Since 2018, France’s main Distribution System Operator (DSO) Enedis runs, maintains and operates a data hub, supporting eligible parties and customers with structured data access. Enedis are featuring a portal and a REST-based API utilizing OAuth authentication and authorisation. Authorization to share data is given on an application basis, meaning that consumers do not give their consent use-case by use case, but they rather unlock their data based on catalogues. Eligible parties create “applications” during an onboarding process and can then request access to the following data:
- Contractual Data (Données contractuelles)
- Identity (Identité)
- Daily Production (Production quotidienne)
- Daily Maximum Consumption (Puissance maximum de consommation quotidienne)
- Half-hourly Consumption (Consommation par demi-heure)
- Address data (Adresse)
- Daily Consumption (Consommation quotidienne)
- Contact Information (Données de contact)
- Half-hourly Production (Production par demi-heure)
Basically, an application redirects the user to an Enedis page requesting the list of needed privilieges. Once the user accepts the privileges, the user is redirected back to a website of the eligible party’s choice.
