How tariff rates are determined

All network activities are regulated as a natural monopoly in Norway. Among other things, this means that Statnett, as the network owner, must set annual tariffs for the central grid.
On the basis of its statutory authority as set out in the Norwegian Control Regulations, the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) determines how much we can collect through tariffs each year. This amount is called the revenue ceiling.
Based on the rules set out in the Norwegian Control Regulations, Statnett has prepared a tariff model that describes how we calculate the amount each customer should pay to the central grid each year.
The sum of the tariff payments collected from customers must correspond with the revenue ceiling set by the NVE.
The tariff model and rates are presented to and discussed with the customer organisations before they are adopted by Statnett’s Board of Directors. Statnett must publish the tariffs for the year to come before 1 October.
