– Not to be engaged, during the term of the Agreement, by a third party to market excess production, Guarantees of Origin, or Capacity on energy markets. This condition is required to ensure the consistency and effectiveness of the optimization services offered by Symphonics.
Symphonics reserves the right to deny the Customer access to all or part of its Service if the Customer does not meet all of these eligibility requirements; or if Symphonics determines that the Indoor Installation is likely to pose a hazard or is dangerous to the safety of persons and property. In such cases, Symphonics will notify the Customer in writing of the refusal and the reason for it, without the Customer being entitled to any compensation whatsoever.
ARTICLE 4: DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES PROVIDED
4.1 Purchase of surplus electricity
Symphonics purchases from the Customer any surplus electricity generated by a power generation facility that has not been consumed on the PDL (self-consumption) and is fed into the Enedis RPD in accordance with the Enedis RPD Terms of Service. This service is not compatible with the signing of a surplus purchase agreement with a third party. Termination of a surplus purchase agreement, if any, is possible under the terms set forth in said agreement and is the sole responsibility of the Customer. By subscribing, the Customer expressly designates Symphonics as the Certification Perimeter Holder and Manager (“RPC”) and holder of the load reduction and generation capacities, in order to enable the management of the certification of these capacities and their monetization on the markets. The energy produced by the Equipment and fed into the RPD may be associated with a Guarantee of Origin. Under the Contract, the Customer designates Symphonics as the sole beneficiary of the Guarantees of Origin generated when the surplus is fed into the grid. The facility may be registered in the electricity Guarantees of Origin registry referred to in Article L. 311-20 of the Energy Code. To this end, Symphonics may communicate, in the name and on behalf of the Customer, the data concerning the Customer, collected in the course of the performance of the Contract in accordance with the terms described in Article 14 and mentioned in Article R. 314-64 of the Energy Code, to the following parties: Electricity TSOs and DSOs (or their umbrella organizations) and the body responsible for issuing Guarantees of Origin referred to in the aforementioned Article L. 311-20. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that, in this context, they may be contacted directly by Symphonics, the network operators, their umbrella organization, or the certification body, solely for purposes related to these regulatory procedures.
4.2 Inclusion in the balancing area
The Parties agree that the performance of the Contract is directly contingent upon the connection of the Customer’s Production Site to the Balancing Area of Symphonics or its subcontractor. Symphonics therefore undertakes to comply with the procedures enabling such connection or disconnection within the timeframes and in accordance with the rules of the network operators in force. In particular, the Parties shall comply with the provisions of Article L. 321-15 of the Energy Code, which stipulates that each electricity producer is responsible for any imbalances between injections and withdrawals from the grid. This responsibility may be transferred to a balance manager by contract, or assumed by a party that has entered into a contract with such a manager. Under the Agreement, Symphonics shall assume responsibility, either directly or through a duly authorized Balance Manager, for the imbalances related to the Customer’s Generation Site. In the event of a failure by the relevant balance manager, and subject to applicable provisions, Symphonics undertakes to appoint a new Balance Manager without delay, in accordance with the aforementioned Article L. 321-15.
