the following aspects:
noted Europe-wide, which has a significant impact on the costs incurred to cover OTC;
Average acquisition prices*

*- the average price was calculated at net value (purchase - sale)
On all markets there are considerably higher average prices than in Q1 2021, and the acquisition mix (net quantity) has the following components in the two analyzed periods:

Expenditures on electricity consumption in RET substations increased by 96% in January-March 2022 compared to January-March 2021 (RON 11.8 mn in 2022 compared to RON 6 mn in Q1 2021) due to price increases for the acquisition of electricity but also to the applicable legislative amendments starting with July 1, 2021, respectively the provisions of ANRE Order no. 82/2021.
In view of executing electricity transmission activities in electric substations and safely operate the National Power System Transelectrica has to procure electricity to cover the consumption of auxiliary services in high voltage power stations managed by the Company.
Monthly payment obligations/collection rights of each transmission system operator (TSO) are established under the compensation/settlement mechanism for the effects of using the electricity transmission grid (RET) to transit electricity in-between the TSOs that adhered to this ENTSO-E mechanism.
Between January and March 2022, these expenditures were 16% higher than in the same period of the previous year.
The zero-profit activities segment registered an increase of costs by 119% (RON 778 mn on March 31, 2022 compared to RON 355 mn on March 31, 2021), mainly determined by the increase of expenses on the balancing market.
The Company procures technological system services from producers in order to maintain safe operation of SEN and the quality of electricity transmitted at parameters required in applicable technical norms.
Such services are contracted as follows:
Technological system services are procured by competitive regime using daily bids, in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and Council of 5 June 2019.
In the first quarter of 2022, the contracting of technological system services under regulated regime was carried out only for Reactive Energy. Transelectrica contracted Reactive Energy from Hidroelectrica SA, according to ANRE Decision no. 1078/2020.
The value of the expenses regarding the technological system services in Q1 2022, registered a decrease of 15% compared to those in Q1 2021 (RON 121 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 143 mn in Q1 2021)
The value of TSS acquisition costs for Q1 2022 was mainly determined by the following factors:
The Company re-invoices the technological system services procured from generators to ANRE – licensed electricity suppliers, which eventually benefit of such services.
For 2022 it is estimated that the procurement of technological system services through import/export daily bids in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019, the evolution of ANRE's regulatory framework on the electricity market will have a significant impact on the development of technological system services procurement costs within Transelectrica.
Expenses regarding the balancing market made in Q1 2022, were higher by RON 445 mn compared to those achieved in Q1 2021. These expenses result from the notifications achievements of the participants on this market.
Profit allowed activities registered negative result in Q1 2022, decreasing by RON 66 mn compared to the one registered in the same period last year.

The current situation of prices on the wholesale electricity market is fundamentally different from the situation in Q1 2021, strongly influenced by the increase in prices on the electricity market.
The difference is significant and obvious Europe-wide, not only in Romania.
In this respect, the development of wholesale energy prices on the European spot market can be observed. The situation Europe-wide has deteriorated rapidly since the second half of 2021, with energy stress being unprecedented, especially for electricity and natural gas, fuels for electricity production.
In this situation, the short-term centralised markets organized by the Electricity Exchanges registered unprecedented historical prices, and for the next period no significant price decreases are expected
EBIT generated by zero-profit activities registered positive RON 21 mn, decreasing RON 17 mn against that recorded in the same interval of last year.
The zero-profit regulatory framework contains regularisation mechanisms that compensate for the excess or deficit of revenue relative to the level of expenditure required to carry out those activities.
For balancing market management, according to ANRE regulations, the non-zero monthly balances (income surpluses) resulting from the development of this activity are to be compensated by ex-post tariff correction (negative correction) applied by ANRE in the tariff in the years following those when the balances were recorded.
For technological system services, according to ANRE regulations, the surplus/deficit of income compared to the included costs resulting from the development of this activity is to be compensated by ex-post tariff correction (negative/positive correction) applied by ANRE in the tariff in the years following the one in which the surplus/deficit in question was recorded. The income surplus/deficit compared to the costs resulting from this activity is calculated over the scheduling periods of the tariff.
The gross result registered a decrease in the analyzed period, from RON 94 mn in Q1 2021 to RON 11 mn in Q1 2022.
The dynamics between the result recorded in Q1 2022 compared to Q1 2021, broken down by profit constitutive components, is provided in the following graph:

The net financial result registered in Q1 2022 is negative in the amount of RON 2 mn.
It was mainly influenced by the interest rates applied during the analysed period but also by the development of the national currency's exchange rate against Euro, the currency in which the Company has contracted bank loans to finance investment programs
The RON/Euro and RON/USD exchange rate in Q1 2022 is provided in the following graph:

The net result registered a decrease in the analyzed period, reaching RON 8 mn in Q1 2022, compared to RON 81.9 mn registered in 2021.
They registered in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 a slight increase in the amount of RON 6 mn, against a background of higher tangible assets underway, mainly determined by investments made into high voltage substations and lines.
Pag | 10 Such assets related to the usage rights for leased assets - buildings represent the right to use the Company-rented spaces in Platinum Office Building, according to the provisions of IFRS 16 – Leasing Contracts.
Beginning with 01.10.2020 the new lease contract (C232/2020 concluded with Dagesh Rom SRL) became effective, which is valid for 5 years.
As of March 31, 2022, the accounting value of the usage rights for Company-leased spaces in the Platinum Office Building amounted to RON 28 mn.
As of March 31, 2022, they did not register changes compared to December 31, 2021, remaining at the value of RON 82 mn.
Current assets increased by 9% on March 31, 2022 (RON 3,593 mn) compared to December 31, 2021 (RON 3,309 mn), mainly due to the increase in trade receivables, advances to suppliers and recoverable VAT.
Trade receivables increase by RON 70 mn (RON 2,264 mn as of March 31, 2022 compared to RON 2,194 mn as of December 31, 2021). The most important developments were:
clients from the operational activity which due to the increase in the volume of transactions resulting from the market coupling in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 generated a higher balance of receivables from the operational activity (RON 1,744 mn on March 31, 2022 compared to RON 1,408 mn as of December 31, 2021).
clients on the balancing market, which due to the decrease in the volume of transactions recorded a decrease in the balance of customers from contracts concluded for this type of activity on March 31, 2022 (RON 307 mn) compared to December 31, 2021 (RON 567 mn).
The main clients on balance on the electricity market are represented by: OPCOM, MAVIR, Ciga Energy SA, Electrica Furnizare SA, Cinta Energy SA, RAAN, Enel Energie SA, E.ON Energie Romania SA, IBEX, Tinmar Energy.
The share of the fore-mentioned clients is about 75% in total trade receivables.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company records receivables from the bonus-type support scheme for the promotion of high-efficiency cogeneration of approximately 9% (similar to December 31, 2021) of the total trade receivables. The increase of 1% related to the balances of the analyzed period was mainly determined by the increase of the invoiced value for the collection of the monthly contribution.
The Company carries out activities under the bonus-type support scheme to promote high efficiency cogeneration in its capacity of support scheme administrator in accordance with the provisions of HGR 1215/2009, its "main attributions being to collect monthly the cogeneration contribution and to pay bonuses each month".
As of March 31, 2022, the Company registers receivables in the amount of RON 210 mn, represented by the invoices issued related to the bonus-type support scheme for the promotion of high efficiency cogeneration, of which:
overcompensation for the period 2011-2013 in the amount of RON 76.70 mn, respectively from RAAN - RON 63.46 mn and CET Govora SA - RON 13.23 mn;
undue bonus for 2014 in the amount of RON 3.91 mn, respectively from RAAN – RON 1.98 mn, and CET Govora – RON 1.93 mn;
undue bonus for 2015 in the amount of RON 0.56 mn, respectively from CET Govora – RON 0.53 mn, Interagro – RON 0.03 mn;
undue bonus for 2020 in the amount of RON 0.52 mn from Donau Chem;

