ERE regulation, closed distribution systems (2017)
ERE regulation on how a distribution system is classified as closed. Official Albanian text, approved 27 July 2017. This is about a private industrial or commercial grid, not about ALPEX day-ahead trading.

Why it matters
A factory park, an industrial site or a shared commercial area can run its own small grid. ERE calls that a closed distribution system. It is not the public DSO, and it is not an ALPEX product.
If a TradingDesk customer sits behind such a grid, the meter point, the license and the imbalance duty may sit with the closed-system operator, not with OSHEE.
How it works
Official source: the attached PDF, approved by ERE Board Decision No. 110, 27.07.2017, under Ligji nr. 43/2015. TradingDesk explanation: ERE uses this text to classify the system, keep a register and revoke the status.
Interesting topics in the file: what counts as a closed system (limited industrial, commercial or shared-services area, not household supply), ownership and connection/metering with the public DSO, the application papers, the ERE distribution license for the operator, and that the operator is responsible for imbalances like other market parties.
The file still cites Ligji nr. 43/2015. Law 59/2026 came later. Some thresholds in the scan are written as placeholders. Do not treat a 2017 number as live without a later ERE act.

TradingDesk context
Keep under Licensing. If a site is inside a closed system, check who holds the meter and the BRP duty before you nominate it as a normal OSHEE customer.
