III.6.1.

Where can I find a list of  mandatory reportable contracts?

Answer: The scope of the mandatory reportable contracts is laid down in the Article 3(1) of the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/2014. Mandatory reportable contracts form two groups:

(i) contracts on the wholesale energy products in relation to the supply of electricity or natural gas with delivery in the Union, including derivatives relating to electricity or natural gas produced, traded or delivered in the Union; and

(ii) contracts on the wholesale energy products in relation to the transportation of electricity and natural gas in the Union, including derivatives relating to the transportation of electricity or natural gas in the Union.

Under the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/2014, the Agency is required to draw up and maintain a public list of standard contracts and update that list in a timely manner. The purpose of the list of standard contracts is to specify the supply contract types for which the standard reporting form is applicable. The creation of the list of standard contracts does not mean that there would be an intention to assign unique identifiers to the contracts listed, nor will the information collected be used for matching against the transaction reports. The only purpose of the public list of standard contracts is to display the characteristics of each contract type for which the standard reporting form is applicable.

For detailed information please see Article 3(1) and (2) of the Implementing Regulation here: https://www.acer.europa.eu/remit-documents.

The list will be published for the first time 17 March 2015 here https://www.acer-remit.eu/portal/standardised-contract.