As of the date of this report, the Company has fully collected the receivables related to the overcompensation of the activity regarding the support scheme for 2021 (amount of RON 22.89 mn): CET Govora (RON 15.04 mn), BEPCO (RON 4.26 mn) and Electrocentrale Bucharest (RON 3.59 mn), as well as the amount of RON 32.63 mn from the undue bonus established by ANRE Decisions for 2022, from the following producers: Bepco SRL, Hunedoara Energy Complex, Oltenia Energy Complex, CET Govora, Colonia Cluj Napoca Energie, Contourglobal Solutions, Electrocentrale București, Electro Energy Sud, Electroutilaj SA, Poligen Power, Soceram SA, Termoficare Oradea and UATAA Motru.
To extinguish receivables generated by overcompensation and undue bonus the Company requested the producers qualified under the support scheme to make mutual compensations. In case of generators (RAAN, CET Govora) that did not agree with such manner of extinguishing mutual receivables and liabilities the Company has applied and further applies the provisions of article 17 para. 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE president approving the Regulation establishing the collection mode of the contribution for high efficiency cogeneration and the payment mode of the bonus for electricity generated under high efficiency cogeneration, and withheld from payment the related amounts under the support scheme.
Other receivables on 31 March 2022 amounted to RON 195 mn and mainly included:
sundry debtors (RON 161 mn), of which:
The net position of the support scheme is the difference between:
the amount of the cogeneration bonus, the precompensation and the unpaid bonus paid to the high-efficiency cogeneration energy producers, beneficiaries of the support scheme, on the other hand.
delay penalties calculated for defaulting clients, in the amount of RON 95.75 mn (of which the amount of RON 35.36 mn represents penalties related to the support scheme). The greatest delay penalties were registered by the following clients: RAAN (RON 16.90 mn), Romelectro (RON 14.75 mn), CET Govora (RON 9.61 mn), Electrocentrale București (RON 9.41 mn), Eco Energy SRL (RON 8.91mn), Petprod SRL (RON 8.89 mn), Next Energy Partners (RON 8.39 mn), Total Electric Oltenia (RON 3.29 mn), OPCOM (RON 2.40 mn),
compensations owed by suppliers for their non-delivery of electricity: Arelco Power (RON 0.99 mn) and Enol Grup (RON 2.54 mn), impairment allowances were registered for the compensations owed by suppliers from operational activities,
receivables recoverable from OPCOM representing VAT related to the contribution in kind to the subsidiary's share capital amounting to RON 4.52 mn.
deferred expenses amounting to RON 17.6 mn mainly represented by: expenses related to the acquisition of OTC (RON 6.6 mn), international fee ENTSO-E (RON 4.4 mn), ANRE annual contribution for 2022 (RON 2.8 mn), taxes and fees for 2022 (RON 2.6 mn), rent and maintenance of office buildings (RON 0.7 mn), RCA and CASCO policies;
Down payments to suppliers paid on 31 March 2022 are represented by debtor suppliers for services amounting to RON 929 mn and mainly represent sums from transactions related to the price-coupling mechanism (ICP – Interim Coupling Project, SIDC - Single Intraday Coupling and SDAC - Single Day-ahead Coupling) (RON 870.5 mn for ICP & SDAC and 58.1 mn for SIDC).
The start of the new successful SDAC Single Day-ahead Coupling took place on October 28, 2021 and is the result of cooperation between Nominated Electricity Market Operators (NEMOs) and Transmission System Operators (TSOs) in Bulgaria and Romania, respectively IBEX EAD, OPCOM SA, ESO EAD and Transelectrica.
VAT to recover represents the amount not recovered (related to the settlements of December 2021 - March 2022) of RON 267.5 mn. On May 4, 2022, the Company received from the state the amount of RON 169.4 mn.
The policy of Transelectrica consists in registering impairment allowances for value losses in quantum of 100% for clients under dispute, insolvency and bankruptcy and 100% of trade receivables and other receivables not collected for more than 180 days, except for outstanding receivables generated by the support scheme. The Company also makes individual analysis of uncollected trade receivables and other receivables.
The greatest impairment allowances as of March 31, 2022, calculated for trade receivables and related penalties, were recorded for CET Govora (RON 25.1 mn), Eco Energy SRL (RON 24.7 mn), Petprod SRL (RON 23.5 mn), Arelco Power (RON 14.8 mn), Total Electric Oltenia SA (RON 14.2 mn), Romenergy Industry (RON 13.5 mn), Romelectro SA (RON 12.9 mn) GETICA 95 (RON 12.5 mn), Elsaco Energy (RON 9.3 mn), RAAN (RON 8.5 mn).
Non-current liabilities amounting to RON 718 mn on March 31, 2022 registered a decrease of 1% compared to the value recorded on December 31, 2021 in the amount of RON 723 mn.
As of March 31, 2022, the value of non-current loans decreased compared to December 31, 2021, mainly due to repayments made under existing loan agreements. Instead, the value of current loans increased from the balance of RON 25 mn in December 2021 to RON 216 mn on March 31, 2022 by contracting current bank loans for the current activity.
At the same time, current debt increased by 9%, from RON 3,164 mn on December 31, 2021 to RON 3,447 mn on March 31, 2022, mainly due to the increase in current loans but also trade payables and other liabilities.
Impact on the evolution of trade payables had:
suppliers on the energy market which decreased by RON 39 mn and record a balance in the amount of RON 1,893 mn in Q1 2022 compared to RON 1,855 mn in 2021
This evolution was mainly influenced by:
The suppliers on the electricity market are mainly represented by: IBEX, Hidroelectrica SA, OPCOM, MAVIR, Electrocentrale București SA, S Complexul energetic Oltenia SA, Joint Allocation Office, CIGA Energy SA, CINTA Energy SA, Electrica Furnizare SA. As of March 31, 2022, their share in total energy suppliers is about 89%.
- the decrease of the debts related to the balancing market by RON 325 mn was determined by the decrease of the volume of transactions registered on the balancing market in the first quarter of 2022, compared to December 2021.
- the decrease of the debts related to the support scheme to suppliers (producers) by RON 1 mn was determined by the decrease of the value of the monthly bonus for high efficiency cogeneration from March 2022, compared to December 2021.
As of March 31, 2022, there are payment obligations to suppliers (producers) in the amount of RON 35.5 mn
(RAAN – RON 32.2 mn and CET Govora SA – RON 3.4 mn), representing the monthly cogeneration bonus, preovercompensation for 2014 and 2015, bonus not granted for 2015.
The amounts representing the debts of the Company related to the support scheme towards RAAN and CET Govora were withheld from payment based on art. 17 para. 5 of the Order ANRE President no. 116/2013, as suppliers (producers) record payment obligations to the Company on the bonus support scheme.
"Other debts" which increased by RON 198 mn, registering an increase from the balance of RON 965.5 mn in 2021 to RON 1,163 mn in Q1 2022.
The "other debt" structure is as follows:
Provisions decreased in value in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, from RON 51.7 mn on December 31, 2021 to RON 38.9 mn on March 31, 2022, a decrease mainly determined by:
the decrease of the value of the provisions set up for litigations which on March 31, 2022 are in the amount of RON 20.5 mn compared to RON 31.2 mn registered at the end of 2021,
provisions for mandate contracts which on March 31, 2022 have a balance of RON 18.4 mn and which mainly represent the remuneration of executive and nonexecutive directors, remuneration consisting of the variable component related to the OAVT packages allocated and not valued during the mandates between 2013-2017.
Equity registered an increase mainly determined by the registration in the retained earnings of the net profit in the amount of RON 8 mn, achieved on March 31, 2022. Thus the equity on March 31, 2022 is worth RON 3,366.4 mn compared to RON 3,355.1 mn in 2021.
2022 started with a trading price of 22.80 lei/share. At the end of the period, the market capitalization was 1,466 mn lei, the share's price being 20.00 lei/share. The minimum trading price was registered on 07.03.2022, of 17.40 lei/share, the maximum of 23.50 lei/share being reached on 11.01.2022.
The company has the ability to adapt to the economic context generated by the energy crisis aggravated by the war between Russia and Ukraine, the repercussions being observed even in the share price which at the end of the period fell by 12% from the reference value at the beginning of the year, consequently the market value registered a decrease of RON 205 mn.

