55However, it should be recalled that Regulation 2015/1222 is an act implementing Regulation 2019/943, as is apparent from Article 18(5) of Regulation (EC) No 714/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 on conditions for access to the network for cross-border exchanges in electricity and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1228/2003 (OJ 2009 L 211, p. 15), which was subsequently replaced by Regulation 2019/943. Regulation 2019/943 is therefore a law that is higher ranking than and subsequent to Regulation 2015/1222. Except where their meaning is clear and unambiguous and therefore requires no interpretation, the provisions of an implementing regulation must be given, if possible, an interpretation consistent with the provisions of the basic regulation (judgment of 28 February 2017, Canadian Solar Emea and Others v Council, T‑162/14, not published, EU:T:2017:124, paragraph 150). Article 74 of Regulation 2015/1222 must therefore be interpreted consistently with Article 16(13) of Regulation 2019/943.
