Disputes, inspections, and sanctions
We also resolve disputes between agents. We audit the obligations of agents operating in the energy markets and open sanctioning cases for those failing to comply. In addition, we act as an arbitration entity when requested to do so by energy operators in application of Spain's Law on Arbitration, or when we are required to do so by law within the scope of our authorities.
Disputes
We resolve disputes that arise in relation to contracts involving access by third parties to transport networks, and when applicable, distribution networks, as well as disputes that may arise in relation to economic and technical management of the system and the transport, including connections between facilities.