Development of TEL share
During the first quarter of 2022, the trading of TEL shares on the Romanian capital market registered 5,159 transactions with an average number of 82 transactions/day and 729,619 traded shares, with a total value of 14,763 thousand lei.
Transelectrica shares belong in the structure of the following stock exchange indexes: BET-NG, BET, BET-TR, BET-XT, BET-XT-TR, BET-BK, BETPlus, BET-TRN, and BET-XT-TRN.
Among those, the most representative for the Company are:
According to the latest adjustment date registered on 11.03.2022, TEL shares have a share of 1.10% in the BET index and 3.67% in the BET-NG index.
The development of the TEL share against the two indexes is provided in the graph below:

Risk is an objective concept, which means it is measurable and can be minimised using preventive measures. Risk exposure occurs when a share provides a possible gain or loss, which cannot be anticipated for certain.
Incertitude refers to a situation when there are several alternatives leading to a specific result, but the result probability is not certain. This is owed to insufficient information or knowledge about current state of affairs. Consequently, it is difficult to define or predict future results or events.
Obviously knowing the threats enables their classification depending on the likelihood of their occurrence, on the size of impacts over objectives and on the costs implied by the measures meant to reduce the occurrance chances or to limit unwanted effects.
In entire Transelectrica risks are periodically systematically analysed pertaining to one's activities, elaborating the Risk Register of identified risks and the corresponding Measure Plan towards limiting the possible consequences of such risks, according to legal provisions.
Among the elements that can impact the Company's liquidity are:
Breaching these clauses can entail, based on preliminary notification and a reasonable amount of time, anticipated credit payment; some credits include penalty clauses for anticipated repayment.
To date the Company did not receive notification of anticipated reimbursement for the failure to comply with assumed obligations.
In the first quarter of 2022, but also at the end of 2021 other identified risks that could influence the financial performance of the Company:
Risk of credit rating deterioration when indicators and the macro-political environment worsen and/or the Company's financial performance gets worse. This risk reflects a complex of factors with potential effect over the financing costs on the credit market, which can significantly impact the Company taking into account the substantial capital amount necessary to be drawn to finance the investment plan of the following years. On the other hand the Company rating depends strongly on Romania's sovereign rating. There is a risk that the rating agencies will demote Romania as a result of accelerated inflation, which tends to exceed 10%, but also as a result of the uncertain situation at the country's borders.
As of October 19, 2021, the Company has improved its rating (Corporate Family Rating) being evaluated by the agency Moody's Investors Service at the level of the sovereign rating, respectively Baa3, stable outlook.
The Company does not only treat the consequences of events that might occur but applies reactive management, implementing measures meant to mitigate risk occurrence.
At the same time periodical reviews of risks, as provided by standards, lead to resource re-allocation in accordance with changed classifications and, implicitly, changed priorities.
Transelectrica pays proper importance to analysing the risk environment and timely detection of possible risks that might occur in the future, which should be approached in due time.
Throughout Q1 2022 the Company did not find it impossible to comply with its financial obligations.
At the same time, the Company pays attention to the efficient management of the treasury by maintaining sufficient liquid resources to be able to meet its obligations as they mature, as well as the availability of financing through active credit facilities.
The current situation of wholesale electricity prices continues to maintain the same trend started in 2021 when the average price of energy purchased on DAM was 4 times higher than the similar period of 2020, significantly exceeding the values recorded in recent years.
In this context, the Company faces in some periods a lack of cash caused by accelerated price increases on both the Day-Ahead Market and the Intraday Market to achieve an OTC coverage as close as possible to the delivery time.
To tackle this situation, Transelectrica used short-term financing by contracting loans as revolving credit lines.
Thus, there are no risks and uncertainties for the next months of the financial year 2022, other than those presented above, which would affect the Company's liquidity.
Analyzing the evolution of the components of the energy balance, in the period January - March 2022, there were decreases in net internal consumption1 and net electricity output, by 4% and 7% compared to the same period of the previous year.
Physical exporting cross-border exchanges increased by 4% in Q1 2022 compared to Q1 2021, and cross-border import flows increased by 42%.

Regarding the generation mix, in the period January - March 2022 compared to the similar period of 2021, there was a decrease of the Thermal component by 5% and the Hydro component by 30%. Increases were recorded from the Nuclear component, in a percentage of 5% and from Renewable sources in a percentage of 20%.
Examining the shares of net output mix components for the period January - March 2022, it is observed that the largest share, 36%, is represented by the Thermal component followed by the Hydro component 24%, and the energy produced from renewable and nuclear sources has a share of approximately 21% and 20% respectively.

The installed capacity in thermal power plants decreased by about 22%, from 7,627 MW installed on March 31, 2021, to 5,966 MW installed on March 31, 2022.
The installed capacity for the period January - March 2022 versus January - March 2021, is shown in the following graphs:

Installed capacity Q1 2021 (20,226 MW, gross)

1 Values do not include the consumption of auxiliary services from electricity generating plants; the net consumption value includes the losses of transmission and distribution networks as well as the consumption of pumps from pumping storage hydropower substations
In the first quarter of 2022, electricity demand at SEN level decreased in all three months, with values between 0.16% in January and 5.04% in February, respectively.
The first quarter of 2022 ended with a decrease in consumption, which was influenced on the one hand by the increase in prices for primary fuels, a phenomenon that was reflected in the final price of electricity, and on the other hand, the average temperatures in January and February recorded positive anomalies, being above the climatological norms. Production also decreased by 7.18%.
The distribution of physical import/export flows on the interconnection lines between January and March 2022 compared to January - March 2021 is as follows:
Specifically, compared to the period January - March 2021, physical export flows decreased with Bulgaria (- 19% -104 GWh), Hungary (-65% - 134 GWh) and Ukraine (-82% - 132 GWh) and increased on the border with Serbia (+413 GWh) and Moldova (+ 132GWh), at the same time as the increase in physical import flows on the interconnection lines with Bulgaria (+443 GWh), Hungary (+ 35% +106 GWh) and Ukraine ( + 72% +226 GWh), and decrease on Serbia (-80% -223GWh).
The physical import and export flows across each border are as follows:

Between January and March 2022, the total allocated capacity on the interconnection lines for export increased significantly compared to the same period of 2021 to Serbia.
Trade in the first quarter of 2022 includes the amount of imported and exported electricity as a result of the Company's participation as an operational member in the European Imbalance Netting (IGCC) platform, as of December 17, 2021.

