Introduction to REMIT – Online Workshop

In this workshop, participants will explore the main concepts of the Regulation on Wholesale Energy Market Integrity and Transparency (REMIT) and their significance in ensuring fair and transparent wholesale energy markets. The programme will cover key topics, including the purpose, scope, and actors of REMIT, the concept of inside information and the prohibition of insider trading and market manipulation, with examples of manipulative practices. The main obligations established by REMIT on market participants and persons professionally arranging and executing transactions (PPAETs) will also be discussed. Through engaging discussions and practical insights, attendees will deepen their knowledge of the basics of market integrity and transparency principles and regulatory compliance.

The workshop is organised in the context of the training course REMIT and its implementation, but it’s also open to external participants. For the course participants, attendance at the workshop is optional and is included in the course fee.
