EIC Allocation
AGGM as a Local Issuing Office (LIO) is entitled to allocate EICs (Energy Identification Codes). This European scheme was implemented to ensure a distinct and effective transfer of data. An EIC is therefore always allocated to a specific object (system operators, trader, market areas, etc.). AGGM allocates the following EIC types, that can all be requested via the online form:
-
X-Codes: to identify BGRs. Companies with a seat in Austria can apply for an EI X-Code at AGGM. Companies outside of Austria must contact a national LIO.
-
Y-Codes: to identify BG and Sub-BG.
-
Z-Codes: to identify metering points.
-
W-Codes: to identify production, storage, or consumption facilities.
-
T-Codes: to identify connecting objects (e.g., network connections or transformers).
-
V-Codes: to identify a physical point where a natural or legal person or their IT system is located (e.g.: network node).
-
A-Codes: to identify substations.
