Time to act?

If your company exchanges power schedule messages with the German TSOs Amprion, 50 Hertz, TransnetBW or TenneT, you are a balance responsible party and affected by the changes outlined below:

Starting latest 01.04.2024 you need to be able to receive the MaBiS EDIFACT messages (MSCONS, PRICAT), which are currently sent to you by encrypted and signed email, via AS4 Protocol. There will be no alternative channel to receive those messages.

Latest by 01.12.2024 your power schedule message exchange (ESS) with the TSOs must be switched from encrypted email to AS4 as well. This applies to all scheduling messages (Schedule, Acknowledgement, Confirmation, Anormally Report).
