REMIT Inside Information Platform:

Re­por­t in­side information effectively

According to REMIT Regulation (EU) No. 1227/2011 companies must report their inside information to ACER via an Inside Information Platform. That includes market participants without plants or with plants < 100 MW.

With the EEX Inside Information Messenger you can effectively disclose your inside information via the EEX Transparency Platform.

REMIT stands for Regulation on Wholesale Energy Market and Integrity and Transparency.

ACER REMIT Update:
Since 1 January 2023, backup reports of inside information are no longer permitted on the company’s own website, according to ACER.

REMIT Update Guidelines / FAQ - What is new?

Regulation (EU) 1227/2011 on the integrity and transparency of the wholesale energy market (REMIT) establishes mandatory reporting obligations for market participants in the electricity and gas market.

On 19 July 2019, the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators – ACER – updated its guidelines for the application of REMIT. According to these guidelines inside information pursuant to Article 4 REMIT is only effectively disclosed if it is published on a central platform (“Inside Information Platform or IIP”). 

What will change for the market participants?

Many companies now publish their inside information on their own company website. However, since 1 January 2021, reporting via their own website no longer complies with the ACER requirements. Accordingly, notifiable information must be disclosed via a so-called Inside Information Platform (IIP). Market participants without plants or with plants < 100 MW must also report market-relevant information via an Inside Information Platform.

When registering as a market participant in the Centralised European Register of Energy Market Participants (CEREMP), companies must indicate where they publish their inside information, regardless of whether any information subject to future reporting requirements under Article 4 REMIT exists.

FAQ

Platzhalter (ausgeblendet)

What is inside information?

Inside information – often referred to as urgent market message (UMM) – is precise information that is not public knowledge and which, if it became public, would probably have a significant impact on energy market prices. Further explanations are available on the ACER website.

The REMIT regulation does not define thresholds here. Market participants must therefore decide for themselves whether the information is inside information. Tip: If in doubt, disclose information.
