Grid development

Abbreviated form of legal source

ELTS

Procedure

The law does not specify a procedure to be followed by the plant operators. When connecting a new plant to the grid, for ensuring security of supply and functioning of the grid, the grid operator is obliged to upgrade the grid if such update is necessary for technical reasons. The costs of such upgrade have to be borne by the plant operator/developer in question. Therefore, the plant operator/developer and the grid operator have to liaise between them on this matter.
