COURSE ORGANISATION

This online course is offered as Module 2 of the Series on REMIT Implementation - Level B: Specialised Course.

Staff from National Regulatory Authotities (NRAs) need expertise to carry out monitoring activities of the wholesale energy markets at national level according to REMIT. As part of this, NRA staff need to understand REMIT’s provisions as well as market abuse behaviours, investigation and enforcement procedures, interactions with financial market regulation and anti-trust regulation. This will help facilitate effective cooperation to ensure compatibility and consistency in the application of measures dealing with potential market abuse and their enforcement in energy markets.
