Statnett's revenues
Statnett's reported revenues consist of grid tariffs from the main grid customers as well as congestion revenues. Congestion revenues arise as a result of transmission of power from low-price areas to high-price areas in the Nordic region and between Norway and the Netherlands. Grid tariffs are stipulated prior to each calendar year.
The revenues are determined and controlled by the authorities through the The Norwegian Energy Regulatory Authority (NVE-RME) and an annual permitted revenue is stipulated. The intention is to set the permitted revenue at a level that allows Statnett to cover the costs of grid development and maintenance, and provides a fair return on grid investments, assuming that the transmission grid is operated, utilised and developed in an efficient manner.
If the actual revenues diverge from the permitted revenue, higher or lower revenue will occur. In accordance with regulations from the The Norwegian Energy Regulatory Authority (NVE-RME), higher/lower revenue should be evened out over time through adjustment of future grid tariffs. Consequently, the higher/lower revenue represents temporary amounts in Statnett's reported figures. The adjusted figures exclude these temporary amounts to show the underlying revenue. No other adjustments have been made to the reported IFRS accounting.
