Roles

Role nameRole typeRole descriptionFinal customerBusiness

As defined in Article 2(3) of Directive (EU) 2019/944.

This refers to a party connected to the grid that purchases electricity for its own use. Note: this also includes the case of active customer and participants of renewable energy communities or citizen energy communities.

Competent authorityBusinessA competent authority could be a public or private entity in a Member State.Eligible partyBusinessAn eligible party is an entity offering energy-related services to final customers, such as suppliers, transmission and distribution system operators, delegated operators and other third parties, aggregators, energy service companies, renewable energy communities, citizen energy communities and balancing service providers, as far as they offer energy related services to final customers;Metered data administratorBusinessA party responsible for storing validated historical metering and consumption data and distributing these data to final customers and/or eligible parties.Metering point administratorBusinessA party responsible for administrating and making available the characteristics of a metering point, including the registrations of eligible parties and final customers linked to the metering point.Data access providerBusinessA party responsible for facilitating access, including in cooperation with other parties, to validated historical metering and consumption data to the final customer or to eligible parties.Permission administratorBusinessA party responsible for administering a register of data access permissions for a set of metering points, making this information available to final customers and eligible parties in the sector, on request.Identity service providerBusiness and/or SystemA party that manages identity information; issues, stores, protects, keeps up to date, and manages identity information for a natural or legal person and provides authentication services to eligible parties and final customers.Meter operatorBusiness and/or SystemA party responsible for installing, maintaining, testing, and decommissioning physical meters.Smart meterSystem

An electronic metering device deployed within a smart metering system as defined in the Article 2(23) of the Directive (EU) 2019/944.

Note: Such a smart metering system is supporting the functionalities described in Article 20 of Directive (EU) 2019/944.

Near real-time data consumption systemSystem

A system or device that obtains the flow of non-validated near real-time data from a smart metering system as referred to in Article 20, first subparagraph, point (a) of Directive (EU) 2019/944.

Note: this could be for example an energy management system, in-home display or another device.

All roles of type Business are expected to be acting in secure, authenticated manner and through trusted communication channels. For this reason, the authentication steps used for these communication partners are not listed in the procedures listed below. These are access to validated historical metering and consumption data by the final customer, access to validated historical metering and consumption data by an eligible party, termination of service by an eligible party, revocation of an active permission by the final customer, activate near real-time data flow from smart meter or smart metering system, and read near real-time data from smart meter or smart metering system.

In the procedure access to validated historical metering and consumption data by an eligible party, as detailed in Table III.2, future data covered by a permission (but still within the permission period) is treated differently from already available data. The latter means data that is already available at the metered data administrator at the time the permission is given, whereas future data means data that is covered by the permission but not available at that point in time and in most cases because it is made available in the future. In the procedure that involves access to validated historical metering and consumption data by an eligible party, described in Table III.2, access to historical and future data is shown as a unified procedure. In mapping of national practices, these two cases may be described as separate procedures.

The reference model for the provision of non-validated near real-time data, as shown in procedure 5 in Table III.5 and in procedure 6 in Table III.6, is based on the functional reference architecture for smart metering defined in standards1. This functional reference architecture specifies a generic representation of smart metering infrastructures used in Member States. It defines the so-called H1, H2 and H3 interfaces that may be used for the provision of non-validated near real-time data. However, the same standards and data items may be employed whichever interface is used. Some meter operators also offer remote access to such data. Procedures 5 and 6 are implementation-neutral with respect to the access method provided.

For the provision of non-validated near real-time data through a standardised interface where applicable, Member States shall have due regard for the use of relevant available standards, including standards that enable interoperability. Without prejudice to future developments, standards currently available and in use in national practices at the time of publication of this Regulation, include the following (this is a non-exhaustive list):

EN 50491-11

EN 62056 series – DLMS/COSEM

EN 13757 series – Wired and Wireless M-bus

It is recommended that at the end of step 6.3, attributes of information object P must be available in a form that can easily be used in the follow-up processes. When mapping this step, it is not enough to refer to a standard - descriptions of all necessary steps must be provided exhaustively.