Usage rate of total allocated capacity (%)
The usage rate of total capacity rights on one border and one direction represents the ratio, expressed in percentage points, between the electricity associated to achieved (notified) commercial exchanges during one month and the electricity corresponding to the total capacity rights.
Compared to the first quarter of 2021, there was an increase in the allocated capacity to imports, respectively an increase of 15% in trade in imports, a decrease of 67% in trade in exports and 97% of transited energy, against the background of a much lower hydraulicity compared to last year and in the conditions of a lower internal consumption of electricity compared to the similar period of 2021.
Transelectrica, as a Transmission System Operator, invests in increasing interconnection capacities in the context of alignment with European requirements, as follows:
From 1 June 2021, a new set of common rules for the settlement of planned energy exchanges and unplanned energy exchanges applies (FSKAR calculation methodology - Financial Settlement of k△f, ACE and Ramping Period) which provides carrying out a financial settlement between the Transmission System Operators and the System, thus eliminating the in-kind compensations determined according to the ENTSO-E methodology by the Settlement Centers in Brauweiler (Germany) and Laufenburg (Switzerland), which the Company trades on the Day-Ahead Market.
The respective Settlement Centers will transmit the results to each Transmission System Operator in the form of daily files containing the intended exchanges and unintentional exchanges (quantities - prices) calculated for the respective Transmission System Operator, on each settlement interval.
The price set is the weighted average of the prices for trading on the Day-Ahead Markets in all ENTSO-E Member States, the prices being in Euro/MWh.
The costs and revenues highlighted in the invoice received from JAO regarding the settlement of energy related to unintentional exchanges will be included in the settlement calculation from the Balancing Market, in accordance with the provisions of ANRE Order no. 33/2021, regarding the amendment and completion of the Regulation for the calculation and settlement of imbalances of the parties responsible for balancing single imbalance price, approved by ANRE Order no. 213/2020.
Revenue and expenditure on intentional energy exchanges (FSKAR-FCP-EU) and unintentional energy exchanges (FSKAR-EU) are recorded on the indicators of balancing market revenues and balancing market expenditures, taking into account settlement of energy market imbalances, with intentional and unintended trade being integrated into the balancing market settlement mechanism;
As of January 1, 2022, the European platform, International Grid Control Cooperation (IGCC)/IN Platform (Imbalance Netting) for the process of compensating for imbalances between all TSOs, which performs the automatic frequency restoration process under Part IV of Regulation (EU) 2017/1485.
It should be noted that the International Grid Control Cooperation (IGCC) is the project that was chosen in 2016 by ENTSO-E to become the future European platform for the process of offsetting imbalances, as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017 / 1485 of the Commission of 2 August 2017 establishing a guideline on the operation of the electricity transmission system (art. 22).
The IGCC initiative was launched in 2010 by German operators and later extended to Central European systems, as a way of optimizing the secondary frequency control, by reducing the counter-actions of member operators' regulators, resulting in thus an optimized use of the system reserve "Automatic Frequency Restoration Reserve" of the aFRR, overall.
Compared to the first quarter of 2021, in the first quarter of 2022 OTC in RET decreased by approx. 19%, and the percentage OTC decreased from 2.81% to 2.28%.
The factors that significantly influenced the OTC between January and March 2022, such as precipitation and the distribution of cross-border physical flows, are not under the control of Transelectrica.
In January 2022 the OTC decreased by 7.3% compared to January 2021, mainly due to the better distribution of physical flows on the interconnection lines, which led to a reduction in electricity transmission at long distance from sources, but also favorable weather conditions, characterized by lower rainfall, which led to lower corona losses.
The percentage of losses compared to the electricity input into RET outline decreased from 2.94% in January 2021 to 2.42% in January 2022. The electricity input into the outline increased by 3.6% in January 2022 (141 GWh) compared to for the same period in 2021, as a result of an increase of 3.2% (100.3 GWh) in energy received from producers connected to RET and 10.1% (46.6 GWh) in energy received from imports, against the background of the decrease by 1.8% (5.9 GWh) of the one received from RED.
In February 2022, OTC decreased by 26.7% compared to February 2021, mainly due to the more advantageous distribution of physical flows on the interconnection lines and the favorable distribution of production, which led to a reduction in electricity transmission at long distance from sources, but also from the favorable meteorological conditions, characterized by lower precipitation, which determined lower corona losses.
The percentage of losses related to the electricity input into RET outline decreased from 2.93% in February 2021 to 2.04% in February 2022. The electricity input into the outline decreased by 2.8% (100.8 GWh) in February 2022 compared to the similar period of 2021, against the background of the decrease of the energy received from the producers connected directly to RET by 7.4% (220.3 GWh) and of the one from RED by 7.3% (17.1 GWh), amid the increase in energy received from imports by 33.3% (106.7 GWh).
In March 2022, OTC increased by 0.8% compared to March 2021, mainly due to the more unfavorable distribution of physical flows on the interconnection lines in the south of the country, which led to an increase in electricity transmission at long distance from sources.
The percentage of losses related to the electricity input into RET outline decreased from 2.57% in March 2021 to 2.36% in March 2022. The electricity input into the outline decreased by 2.8% (106 GWh) in March 2022 compared to similar period in 2021, against the background of the decrease of the energy received from the producers connected directly to RET by 13.4% (406.1 GWh) and of the one received from RED by 21.1% (69.5 GWh), amid the energy increase received from imports by 83.8% (369.7 GWh). The amount of precipitation was lower, which led to lower corona losses.
Pag | 19 In conclusion, over the whole of the first quarter of 2022, OTC in RET decreased by about 19.4% compared to the same period in the first quarter of 2021, due to the more advantageous distribution of physical flows on the interconnection lines in the first two months and favorable weather conditions throughout the period, which led to lower corona losses. Compared to the energy input into the outline, the losses decreased from 2.81% to 2.28%.
It should be noted that the values for March 2022 are preliminary.

The increase in the total value of tangible assets on 31 March 2022 compared to 31 March 2021 was determined by the increase in the value of tangible assets in progress simultaneously with the recording of the depreciation of tangible assets.

In case of generators that did not agree with this manner to extinguish mutual receivables and liabilities (RAAN, Electrocentrale Bucharest, and CET Govora) the Company has applied and further applies the provisions of article 17 para 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President approving the Regulation establishing the collection mode of the contribution for high efficiency cogeneration and the bonus payment for the electricity generated under high efficiency cogeneration: "in case the generator did not make the payment in full to the support scheme administrator for its payment obligations resulted in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation, the support scheme administrator pays to the producer the difference between the producer invoices and its payment obligations under the support scheme, with explicit mention of the respective amounts on the payment document" and withheld from payment the due amounts under the respective support scheme.
On the docket of Mehedinti Tribunal, Section II Civil of Administrative & Fiscal Disputes file 9089/101/2013/a140 was registered pertaining to "claims in amount of 86,513,431", where the Company is claimant and the Autonomous Authority for Nuclear Activities – RAAN is defendant.
The law court summons filed by Transelectrica SA requested the instance to compel defendant RAAN to pay 86,513,431. On 19.05.2016 Mehedinti Tribunal, Section II Civil of Administrative & Fiscal Disputes pronounced hearing conclusion and ordered as follows: "In accordance with article 413 pt. 1 Civil Procedure Code decides suspending the case until settlement of file 3014/2/2014 found on the docket of the High Court for Cassation and Justice. Appeal right is valid during the entire suspension term; pronounced on 19 May 2016 at public hearing"; hearing term on 06.06.2019. Mention should be made file 3014/2/2014 on the docket of the High Court for Cassation and Justice pertained to appeal in order to cancel ANRE Decision 743/28.03.2014, the parties being RAAN (claimant) and ANRE (defendant).
Mention should be also made the hearing conclusion of 18.09.2013 issued by Mehedinti Tribunal under file 9089/101/2013 pronounced opening the general insolvency procedure against debtor Autonomous Authority for Nuclear Activities RA (RAAN).
Ruling 387/20.03.2014 of Mehedinti Tribunal confirmed the reorganisation plan of debtor Autonomous Authority for Nuclear Activities, proposed by the judiciary administrator Tudor&Asociatii SPRL and voted by the General Assembly of Creditors according to the minutes of 28.02.2014.
In the intermediate ruling 10/28.01.2016 pronounced by Mehedinti Tribunal, Section II Civil of Administrative & Fiscal Disputes, the syndic judge decided initiating the debtor's bankruptcy procedure based on article 107 para 1 let. C of Law 85/2006, as well as breaking up the debtor and cancelling its administration right.
Ruling 563/14.06.2016 of the Appeal Court Craiova, Section II Civil denied the appeals filed against the intermediate ruling 10/28.01.2016, pronounced by Mehedinti Tribunal, Section II Civil of Administrative & Fiscal Disputes.
Once submitting the receivable statement under RAAN's bankruptcy procedure Transelectrica SA can resort to the provisions of article 52 from Law 85/2006, applicable to RAAN's bankruptcy procedure, provisions resumed in article 90 of Law 85/2014 on the creditor's right to invoke compensation for its receivables with its debtor's to it, whenever the lawprovided conditions for legal compensation are complied with on the procedure opening date. Transelectrica SA was recoded with 11,264,777 Lei in the table of debtor RAAN, in the category of receivables resulting from the debtor's uninterrupted activity, the actual amount the Company requested being 89,360,986 Lei, but 78,096,208.76 Lei were not registered in the preliminary receivable table because "such sum was not recorded as owed liability in RAAN's accounting books". Moreover the judiciary liquidator considered the request to record 78,096,209 Lei was made late since it pertained to 2011 – 2013, for which reason the receivable statement should have been submitted when the insolvency procedure began, namely on 18.09.2013.
In consequence of registering only a part from the total amount requested by Transelectrica in quantum of 89,360,986.06 Lei and of letter 4162/03.10.2016, whereby the judiciary liquidator informed us only the sum of 11,264,777.30 Lei was recorded in the additional table of receivables resulting from continued debtor activities, while 78,096,208.76 Lei were denied. Contestation was submitted to the Additional receivables table within the legal term.
On the 14.02.2019 hearing term Mehedinti Tribunal decided joining file 9089/101/2013/a152 to file 9089/101/2013/a140 (pertaining to payment request). File judgment was deferred because the court deemed it useful for settlement to have ruling

