III.4.4.

Should the TSOs report  fundamental data to the Agency directly, or through the ENTSOs’ platforms? Is there an overlap between data sent by TSOs directly to the  Agency and through ENTSOs?

Answer: Article 8(5) of REMIT indicates that the reporting obligations on market participants shall be minimised by collecting the required information or parts thereof from existing sources where possible. For this reason, fundamental data is reported to the Agency through:

(i) ENTSO-E in line with Article 8(1) and (2) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/2014; and

(ii) ENTSOG in line with Article 9(1) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/2014.

TSOs are required to report the fundamental data defined in Articles 8(3) and 9(2) of the same Implementing Regulation.

Taking into consideration the above division of reporting, there should be no overlap between data sent by TSOs directly to the Agency and through ENTSOs.
