Grid development

Abbreviated form of legal source

Electricity Act 1998

Procedure

Plant operators are not contractually entitled to grid capacity in the same way as they are entitled to grid access. In case the grid becomes unable to provide the necessary grid access, the regulatory authority may alert the Minister of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy who in turn may request the grid operator to develop the grid in order to offer the necessary capacity (art. 22 Electricity Act).
