• - capacity safeguarded for Rolling Planning requests (see chapter 4.9.2);
• - (if available) Unplanned capacity.

The capacity model is published at X-21 in draft and at X-18 in final form in ECMT (https://ecmt- online.rne.eu ).

4.9.3.2.1 Capacity Needs Announcements The Capacity Needs Announcements (CNAs) are a new means by which the applicants may contribute to the advance capacity planning. For now, RNE is developing the way to elaborate the new phases of the CNA, which is why it was decided to temporarily suspend the application of these processes for the 2028 train schedule.

4.9.3.3 Capacity Supply The Capacity Offer represents a refined Capacity Model resulting in a precise allocation for different types of capacity and different types of requests, depending on the moment of their submission. The Capacity Offer includes:

• - the infrastructure capacity available to be allocated to applicants;
• - the infrastructure capacity non-available to be allocated to applicants.

For the 2024/2025 Timetable, for consultation purposes, the applicants will receive a draft Capacity Supply before its final publication, according to the timeline set out in Annex 18 and the procedures set out in paragraphs 4.5.1, 4.5.2 and 4.5.3 of the NS.

4.9.3.4. Feasibility Study Applicants can submit Feasibility Study requests from X-15 at the earliest. In case of an international request, the study will be elaborated jointly by the concerned Infrastructure Managers. Feasibility Studies can be requested due to various reasons, including e.g., path study of new traffic, published Capacity Supply does not provide enough information to the Applicant etc. Feasibility Studies shall in principle not lead to a revision of Capacity Partitioning (please see 4.9.3.2). For best results, it is recommended that Applicants use the Path Coordination System (PCS (https://pcs- online.rne.eu) requesting Feasibility Studies. The detailed description of the Feasibility Study requests can be found in the Handbook for Procedures for Feasibility Studies: https://rne.eu/wp-content/uploads/hb_feasibility_studies_1.0_2021-12-07_2.pdf
