III.3.50.

Are contracts for the guarantees of origin to be reported under REMIT data reporting obligation?

Answer: Contracts related to the guarantees of origin are assimilable to contracts related to green certificates. As indicated in the 6th edition of the ACER Guidance on the application of REMIT, it is ACER’s understanding that such contracts are not considered to be related to wholesale energy products, as they do not fulfil the requirements set out in Article 2(4) of REMIT and are thus not reportable under REMIT. The same applies to contracts related to emission allowances.
