A pre-auction is an auction of rights to offer capacity obligation in capacity auctions for capacity market units consisting of physical cross-border units.

Pre-auctions are organised separately in regard for each of the zones i.e.:
• CZ/DE/SK - synchronous profile zone comprising transmission systems of 50Hertz, TransnetBW, Amprion, TenneT, ČEPS and SEPS
• LT – transmission system of Litgrid
• SE - transmission system of Svenska Kraftnät
Pre-auctions are conducted electronically via PURM, after the Regulation referred to in Article 34 of the Capacity Market Act enters into force, but no later than 2 weeks before main certification. The date and time of beginning and end of each pre-auction shall be published by PSE on its website and in PURM, no later than 7 calendar days in advance.
