REMIT Hub: Setup, Go-Live & Maintenance Checklist
Overview
This guide covers the key steps to report successfully through the GEN REMIT Hub, whether you report your own trades to ACER/ElCom, submit mirror reports on behalf of your counterparties, or both.
Use it as a reference throughout your journey with GEN, from initial setup and testing to go-live and ongoing reporting operations. It outlines the key responsibilities, routine checks, and resources that help you maintain accurate and timely reporting.
You have access to both Staging and Production. Staging is used to test your integration and reporting workflows, while Production is used for live reporting.
Each checklist item indicates who is responsible:
- [Your team] – Action for your team
- [Fidectus] – Action for Fidectus
- [Joint] – Action for both teams
Your Fidectus Customer Success Manager can help clarify any questions about the setup, reporting processes, or ongoing use of GEN.
