Step

Description

The community’s participation in energy community calculations

The energy community and the member accounting points are taken into community calculations from the start of occurrence of the community.

Energy community information for member accounting points

If members are added to or removed from the community, the energy community information is updated in the accounting point information of those members (the community information is either added or removed accordingly).

Origin of information

Information stored

Information reported by the party

All reported information is stored in Datahub.

Information processed by Datahub

Information on the participation of the community and its member accounting points in energy community calculations.

Energy community information for the community’s member accounting points.

DSO

Notification of a successful or rejected update of energy community.

ACK

Supplier

The updated accounting point information is reported to the suppliers associated with the community’s accounting points at the effective time of the update as specified.

DH-122-2

Third party

The updated accounting point information is reported to third parties associated with the accounting points at the effective time of the update as specified with consideration to the parties’ rights to information on the reported start of occurrence.

DH-122-3

The calculations are based on wrong accounting point information.

The energy community must be valid on the update date notified in Datahub.

EC.ECY.105

The energy community belongs to the reporting distribution system operator.

EC.ECY.107

The surplus calculation method cannot be changed with an update event.

EC.ECY.108

The accounting point to be reported to the energy community is recorded in Datahub and is valid on the agreement start date. 

EC.MPT.115

The member consumption accounting point reported to the energy community is not in the ‘Removed from use’ status or ‘Deleted’ on the date the community enters into force.

EC.MPT.167

All accounting points in the energy community are part of the same metering grid area.

EC.ECM.101

The metering grid area must be recorded in the system and belong to the reporting distribution system operator.

EC.MPT.168

The member accounting points reported for the energy community cannot already be part of another energy community.

EC.ECM.100

The member accounting points reported for the energy community cannot be in the community twice.

EC.ECY.109

The energy community has at least two member consumption accounting points.

EC.ECM.102

The energy community has at least one member small-scale production accounting point.

EC.ECM.102

One accounting point, the sub-type of which is not ‘Virtual’, must be reported as the energy community’s surplus production accounting point.

EC.ECM.103

If a small-scale production accounting point reported as an energy community member has a related accounting point, that related accounting point cannot be part of another energy community.

EC.ECM.105

If the energy community’s surplus calculation method is SMA, the sub-type of no member accounting point reported to any community may be ‘Virtual’.

EC.ECY.110

If the surplus calculation method of the reported energy community is SMB, the reported member consumption accounting point must have a related small-scale production accounting point, which must also be reported as a member of the same energy community. (The distribution system operator must, if necessary, create an accounting point of sub-type ‘Virtual’ using event DH-121 before creating an energy community.)

EC.MPT.169

The shares of the member accounting points in the community must add up to 100%.
