This contract assigns to the buyer the management of imbalances, in addition to the supply of a series of energy management services such as production forecast, daily transmission and definition of offers to the energy markets; the final accounting, reporting and collection of revenues from the sale of energy, the management of all the economic items to the markets, the network provider and the local distributor, the withdrawal of the Guarantees of Origin and REMIT reporting.
