Calling EIT InnoEnergy supported assets that need electricity metering data of different countries and solve a clear limitation or shortcoming in the energy market.
Background
Energy data is becoming an increasingly important base for a well-functioning deregulated and unbundled electricity market.
So far the European member states have implemented different schemes to make data available nationwide in order to improve the competition, for example:
providing affordable energy
boosting innovative new market players that are unlocking energy saving opportunities
integrating new resources into the market
So far, these initiatives mainly take place on a national basis.
Energy Data Access Alliance
In order to expand on knowledge and experience from other countries, for example Estonia, the initiative Energy Data Access Alliance has been initiated by a number of European TSOs and DSOs.
The initiative will expand the electricity market across European boarders, taking a step towards a Europe wide retail and Energy Service market.
The initiative was launched as a European wide pilot, and is open for to actors in the electricity market.
