WHAT IS REMIT

Regulation (EU) № 1227/2011 on wholesale energy market integrity and transparency (REMIT) is an EU Regulation adopted in 2011 which aims at establishing common rules on all European electricity markets thus supporting open and fair competition on the European wholesale energy markets.

REMIT prohibits any insider trading and market manipulation thus guaranteeing trust in the operation of this market, protecting market participants and consumers’ interests and promoting market integration.

Article 8 of the Regulation sets the obligations related to data collection and stipulates that each market participant has to report to the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) the detailed data about the transactions and orders performed by them with wholesale energy products, including the price, volume, date and time of the transactions.

Implementing Regulation (EU) № 1348/2014 specifies the wholesale energy products data which are subject to reporting and the way they are collected, including the reporting periodicity.
