The Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Library contains all the documents and definitions approved by ENTSO-E for the harmonisation and implementation of standardised electronic data interchanges.

Working Group EDI is responsible for the maintenance of all implementation guides concerning information interchange produced by ENTSO-E.

For any maintenance request concerning ENTSO-E documentation or guide, please use the ENTSO-E maintenance request form.

The implementation guides contained in this section are one of the building blocks for using UML-based (Unified Modelling Language) techniques in defining processes and electronic documents for interchange between actors in the electrical industry in Europe.

The guides are generally targeted towards business-to-business application interfaces using the full power of the acknowledgment process. However, it may be equally put into place in a more user-orientated fashion through a web-based service where the key elements of the acknowledgement process are implicit in the service itself.

For general information on Electronic Data Interchange, please see the EDI Info Page within the Market section of the website.
