REGULATION ON ENERGY MARKET INTEGRITY AND TRANSPARENCY (REMIT)

Regulation (EU) No 1227/2011 (REMIT) establishes rules prohibiting abusive practices affecting wholesale energy markets. It provides for the monitoring of wholesale energy markets by the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regu- lators (ACER) in close collaboration with national regulatory authorities. The goal of REMIT, through strong cross-border market monitoring, is to detect and avoid market manipula-

tions and to facilitate the completion of a fully functioning, interconnected and integrated internal energy market.

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/2014 stipulates the information that shall be reported and defines the rules to be followed by the market participants with re- gards to their REMIT reporting to ACER.