2969/26.09.2018 submitted, pronounced by the High Court of Cassation and Justice under file 3014/2/2014, pertaining to cancelling Decision 743/2014 of ANRE President.
Mehedinti Tribunal decided as follows: "It admits the exception of decline. It partly admits the main issue and associated contestation. It compels defendant RAAN to pay to claimant Transelectrica the amount of 16,950,117.14 Lei accrued during the procedure, judging to record it in the creditors' table constituted against debtor RAAN by this sum. The other associated demands are denied. In accordance with article 453 para 2 from the Civil Procedural Code it compels the defendant to pay 1000 Lei law court expenses to the claimant. Appeal right is granted. It was pronounced on 20.06.2019 at public hearing". Document: Ruling 163/2019 20.06.2019.
Transelectrica filed appeal within the legal term. The Appeal Court Craiova established the first hearing term on 30.10.2019; the appeal was denied as groundless. Transelectrica filed review request for contrary rulings, registered under file 1711/54/2019, with hearing term on 25.03.2020 to the Appeal Court Craiova, which was supposed to refer the file to the High Court of Cassation and Justice for competent settlement.
On 26.03.2020 the hearing term was changed and the following was set on 21.05.2020.
On 21.05.2020 the case was taken out of the docket with the following settlement: it admitted the exception of material incompetence of the Appeal Court Craiova and decided referring it to ICCJ, Section of Administrative & Fiscal Disputes; ruling 140/21.05.2020, next term on 03.02.2021.
On 03.02.2021 ICCJ admitted the exception of tardive revision request and did no longer pronounce on its inadmissibility.
Also there are 4 other files under various judgment stages between RAAN and Transelectrica.
In accordance with RAAN's bankruptcy file under number 9089/101/2013, on the 08.10.2020 and 04.02.2021 terms Mehedinti Tribunal deferred the case. Settlement in brief: a term was granted to continue liquidation procedures, represent the debtor's interests in the disputes found on the docket of law courts; to consolidate the creditors' amounts, to continue measures to recover receivables and the public auctions to capitalise the debtor's assets.
On the 14.10.2021 term the case was deferred with the following settlement in brief: "it provided term to continue the procedure, namely to capitalise the assets and carry out the other liquidation operations".
On the 10.02.2022 term the case was deferred, settlement in brief: "to carry out the procedure, namely capitalise the assets, collect receivables and perform the other liquidation operations; the parties will be summoned by means of BPI" and the following term was established on 02.06.2022.
CNTEE Transelectrica SA concluded with CET Govora SA an agreement to compensate and spread out the payment of amounts representing receivables from the 2011-2013 overcompensation and the 2014 undue bonus (Agreement C 135/30.06.2015 and Addendum 1/04.08.2015). The Agreement term was about 1 year (July 2015-August 2016) and it provided the Company's right to calculate and cash penalties during payment spread-out.
In accordance with such Agreement the Company's receivables collectable from CET Govora SA were compensated with its liabilities to CET Govora SA, represented by cogeneration bonus for May 2014 – October 2015 amounting to 40,507,669, withheld by applying the provisions of article 17 para 5 of ANRE President's Order 116/2013 and the Agreement provisions.
Since ANRE Decision 738/28.03.2014 was suspended by court civil ruling 3185/27.11.2015, which had determined the 2011-2013 overcompensation, CET Govora SA has no longer complied with the Agreement terms.
Beginning with 9 May 2016 the general insolvency procedure was initiated for CET Govora. In view of recovering the receivables accrued before opening the insolvency procedure the Company followed the specific procedures specified by the Insolvency Law 85/2014 and requested the court to admit its receivables, as per legal provisions. Taking into account the above, beginning with 9 May 2016 the Company ceased applying the provisions of article 17.5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President approving the Regulation establishing the collection mode of the contribution for high efficiency cogeneration and the bonus payment for electricity generated by high efficiency cogeneration and paid monthly the cogeneration bonus to CET Govora.
Civil ruling 2430/05.10.2016 of the High Court of Cassation and Justice admitted the appeal filed by ANRE against civil ruling 3185/27.11.2015, partly cancelled the sentence appealed against and denied the suspension request of CET Govora, such decision being final. Thus beginning with 05.10.2016 the effects of ANRE Decision 738/28.03.2014 are no longer suspended, bearing full effects.
Under such circumstances the Company applies the provisions of article 17 para 5 of ANRE Order 116/ 2013 for mutual receivables and liabilities occurred after the insolvency procedure, meaning withholding the bonus due to CET Govora SA up to the concurrence of amounts related to the support scheme that were not paid to the Company.

Under such circumstances the Company included the amount of 22,188,224.16 from the support scheme in the sundry debtors' account, which is analytically distinct - ANRE, and impacts the net position of the support scheme.
The amount of 22,188,224.16 represents receivable payable by CET Govora under the support scheme, in sum of 25,557,190, corrected with the bonus amounting to 3,368,966 the Company withheld according to article 17 para 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President.
In accordance with item 11 of HG 925/2016 amending and adding HG 1.215/2009 establishing the criteria and conditions necessary to implement the support scheme to promote high efficiency cogeneration based on the useful heat demand, ANRE is going to elaborate the regulatory framework for the financial closure of this scheme. On the elaboration date of such notes on ANRE's site a project has been put to debate, the Draft Order to approve the Methodology establishing the principles applicable for the financial closure of the support scheme to promote high efficiency cogeneration.
In accordance with the provisions of Governmental Decision 925/2016 with later amendments and additions, provided above, the Company has not registered impairment allowance expenses for clients under the support scheme; the unrecovered amount of such receivables will be included in the cogeneration contribution.
On 31 March 2022 other receivables amounting to 195,214,622 included in the main:
The net position of the support scheme represents the difference between:

