The EIC is the in_Domain / out_Domain value for ENTSO-E Transparency Platform queries against this zone. Verify it against the ENTSO-E EIC registry before relying on it: several countries publish aliased bidding-zone, control-area and market-balance-area domains, and the correct one depends on what is being asked for.
