To reflect the new electronic format and to facilitate the reporting of contracts for the transportation of natural gas under the Regulation on Wholesale Energy Market Integrity and Transparency (REMIT), the following guidance documents on REMIT transaction reporting were also updated:

  • Annex III.IV to the MoP on Data Reporting (Data fields for gas transportation data reporting);
  • Annex V.IV to the MoP on Data Reporting (XML Schema for Gas Transportation Contracts);
  • Chapter 7 of the TRUM v5.2;
  • Chapter 4 of the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on REMIT transaction reporting;
  • ACER REMIT Information System (ARIS) Data Validation Document; and
  • ARIS Data Validation Rules Configuration Document.

All updated documents are available on the ACER website. The TRUM and the FAQs on transaction reporting are also available in the REMIT Knowledge Base.

Reporting parties are expected to comply with the updated electronic format and transaction reporting guidance within six months of their publication (i.e. by 17 October 2023 at the latest). The older version will be retired at the same time.

ACER thanks all stakeholders who tested the new electronic format and provided their feedback.
