REMIT ACTIVITIES

REGULATION ON ENERGY MARKET INTEGRITY AND TRANSPARENCY (REMIT)

Regulation (EU) No 1227/2011 (REMIT) establishes rules prohibiting abusive practices affecting wholesale energy markets and providing more transparency regarding price- relevant (inside) information. It provides for the monitoring of wholesale energy markets by the Agency for the Cooper- ation of Energy Regulators (ACER) in close collaboration with national regulatory authorities. The goal of REMIT, through strong cross-border market monitoring, is to detect

and avoid market manipulations and to facilitate the com- pletion 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.
