EdielNordic profile of the EDI EDIFACT standard - used for electronic message exchange in the Nordic power market via Elhub. messages split into two families with distinct responsibilities. The E-messages cover customer and grid processes: E01 supplier switchProcess where an electricity customer changes their power supplier - handled through standardised messages via Elhub., E02 cancellation, E03 grid connectionThe process of connecting a new facility to the electricity grid and registering it as a metering point in Elhub., E06 disconnection, E65 customer information. The RSM messages cover metering dataData from electricity meters - the foundation for billing, balance settlement and market processes in the power market. and settlementTurning metering data into money. Consumption and production per metering point become what each party owes or is owed., and in the Norwegian ElhubNational hub for metering data and market processes in the Norwegian electricity market. context the three central ones are RSM012 for hourly values, RSM016 for daily values and RSM017 for monthly values. The distinction is more than naming: the two families have different rhythms and different failure profiles. E-messages are event-drivenArchitecture principle where system components communicate via events rather than direct calls - increases loose coupling and scalability. state machines where one message triggers a sequence of timed replies, while RSM messages are high-volume and periodic - arriving every day, for every metering pointThe fundamental unit in Elhub - the unique point in the electricity network where energy is measured and settled, identified by an 18-digit GSRN number., in large batches.
