Member involvement and stakeholder engagement are the two ingredients allowing ENTSO-E to deliver with high quality. Each year, ENTSO-E organises a survey to collect feedback from its stakeholders. Compared to the last survey, ENTSO-E's stakeholder satisfaction has gone up by almost 4%. Also the response rate this year was the highest ever registered. This increase in satisfaction and participation is of course a great achievement for the association.

By 2030, at least 75 billion devices will be connected to the internet generating 75 trillions gigabytes of data. From 100 000 in 2015, there could be 18 million full electric vehicles in Europe by 2030 as charging becomes more widely available and cities invest in smart & clean mobility. In electricity, all consumers should by then be equipped with smart meters.
This report addresses the needs for data exchange in the emerg- ing power system and discusses data exchange models, firstly providing an extensive overview of the existing solutions and setting criteria for them in a second step. Data exchange plat- forms have been introduced in many European countries, driven by a need for efficient processes and better data quality, initially in retail markets. Recent regulatory developments mandate in- creased cooperation and aim to empower customers to partici- pate actively in both the retail and wholesale energy markets, thus further increasing the requirement for data exchange between all stakeholders. Hence, future data exchange platforms can take on a role in the overall power system and point towards an integrated wholesale-retail market. The report concludes with an outlook on possible development trajectories in data exchange.

“Fairer prices and more choice for European energy consumers”, this is the goal of the energy liberalisation and market integration. Network codes, jointly developed by the European Commission, the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) and the European Network for Transmission System Operators for gas and electricity, (ENTSOG and ENTSO-E), with the key involvement of stakeholders, provide European answers on technical and market issues. By the end of 2017 they will all be adopted. It is time to look into achievements but also the implementation and monitoring challenges. A joint conference is organised in Brussels to celebrate this common achievement and to discuss the next steps.
