Expert report “Effiziente Netztransformation: Stärkung der Energiewendekompetenz durch Leistungs-Skalierungs-Elemente (LSE) für eine nachhaltige Energiezukunft” published

The German regulatory authority Bundesnetzagentur intends, as part of the new incentive regulation regime, to create incentives for improving the energy transition competencies of electricity network operators. E.ON SE had already proposed an incentive instrument at an early stage, aimed directly at the development and industry-wide provision of necessary solutions by highly competent network operators, thus promoting efficient cooperation within the industry. Consentec, together with PWC, has elaborated and assessed this instrument called LSE in detail in an expert report for E.ON. It could be introduced in addition to the indicator-based instrument planned by Bundesnetzagentur in order to provide targeted short-term impulses for accelerating and improving the efficient transformation of electricity networks.
