Market Information
We publish some of the information we collect from Retail Energy Market (REMM) in the form of monitoring reports that aim at increasing transparency over the retail energy markets. The quarterly REMM Transparency Reports (QREMM) and Annual REMM Transparency Reports (AREMM) provide a range of information about the retail energy market in Northern Ireland. This includes data on switching rates, market shares, and energy prices. The data included in these reports comes mainly from network companies, energy suppliers, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and Eurostat.
We publish updated electricity prices biannually within the Quarterly REMM Transparency Reports (QREMM). The electricity prices are published using the same format and methodology as the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). As a result the average prices for Northern Ireland are comparable with prices in other EU countries (those published in DESNZ Quarterly Energy Prices reports and Eurostat data base).
The base figures are all submitted on a quarterly basis by suppliers, split by domestic and non-domestic (I&C). The UR performs a high level reasonableness check of the base figures, but the suppliers are responsible for the accuracy of the information that is provided to the UR.
