Publication under the Energy Industry Act (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz - EnWG)
The act's aim is, among other things, to use regulated grid access to ensure effective competition among electricity providers and guarantee the long-term, high-performing and reliable operation of energy supply grids.
The act provides publication obligations of structural features and network-relevant data, which we make available below.
Due to the amendment of the Energy Industry Act (EnWG) as well as the StromNEV and StromNZV of August 10, 2021, we have compiled all relevant data in accordance with Section 23c Paragraphs 1 and 3 EnWG on this page.