On 31 March 2022 these are represented by supplier-debtors for services provided in amount of 928,783,779 and are mainly sums from the transactions under the price-coupling mechanism (ICP - Interim Coupling Project, SIDC - Single Intraday Coupling and SDAC - Single Day-ahead Coupling) (870,549,357 for ICP and SDAC, and 58,100,039 for SIDC).
The price coupling mechanism was applied beginning with 19 November 2014, date when the '4 Markets Market Coupling' project providing connection of the day-ahead electricity markets (DAM) from Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia became operational. On June 17th the Interim Coupling project was launched, which represents the day-ahead markets of 4MMC countries with the similar markets of Poland, Austria and Germany.
Such price coupling mechanism of day-ahead markets means the electricity exchanges correlate the electricity transactions for the following day based on bids, taking into account the interconnection capacity made available by the TSO, whereby it is implicitly allocated. CNTEE Transelectrica SA as TSO transfers electricity both in physical and commercial terms to the neighbouring TSO (MAVIR, Hungary) and manages the congestion revenues on the respective interconnection (article 139 from ANRE Order 82/2014), and in relation to OPCOM SA it is Implicit Participant to the Day-Ahead Market.
In its capacity of Transfer Agent and Implicit Participant CNTEE Transelectrica SA has the commercial task to settle the electricity transacted between OPCOM SA and MAVIR.
On 19 November 2019 the 2nd wave was launched under the single European intraday markets coupling (SIDC - Single Intraday Coupling), with first deliveries on 20 November. Seven countries: Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovenia joined the fourteen countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and Sweden that have been already operated under coupled regime since June 2018.
The single intraday markets coupling mechanism provides uninterrupted harmonisation of sale and purchase offers from market participants of a bidding zone with the sale and purchase offers within their own bidding zone and from any other bidding zone where cross-border capacity is available.
In its capacity of Transfer Agent CNTEE Transelectrica SA has the commercial task to settle the electricity transacted between OPCOM SA, MAVIR and IBEX.
28 October 2021 represented the start of the new successful coupling SDAC Single Day-ahead Coupling, result of the cooperation between the Nominated Electricity Market Operators (NEMO-s) and Transmission System Operators (TSO) of Bulgaria and Romania, namely IBEX EAD, OPCOM SA, ESO EAD and CNTEE Transelectrica SA. The purpose of SDAC is to create a pan-European single cross-border day-ahead electricity market. An integrated day-ahead market enhances the general efficiency of transactions by promoting effective competition, increasing liquidity and enabling a more efficient utilisation of generation resources all over Europe.
In its capacity of transfer agent for Romania's bidding zone CNTEE Transelectrica SA has the task to settle the electricity transacted between OPCOM SA and IBEX.

On 31 March 2022 and 31 December 2021 trade and other liabilities were as follows:
| 31 March 2022 | 31 December 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Suppliers on the electricity market | 1,854,509,527 | 1,893,042,316 |
| Asset suppliers | 101,185,329 | 158,369,109 |
| Suppliers of other activities | 43,484,372 | 38,990,780 |
| Amounts owed to employees | 8,525,300 | 8,675,618 |
| Other liabilities | 1,163,034,809 | 965,489,650 |
| Total | 3,170,739,337 | 3,064,567,473 |
On 31 March 2022 and 31 December 2021 liabilities on balance on the electricity market amounted to 1,854,509,527, namely to 1,893,042,316 and provided the following structure:
| 31 March 2022 | 31 December 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Suppliers on the electricity market, of whom: | ||
| - Suppliers - operational activity | 1,413,325,707 | 1,125,210,670 |
| - Suppliers - on the balancing market | 224,593,217 | 549,941,350 |
| - Suppliers - bonus type support scheme to promote high efficiency cogeneration |
216,590,603 | 217,890,296 |
| Total | 1,854,509,527 | 1,893,042,316 |
Suppliers on the electricity market are mainly represented by: IBEX, Hidroelectrica SA, OPCOM, MAVIR, Electrocentrale Bucharest SA, Energy Complex Oltenia SA, Joint Allocation Office, CIGA Energy SA, CINTA Energy SA, and Electrica Furnizare SA. On 31 March 2022 their share in the total electricity suppliers was about 88.60%.
The higher balance of "liabilities associated to operational activities" was mainly determined by paying in second quarter of 2022 the payment liabilities on balance on 31 March 2022, mainly resulted from electricity markets coupling.
The lower balance of "liabilities associated to the balancing market" was determined by a lower volume of transactions registered on the balancing market in the first quarter of 2022, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.
The decrease of "liabilities associated to the support scheme" to suppliers (producers) was determined by lower amounts of monthly bonuses for high efficiency cogeneration in March 2022 compared to December 2021.
On 31 March 2022 payment liabilities were registered to suppliers (producers) in amount of 35,549,294 (RAAN – 32,180,328 and CET Govora SA – 3,368,966), representing monthly cogeneration bonuses, ex-ante overcompensation of 2014 and 2015, unpaid bonus in 2015. The amounts representing Company liabilities under the support scheme to RAAN and CET Govora were withheld for payment according to article 17 para 5 of Order 116/2013 of ANRE president, because suppliers (producers) register payment liabilities to the Company under the bonus type support scheme.
The Company requested the suppliers (generators) that did not pay the overcompensation invoices the agreement to compensate mutual liabilities at their minimum by means of the Institute of Management and Informatics (IMI), which is uniformly managing all information received from tax-payers according to HG 685/1999.
Generators (RAAN and CET Govora) did not agree with this manner of extinguishing mutual receivables and liabilities, therefore the Company has applied and further applies article 17 para 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President approving the Regulation establishing the collection mode of the contribution for high efficiency cogeneration and the bonus payment for electricity generated under high efficiency cogeneration: "in case the generator did not make the payment in full to the support scheme administrator for its payment obligations resulted in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation, the support scheme administrator pays to the producer the difference between the producer invoices and its payment obligations under the support scheme, with explicit mention of the respective amounts on the payment document" and withheld from payment the due amounts under the respective support scheme.
CNTEE Transelectrica SA concluded with CET Govora SA an agreement to compensate and spread out the payment of amounts representing receivables from the 2011-2013 overcompensation and the 2014 undue bonus (Agreement C 135/30.06.2015 and Addendum 1/04.08.2015). The Agreement term was about 1 year (July 2015-August 2016) and it provided the Company's right to calculate and cash penalties during payment spread-out.
In accordance with such Agreement the Company's receivables collectable from CET Govora SA were compensated with its liabilities to CET Govora SA, represented by cogeneration bonuses for May 2014 – October 2015 amounting to 40,507,669, withheld by applying the provisions of article 17 para 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President and the Agreement provisions.
Since ANRE Decision 738/28.03.2014 was suspended by court civil judgment 3185/27.11.2015, which had determined the 2011-2013 overcompensation, CET Govora SA has no longer complied with the Agreement terms. Beginning with 9 May 2016 the general insolvency procedure was initiated for CET Govora. Taking into account the provisions of the Insolvency Law 85/2014 the Company ceased, beginning with 9 May 2016, to apply the provisions of article 17.5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE President approving the Regulation establishing the collection mode of the contribution for high efficiency cogeneration and the payment mode of the bonus for electricity generated under high efficiency cogeneration and pays monthly the cogeneration bonus owed to CET Govora. Civil ruling 2430/05.10.2016 of the High Court of Cassation and
(All amounts are expressed in LEI, unless otherwise provided)
Justice admitted the appeal filed by ANRE against civil ruling 3185/27.11.2015, partly cancelled the sentence appealed against and denied the suspension request of CET Govora. Thus, beginning with 05.10.2016 the effects of ANRE Decision 738/28.03.2014 are no longer suspended, bearing full effects.
Under such circumstances the Company applies the provisions of article 17 para 5 of ANRE Order 116 / 2013 for mutual receivables and liabilities accrued after the insolvency procedure, meaning withholding the bonus due to CET Govora SA up to the concurrence of amounts related to the support scheme that were not paid to the Company.
The lower balance of "asset suppliers" on 31 March 2022 against 31 December 2021 was due to payments reaching due dates.
The liabilities to "suppliers of other activities" are mainly represented by liabilities related to services provided by third parties which did not reach due dates, but are higher compared to 31 December 2021.

