EDX (Energy DataCollective term for all forms of digital data related to the production, distribution, and consumption of energy. Exchange) is ENTSO-EEuropean Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity - collaborative body for European TSOs coordinating joint grid operations and regulations.'s platform for structured exchange of energy data between European TSOs and system operators. EDX handles the collection, validationThe first step in VEE - automated checks of metering data against technical and logical limits to detect obviously erroneous values., and distribution of power system data - primarily network models in CGMESENTSO-E's European profile of CIM - the narrowed format TSOs actually use to exchange grid models across borders. format (CIMCommon Information Model - IEC standard for semantic modeling of the electricity system, the basis for data exchange between TSOs across Europe./RDFResource Description Framework - W3C standard for describing resources and their relationships as triples, the foundation for semantic web and CIM data exchange in the energy sector./XMLExtensible Markup Language - universal markup language for structured data, standard in Elhub's Ediel messages.), capacity data, and system statistics that form part of ENTSO-E's transparency platform and European system planning. EDX is used in combination with ECPEnergy Communication Platform - EU-standardised interface for secure data exchange between actors in the European power market. (Energy Communication Platform) as the transport layer. Through EDX, TSOs can report and receive network models used in coordinated capacity calculation (Flow-Based Market Coupling) and pan-European system security assessment. For the Norwegian electricity sector, EDX is StatnettNorway's system operator for the transmission grid - owns and operates the high-voltage network and operates Elhub.'s 'gateway' to the European power system on the data side.
