Transmission system operators shall keep a daily log of actual aggregated flows for at least three months.
Transmission system operators shall keep effective records of all capacity contracts and all other relevant information in relation to calculating and providing access to available capacities, to which relevant national authorities shall have access to fulfil their duties.
Transmission system operators shall provide user‐friendly instruments for calculating tariffs for the services available and for verifying on‐line the capacity available.