They comprise the revenues which were obtained by the Company's provision of transmission and system services on the electricity market, allocating the interconnection capacities, balancing market operation services and other revenues.
Tariffs approved by ANRE for services provided on the electricity market in quarter 1 2022 and quarter 1 2021 were as follows:
| Average transmission tariff |
System service tariff | |
|---|---|---|
| Order 124/25.11.2021 for 01 January – 31 March 2022 |

| Order 214/09.12.2020 for 01 January – 28 February 2021 |
20.55 | 11.96 |
The average electricity transmission tariff has two components: tariff for electricity injection into the grid (TG) and tariff for electricity extraction from the grid (TL).
Zone tariffs of transmission services introducing electricity in the grid (TG) and extracting electricity from the grid (TL) were approved by ANRE Order 124/2021 beginning with 01 January 2022.
The electricity quantity delivered to consumers, where tariffs were applied for services provided on the electricity market was the following:
| Q I 2022 | Q I 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Electricity quantity delivered to consumers (MWh) | 14,345,315 | 14,925,052 |
Operational revenues achieved in quarter 1 2022 and in quarter 1 2021 were as follows:
| Q I 2022 | Q I 2021 | |

| System service revenues – total | 134,061,493 | 173,209,505 |
| Balancing market revenues | 665,038,635 | 220,223,106 |
| Other revenues | 12,611,174 | 10,281,649 |
| Total revenues | 1,230,503,431 | 726,315,024 |
They registered increase in amount of 37,030,699 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021, as determined by higher average transmission service tariffs approved by ANRE (according to the fore-mentioned ANRE-approved tariffs in previous time periods) when the electricity quantity delivered to consumers decreased 3.88%, namely 579,737 MWh.
They increased in amount of 59,201,594 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021 as corresponding to the utilisation of available interconnection capacities by traders on the electricity market.
The market allocating the interconnection capacities is fluctuating and prices develop depending on the demand and need of electricity market participants to procure interconnection capacity. The increase during the studied period was due both to the unit electricity price grown in all the European Union, determining a great price difference between coupled markets and to the electricity deficit registered Europe-wide. Implicit allocations provide capacity and electricity simultaneously and are strongly influenced by the electricity price variations on European exchanges.
The allocation mechanism of interconnection capacities consists in organising annual, monthly, daily and intraday bids. The annual, monthly and intraday bids (only on the Serbian border) are explicit as only the transmission capacity is auctioned, while the daily ones (Hungarian and Bulgarian borders) are implicit and capacity is simultaneously allocated with electricity through the coupling mechanism.
Since beginning with 19 November 2014 a regional power exchange was established by Romania, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, the assumption is to have these four countries reaching to a single electricity price transacted on spot markets. Capacity allocation between Romania and Hungary, the only country of the other 3 Romania has frontier with is carried out by transporters: Transelectrica and MAVIR by common mechanism under a bilateral agreement. On 17 June 2021 Romania's Day-Ahead Market began operating under European coupling mechanism, having once implemented the DE-AT-PL-4M MC project, also known as Interim Coupling; thus the Romanian - Hungarian border was integrated into the single day-ahead markets coupling (SDAC). Beginning with 27 October 2021 the Romanian - Bulgarian frontier was integrated into the single day-ahead markets couplin (SDAC), and the cross-border capacity between Romania and Bulgaria is implicitly allocated.
Beginning with 2016 the UIOSI principle was implemented on the Bulgarian border and from 2017 onward on the Serbian border as well. In accordance with such principle market participants that do not use the capacity they had won at annual and monthly bids are remunerated (by Transelectrica) for this capacity. The unused capacity is later sold under daily bids.
Beginning with November 2019 the 2nd wave was launched under the single European solution for intraday markets coupling (SIDC – Single Intraday Coupling). The single intraday markets coupling mechanism provides continuous harmonisation (matching) of sale and purchase offers from market participants of a bidding zone with the sale / purchase offers within their own bidding zones and any other bidding zone where cross-border capacity is available. Thus, explicit intraday bids are performed only on the Serbian border, being implicit on the Bulgarian and Hungarian frontiers (within SIDC).
Net revenues from the allocation of interconnection capacities are utilised in accordance with the provisions of ANRE Order 171/2019 and of Regulation (EU) 943/2019 regarding the internal electricity market as financing source of investments to upgrade and develop the interconnection capacities with neighbouring systems.
Such CPT transaction revenues were mainly achieved by selling the excess electricity on the Intraday Market managed by OPCOM and by BRP CIGA ENERGY on the Balancing Market. Such revenues were smaller by 357,919 in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Such revenues registered decrease in amount of 39,081,226 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021 as determined both by a diminished tariff approved by ANRE for such services (according to the fore-mentioned ANRE-approved tariffs in previous time periods) and by the 3.88% reduced electricity quantity delivered to consumers, namely by 579,737 MWh.
Technological system service activities have got specific regulatory framework, which contains regularising mechanisms that compensate the revenue excess or deficit compared to the expenses necessary to carry out such activities. Thus, in accordance with ANRE's regulations, the revenue surplus / deficit compared to recognised costs resulting from these activities will be compensated by ex-post (negative/positive) tariff correction applied by ANRE into the tariff of years following that when such surplus / deficit was recorded. The revenue surplus / deficit against costs resulting from such activities are calculated during tariff scheduling periods.
They increased in amount of 444,815,529 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021, mainly determined by the following issues:
Revenues, namely expenses related to scheduled electricity exchanges (FSKAR-FCP-EU) and unplanned electricity exchanges (FSKAR-EU) are registered under balancing market revenues, namely balancing market expenses taking into account the changed settlement rules for imbalances on the electricity market, as the scheduled and unplanned electricity exchanges are integrated into the settlement mechanism of the balancing market;
Mention should be made the International Grid Control Cooperation (IGCC) is the project selected in 2016 by ENTSO-E to become the future European imbalance netting platform, as defined in the Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1485 of 02 August 2017 establishing a guideline on electricity system operation (article 22). The IGCC initiative was launched in 2010 by German operators and later was extended in central European systems, representing an optimisation of the frequency-control power secondary control by reducing the contrary actions of regulators of member operators, thus resulting an optimised utilisation of the Frequency Restoration Reserve with automatic activation (aFRR), overall.
The regulations implemented in the national legislation according to the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and Council of 5 June 2019 regarding the electricity market, the settlement made at 15 minutes', the application of the single settlement price on the balancing market, the European development context of the electricity market, the development of CO2 certificate prices and the management of Covid-19 spreading country-wide had and will still have significant impact on the balancing market revenues / costs.
The regulatory framework specific for balancing market administration contains regularising mechanisms that compensate the revenue excess or deficit compared to the expenses necessary to carry out such activities. Thus, in accordance with ANRE's regulations the non-null monthly balances (revenue surplus / deficit) resulted from these activities will be compensated by means of ex-post (negative / positive) tariff correction, which ANRE applies to the tariff of years following that when such balances were recorded.
Expenses made in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 were as follows:
| Q I 2022 | Q I 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Expenses regarding one's technological consumption | 255,366,490 | 93,444,473 |
| Congestion expenses | 157,055 | 177 |
| Expenses for electricity consumption in RET substations | 11,783,383 | 6,017,688 |