4.3 Equipment Control
When the Customer subscribes to the Offer, a service to optimize the scheduling of the Equipment is also provided to the Customer to optimize their self-consumption and take into account the proposed rate—including the “off-peak hours” in their supply contract—the Customer’s electricity generation, and the carbon intensity of the electricity. To reduce the Customer’s electricity bill and carbon footprint, Symphonics calculates and implements the Equipment’s scheduling to shift its consumption: activating the Equipment to consume or store the surplus electricity generated by the installation during off-peak hours, following a signal from the Enedis or RTE grid, or based on prices in the electricity markets (NEBCO, intraday markets, in particular the Balancing Mechanism). In this regard, the Customer expressly agrees that Symphonics may temporarily halt the Equipment’s production during periods when the EPEX Spot Day Ahead Price is strictly below €0/MWh, based on a signal from the Balancing Mechanism or in accordance with regulations governing photovoltaic generation facilities. At any time, the Customer may suspend the suggested scheduling of their Equipment—without this constituting a decision to terminate the contract—by pressing the button available on the control device or via the mobile app used to control the device. The Customer is informed that all or part of the services may be integrated into the tools made available by the manufacturer or the remote control service provider for the Equipment. The Customer expressly agrees that any changes relating to the Equipment (addition, removal, or modification), when such information is provided by the manufacturer or the remote control service provider, may be incorporated into the Contract without requiring an amendment, provided that such changes do not result in a substantial modification of the financial terms or the essential obligations of the Parties. Furthermore, the Customer acknowledges that the Service may be suspended or terminated in the event that the Equipment’s remote control service provider decides to suspend or terminate control of the Equipment or to prevent its operation. Symphonics shall not be held liable in this regard, except in the event of fault, breach of contract, or failure to perform its own obligations. The Customer agrees that Symphonics may carry out and monetize operations to shift the Equipment’s consumption throughout the term of the Contract, in accordance with the laws and regulations relating to distributed load response and the applicable market rules (NEBCO, intraday markets, in particular the Balancing Mechanism) available from the TSO (RTE – https://www.services-rte.com/). In this regard, the Customer expressly authorizes Symphonics to collect, process, and transmit the data strictly necessary for the implementation of this service (technical information, injection, consumption) or for audit and control purposes by the network operators (RTE, Enedis), in compliance with the GDPR. The Customer designates Symphonics as the sole beneficiary of the rights related to the monetization of flexibility in energy markets (NEBCO, intraday markets, Balancing Mechanism, among others) and irrevocably waives any rights in this regard for the duration of the Contract. The Customer agrees that any changes to the laws and regulations relating to Distributed Load Response and market rules shall automatically apply to this Agreement as of the date they take effect, without the need for an amendment.
4.4. Collective Self-Consumption
In the event that Symphonics has access to a Collective Self-Consumption scheme, as defined by Article L. 315-2 of the Energy Code, for the Customer’s installation, the Customer authorizes and instructs Symphonics to register its PDL within the Collective Self-Consumption loop without this affecting the provisions, and in particular the pricing terms, of the Contract. The Customer will then be notified in writing of their registration in the Collective Self-Consumption loop.
4.5. Energy Consulting Services
During the term of the Agreement, Symphonics will provide the Customer with information regarding the energy performance of its premises and/or Equipment. At the Customer’s request, additional consulting services may be offered as a paid option.
ARTICLE 5: RELATIONSHIP WITH ENEDIS
As an electricity distribution system operator (DSO), Enedis is responsible for ensuring the delivery of electricity while maintaining the quality and safety of the grid. It is also responsible for meter reading and, more generally, for electricity metering, including the supply, installation, metrological control, maintenance, and replacement of metering devices, as well as for data management and all tasks related to these activities. The Contract incorporates the essential terms governing the relationship between the Customer and Enedis, which are appended to these General Terms and Conditions. This is the document titled “Summary of General Provisions Regarding Access to and Use of the Public Distribution Network” by the DSO Enedis, available on the website: www.enedis.fr. These terms are derived from the GRD-A and GRD-F contracts entered into between Symphonics and Enedis to enable access to the network for all current and future Symphonics Customers. If the Customer maintains direct contractual relations with the DSO pursuant to this appendix, the Customer may still contact Symphonics for any request. Symphonics is the Customer’s primary point of contact for the performance of the contract. In the event of a conflict between the various documents, the provision most favorable to the Customer shall prevail. By accepting these Terms and Conditions, the Customer expressly authorizes Symphonics to retrieve from the DSO (Enedis) and the TSO (RTE) its technical metering data, their consumption history and consumption at 15-minute intervals, their production history and production at 15-minute intervals, to analyze their consumption and production, enhance statistics, and issue invoices in accordance with regulatory provisions regarding the confidentiality of information held by electricity DSO and TSO.
