Preface USAID’s Energy Investment Activity project is supporting Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) in its efforts to increase investments in the energy sector and to advance the accession process related to energy sector requirements. In particular, the Energy Investment Activity project aims to address impediments to increased investments in the energy sector, to address retail market deficiencies, to achieve energy savings in BiH using regulatory incentives and to advance EU accession requirements in the energy sector. In order to assist the electricity sector in BiH to make further necessary steps toward the establishment of a fully transparent retail electricity market, USAID funded the technical assistance project, Energy Investment Activity (EIA), with component 2 “Address retail Market Deficiencies in BiH.” EIA proposed the constitution of a Market Working Group (MWG) and pertinent subgroups: • Subgroup 1 – deals with activities related to development of DSO rules and processes • Subgroup 2 – deals with activities related to the development of Electronic Data Interchange Assistance to work of Subgroup 1 resulted in the report “Draft Guidelines for Development of the Business Processes for DSO as Independent Market Facilitator.” This report dealt with development of an information model and outline of business processes linked with the role of the DSO as independent market facilitator; the report is expected to serve as a guideline for development of the rulebook1 and other legal documents that should cover business processes associated with DSO market roles. In continuation of the work, as a result of assistance to the efforts of Subgroup 2, this report – Guidelines for Electronic Data Interchange (hereinafter EDI) report has been prepared. EDI can be described as computer to computer exchange of business documents in standard electronic format within a business process between different parties. Using as an input international best practices from one side and a developed information model and business processes2 from the other side, EDI infrastructure is reviewed and recommendations specified. This report considers the actual situation in BiH3 related to existing EDI between key electricity retail market players. As a result, the report suggests options and specifies recommendations that should facilitate development of technical standards for EDI. The review and analysis EDI for the traditional role of the DSO (for example: network operation, maintenance, development, etc.) is not a subject of this document, as these processes are already well covered with existing material. 1 This rulebook will be developed by the working group and shall contain rules with business processes that relate to DSO market roles. 2 Based on “Draft Guidelines for Development of the Business Processes for DSO as Independent Market Facilitator” document. 3 Key interested parties in retail market have unanimous opinion that development of EDI and related IT systems is required

Map of European Time Zones 27 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to help inform public debate on the prospect of Jersey adopting Central European Time (CET). The key questions to consider are – 1. Would the benefits outweigh the disadvantages of moving an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening and entering into synchronicity with Central Europe? and, 2. Would the benefits of such a change outweigh the disadvantages of moving out of synchronicity with the United Kingdom, Ireland and Portugal? A summary table of anticipated benefits and disadvantages is provided below along with the corresponding page numbers in the text. Consideration Benefits Disadvantages Page Number Quality of Life Moving an hour of daylight Negative impact of lower from the morning to the amount of daylight in the evening will allow people to winter mornings.

  • Discontinuing Seasonal Change of Time
    BRIEFING EU Legislation in Progress Discontinuing seasonal changes of time OVERVIEW To end the biannual change of clocks that currently takes place in every Member State at the end of March and the end of October, on 12 September 2018 the European Commission adopted a proposal to discontinue the seasonal changes of time in the Union. The President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, presented the initiative in his State of the Union address as an issue of subsidiarity, underlining that 'Member States should themselves decide whether their citizens live in summer or winter time'. The initiative, which would repeal existing provisions governed by Directive 2000/84/EC, proposes a timetable to end seasonal clock-changing arrangements in a coordinated way, in order to safeguard the proper functioning of the internal market and avoid the disruptions that this may cause, for instance, to the transport or communications sectors. As the Council has decided that a proper impact assessment should be conducted before it can reach a political agreement, the file is due to be closed at first reading, with a vote in Parliament’s plenary in March 2019 on the TRAN committee’s report. Proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and the Council discontinuing seasonal changes of time and repealing Directive 2000/84/EC Committee responsible: Transport and Tourism (TRAN) COM(2018) 639 Rapporteur: Marita Ulvskog (S&D, Sweden) 12.9.2018 Shadow rapporteurs: Pavel Svoboda (EPP, Czech Republic) 2018/0332(COD) Kosma Złotowski (ECR, Poland) Izaskun
