Energy management law: urgent measures for network security required!

Vienna, Österreich - A massive conversion of domestic energy supply is imminent! The planned new special levy for electricity generators could strain the domestic e-economy with over 200 million euros more than originally thought. This reports vienna.at , while the government is struggling for an agreement. A draft for the law is to be decided next Friday, but there are concerns with the ÖVP and NEOS, as the "press" emphasizes. The Vienna SPÖ is also uncomfortable because the municipal Vienna energy is the largest gas power plant operator in the country.

urgent changes in energy management law

The pressure to avoid temporary generation surpluses is becoming increasingly stronger. According to Bundesag.de , a bill to amend energy management law is already supported by experts on January 15, 2025. These measures are both necessary for the continuous expansion of photovoltaic systems and important for network security. The remuneration of renewable energy systems must also be adjusted in times of negative prices in order to guarantee a more stable and secure power supply.

The experts agree: the amendment to the law is essential for system stability and avoidance of electricity tips. The chairman of the network operator 50hertz, Stefan Kapferer, emphasizes that effective price signals and control options in the power grid are necessary to prevent future blackouts. In view of the exponential increase in photovoltaic systems, the Federal Association of Energy and Water Management also calls for the necessary measures to be implemented in this legislative period- without this blooms a massive problem with the network stability!
