Energy Identification Codes (EICs)
An Energy Identification Code (EIC) represents a unique code that is assigned to all participants in the domestic and European electricity market, as well as to all facilities that are part of an electricity transmission system (overhead lines, generation units, substations, meters). EICs are assigned for the purpose of unambiguous identification of registered participants or facilities and must be unique in the European electricity market.
The Local Issuing Office (LIO) for issuing EICs in the territory of Montenegro is CGES. To assign an EIC, it is necessary to fill in the application for the issuance of an EIC and send the completed application electronically to This email address is being protected from spambots.
