Under the provisions governing requests for mutualisation of connection works for consumers and distribution system operators (DSOs) to the transmission system (CRE deliberation No. 2024-200), RTE referred the matter to the French Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE) in order to obtain its decision on the implementation of mutualised connection facilities in the Le Havre, Dunkerque and Plan de Campagne areas. The CRE has approved the creation of these three mutualisation areas. The characteristics of each area can be consulted via the map of mutualisation areas published by RTE.

In accordance with Article D342-27 of the French Energy Code, all connection requests to the transmission system in these areas that directly or indirectly benefit from the connection capacity provided by this set of facilities, and that have not yet been formalised through a connection agreement, fall within the corresponding reference connection operation with mutualised extension.

As a result, RTE will contact the relevant applicants in order to revise the contractual terms of their connection, as impacted by this decision.

For further information, please contact the commercial representative in charge of your connection project.
