ERE Decision 268/11.09.2026, KER registration

A renewable energy community (KER) has to be on the ERE register before it uses the rights in the ministry instruction. This page is that registration procedure.

The header of the PDF says the ERE board approved it with Decision No. 268, 11 September 2026. The title on the file still says Projekt-Rregullore. The English text here is a TradingDesk explanation.

Official source: the attached ERE regulation. It sits under Law 59/2026, Law 24/2023 article 21, and Ministry Instruction No. 4 of 29 June 2026.

What registration is. The legal representative files the registration form with ERE. Registration is an administrative listing. It is a separate step from any license the law still requires for production, supply, transmission or distribution.

Papers named in the file. Statute and founding act, the agreement with the system operator for use of the grid, a description of the activity (production, consumption, storage, sharing, sale, aggregation), a description and a map of the plant, the planned start date, and proof that the registration fee was paid. A community above 100 kW also files a five-year business plan with a technical and financial assessment. Members sign the declaration in Annex 2. The fee amount is the one ERE approves. It is not printed as a number in this explanation.

Clocks in this regulation. ERE checks whether the file is complete within 10 working days. If something is missing, the applicant has 20 working days to complete it. ERE then approves or refuses, with reasons. After approval, ERE gives a unique registration number within 3 working days and puts the community on the electronic register. The community counts as registered when the board has approved it and it is on that register.

What the public register shows. Name, registration decision number and date, seat and contact details, number of members, production capacity, and status: active or suspended. Personal data and confidential commercial information stay off the public register.

After registration. The community tells ERE within 30 calendar days if the organisation, membership, legal representative, production capacity or contact details change. It sends the yearly report by 31 January, as Instruction No. 4 already requires.

Suspension. ERE can suspend the active status if the legal conditions are no longer met, reports are missing, the data are wrong, a check is blocked, market rules or grid codes are broken, or another duty in this regulation is broken. ERE notifies the community first and gives at least 7 calendar days to explain or fix the issue. While suspended, the status reads suspended, and the community cannot use rights that depend on an active registration. It can ask to return to active status. ERE reviews that request within 15 working days. If the conditions are not restored, ERE can remove the community from the register, with notice at least 3 working days before that decision.

Board decisions under this regulation can be appealed under the law in force.

Use this when a community is created on TradingDesk. The platform record is not the ERE register. The community needs the ERE registration number before it operates.
