Feeding / Acceptance Withdrawal (consumption)

Consumption:Amount of energy consumed (natural gas or
Electricity or natural gas may be taken from and/or fed into the distribution system from an access point. The extraction corresponds to the purchase of electricity and/or natural gas on the distribution system.The feed-in corresponds to the surplus of energy that the distribution system user generates himself, but does not consume for his own purpose, but feeds into the distribution system.
Geographical sector The geographical sectors correspond to the areas of the former inter-municipal communities before the merger. These are territorial subdivisions of ORES Assets, which include some shareholders (affiliated municipalities and financial inter-municipalities) by geographical area.
The following link will take you to the list of municipalities allocated to the geographical sector. https://www.oresassets.be/en/areas of activity-and-sectors

A place is a territorial unit of definite or indefinite area that is generally inhabited. A municipality generally refers to a city with surrounding villages or a single central village with surrounding hamlets. The term "place" refers to these municipal subdivisions.

Number of access points The access point refers to the point on the distribution network where electricity or gas is extracted or fed and which is identified by a unique EAN code.

EAN European Article Numbering. Unique identification code of an access point (delivery point). This code shall be communicated by the DSO to the customer concerned.

Consumption (MWh) Calculated value of energy consumption related to the extracted energy volume, which is then reduced to the calendar year/calendar month. These roughly estimated consumption values are calculated monthly. MWh : Symbol for megawatt-hour, unit of measure of energy corresponding to the power of a megawatt active for one hour.

Remaining exception category GDPR measures : If there are less than 3 access points (1 or 2 access points) per activity area and geographic sector, they will be joined together to form our "EXC" code. This rule is applied so that the consumption of the individual users of the network cannot be derived from the figures.