| Inter TSO Compensation (ITC) expenses | 6,236,501 | 5,378,925 |
| Total operational expenses | 273,543,429 | 108,746,319 |
| Expenses regarding technological system services | 121,301,215 | 143,061,438 |
| Balancing market expenses | 657,086,973 | 212,154,838 |
| Total | 1,051,931,617 | 463,962,595 |
They are expenses made to purchase electricity from the free electricity market, namely the Centralised Market of Bilateral Contracts (PCCB), the Day-Ahead Market (DAM), the Balancing Market (PE) and the Intraday Market (PI) in order to cover one's own technological consumption (CPT / losses) within RET.
Such expenses regarding one's technological consumption were higher by 161,922,017 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021 taking into account some issues such as:
Congestions (network restrictions) are electricity transmission demands beyond the technical capacity limits of the network, requiring corrective actions of the transmission system operator; they occur whenever, during operation scheduling or real
time operation the power flow between two system nodes or zones leads to incompliance with the security parameters in the operation of a power system.
In the fist quarter of 2022 congestion expenses amounting to 157,055 were recorded, mainly determined by:
CNTEE Transelectrica SA has to procure electricity to cover the consumption for auxiliary services in high voltage electricity substations managed by the Company, with a view to provide safe electricity transmission in electric substations and secure operation of the National Power System (SEN).
Such expenses grew by 5,765,695 the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021, increase owed to higher electricity procurement prices, as well as to the legislative changes applicable as of 01 July 2021, namely the provisions of ANRE Order 82/2021.
They represent monthly payment obligations / collection rights of each transmission system operator (TSO). Such expenses are established under the compensation / settlement mechanism for the effects of using the electricity transmission network (RET) for electricity transits in-between TSOs of the countries that have adhered to such ENTSO-E mechanism. In quarter I 2021 ITC expenses were 857,576 higher compared to the same period of last year.
The Company procures such services from generators with a view to provide secure SEN operation and qualitative electricity transmitted at parameters required in technical applicable norms, based on the needs established by the National Power Dispatcher (organisational unit of the Company) that is responsable for the stable secure operation of SEN.
Such services are procured both under competitive and under regulated regime (according to the Decisions issued by the National Regulatory Authority in Energy) in case of reactive electricity reserves.
Technological system services are procured under competitive regime by means of daily auctions according to the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and Council of 5 June 2019.
In the first quarter of 2022 technological system services were contracted under regulated regime only for reactive electricity according to ANRE Decision 1078/2020, being provided by the Company Generating Electricity in Hydropower Plants Hidroelectrica SA.
Expenses regarding technological system services decreased in amount of 21,760,223 in quarter 1, 2022 compared to quarter 1, 2021. Procurement prices of system services on the competitive market in quarter 1, 2022 were around the following values:
Also in quarter 1, 2022 a high concentration was manifest on the technological system services market for secondary reserve (RS).
For the following intervals of 2022 estimations are technological system services will be procured by daily auctions per direction according to the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/943 of the European Parliament and Council of 5 June 2019, while the developments of ANRE's regulatory framework for electricity procurement will have significant impact on the costs to procure system services within CNTEE Transelectrica SA.
Such expenses made in quarter 1, 2022 amounted to 657,086,973 and were 444,932,135 higher than those made in quarter 1, 2021. These expenses result from the notifications / achievements of market participants .

In the first quarter of 2022 such expenses diminished in amount of 15,241,239 compared to the first quarter of 2021, mainly determined by the variation of certain expense items such as:
Certain provisions constituted for disputes were resumed into revenues;
Certain expense items were diminished, such as: OAVT expenses paid under enforceable court rulings (performance bonus associated to OAVT Certificates granted to former executive and non-executive members and not capitalised by them, remuneration according to mandate contracts concluded in 2013 – 2017), tax and charge expenses, fines and penalties under existent disputes, etc.;

On 31 March 2022 the Company registered net financial result (loss) amounting to 2,092,934 which is 711,574 higher than that recorded in the same period of 2021. It was mainly mainly influenced by interest rates applied during the studied interval, but also by the development in the exchange rate of the national currence against foreign currencies the Company has contracted bank loans to finance its investment programmes.
On 31 March 2022 in the total amount of 1,672,751 (interest expenses) 291,549 represent interest calculated for assets representing rights of use under a lease - buildings according to the provisions ofIFRS 16 – Leasing contracts.

The managerial team regularly analyse the ongoing disputes, and after consulting with legal representatives decide the need to create provisions for the amounts involved or their mention in the financial statements.
Taking into account the existing information the Company's management believes there are no significant ongoing disputes in which the Company is defendant, except for the following ones:
On the docket of Mehedinti Tribunal, Civil Section II, Administrative and Fiscal Disputes Section file no. 3616/101/2014 was recorded, involving the "claims in the amount of 1,090,831.70, value of invoice no. 1300215/31.12.2013", a file in which the Company is defendant and claimant - the National Authority for Nuclear Activities RAAN.
Civil ruling 127 pronounced on 10 October 2014 by Mehedinti Tribunal admitted the request filed by claimant RAAN and ordered CNTEE Transelectrica SA to pay the amount of 1,090,831.70 Lei, the value of invoice 1300215/31.12.2013.
The Company filed appeal and requested the Law Court to decide in the ruling to be pronounced to admit the appeal as filed, to cancel the decision and sentences appealed against, refer the case to the territorial competent court for judgment, and to ascertain fulfilment of requirements from articles 1616-1617 of the Civil Code, reason for which it was also required to declare the occurrence of mutual debts compensation and their redemption up to the smallest amount among them, namely the total amount requested by the claimant in the application for summons, ordering the appeal - claimant to pay the expenses made with this appeal.
The appeal was registered on the docket of the High Court of Cassation and Justice that decided to reverse decision 843/2015 and to remand the case for retrial to the same court, the Appeal Court Craiova.
Ruling 124/2017 of the Appeal Court Craiova admitted the appeal filed by Transelectrica and cancelled sentence 127/2014 pronounced by Mehedinti Tribunal, while the case was referred for retrial to Bucharest Tribunal, Section VI Civil. On the
Notes to the stand-alone interim financial statements as of 31 March 2022 (All amounts are expressed in LEI, unless otherwise provided)
docket of the Bucharest Tribunal the case was registered under no. 40444/3/2017 which by civil ruling 4406/04.12.2017 admitted the request filed by RAAN and ordered Transelectrica to pay the amount of 1,090,831.70 Lei. The sentence was appealed against. Hearing term was established on 13.12.2018.
In 2014-2015 the Company withheld for payment the bonus owed to RAAN under the support scheme according to the provisions of ANRE regulations, namely article 17 para 5 from Order 116/2013 of ANRE president.
Under such circumstances RAAN calculated penalties for late payment of the due cogeneration bonus amounting to 3,496,914, withheld from the payment by the Company on account of non-cashed receivables. The Company refused paying the amount of 3,496,914 and did not register it as liability in the support scheme.
File 9089/101/2013/a152 pertains to contesting the additional Receivables Table against debtor RAAN, the litigated amount being 89,360,986 Lei.
Transelectrica SA was recorded in the table of debtor RAAN with only 11,264,777 Lei, under receivables resulting from continued activities of such debtor but the amount the Company requested was 89,360,986 Lei. The sum of 78,096,209 Lei was not registered in the preliminary receivables table because "it does not appear as owed amount in the accounting books of RAAN". Moreover the judiciary liquidator considered the request to register in the table the sum of 78,096,209 Lei has been executed late as it pertained to 2011 – 2013, for which reason the receivable statement should have been made when the insolvency procedure had been instituted, namely on 18.09.2013.

Thus file judgment was postponed because the court considered it useful for case settlement to submit Civil ruling 2969/26.09.2018, pronounced by the High Court of Cassation and Justice under file 3014/2/2014, with respect to cancelling decision 743/2014 of ANRE President.
The settlement of Mehedinti Tribunal by Ruling 163 / 20.06.2019 was: It admitted the exception of decline. It partly admitted the main issue and associated contestation. It compelled defendant RAAN to pay to claimant Transelectrica the amount of 16,950,117.14 Lei accrued during the procedure, judging to record it in the creditors' table constituted against debtor RAAN. The other associated demands were denied. In accordance with article 453 para 2 from the Civil Procedural Code it compelled the defendant to pay 1000 Lei law court expenses to the claimant.
