Levy under Section 19 of the Electricity Network Charges Ordinance (StromNEV)
Thanks to the Section 19 StromNEV levy, companies can agree to a reduced individual grid fee or even an exemption from grid fees under certain conditions. A distinction is made between companies with special or grid-stabilising usage behaviour (atypical or electricity-intensive grid usage) and companies with systems that produce hydrogen through water electrolysis.
The regulations for applying for the individual grid fee are contained in Section 19 (2) sentences 1 and 2 of the Electricity Network Charges Ordinance (StromNEV). The regulation on exemption from grid fees is included in Section 118 (6) EnWG. Settlement of costs under these regulations is based on the Section 19 (2) StromNEV levy mechanism.
Transmission system operators (TSOs) are obliged to reimburse downstream distribution system operators for lost revenue as a result of individual grid fees or the exemption from grid fees. The TSOs must compensate each other for these payments and their own lost revenues. The lost revenues are allocated on a proportional basis to all end consumers (“EC”) as a surcharge on grid fees. This Section 19 StromNEV levy is shown as a separate amount in cents per kilowatt hour on electricity consumers’ bills.
The TSOs determine and publish the Section 19 StromNEV levy for the following calendar year on their shared website by 25 October of each calendar year.
