Many projections of near-future electricity system foresee a constantly increasing necessity power flexibility services. In particular, thanks to the growing presence renewable generation and innovative load technologies, distribution resources are becoming attractive productsin ancillary services markets. order open market gates flexibility, constant interactions between transmission operators required European project SmartNet is investigating in detail possible coordination schemes among these two actors. The paper describes simulator, one main tools developed within project, whi ch precisely estimates impact TSO -DSO from bidding clearing perspective, taking into account consequent effects on network physics at both level.
