Interoperability of energy services within and across EU Member States is essential to support the establishment of a truly internal energy market with well-functioning retail markets. This can be facilitated via the convergence and, as far as possible, alignment of national practices when it comes to the efficient exchange of data, and easy access to accurate and timely information. Interoperable procedures for data access and exchange not only can reduce costs through improved customer processes, but they are also expected to render retail energy markets more competitive: - it should become easier for energy suppliers to become active in other Member States, through compatibility of national data access and exchange practices as well as data management models (lower market barriers), - customers are given tools and options to get empowered and actively participate in the energy market (flexibility and energy services). The aim of this fact-finding exercise has therefore been to map the EU 28 Member States' practices regarding the format and procedures in place concerning data access and exchange, for electricity and gas, in accordance with Annex I.1(h) of the Electricity 2009/72/EC and Gas 2009/73/EC Directives, while also bearing in mind the principles of the Energy Union Strategy (COM[2015] 339 final) and the Clean Energy for All Europeans Package (COM[2016] 864 final/2, in particular Articles 19, 20, 23 and 24). The findings from this study are meant to also serve in the current reflection on the potential for convergence of the respective national practices on the way to facilitating the interoperability of energy services within the EU.
