CEER fit for innovation through Dynamic Regulation
- Regulatory sandboxes
- “Classic regulation tools” such as incentive regulation and interconnection issues for islands not yet interconnected to mainland.
- Widening and innovating the participation/consultation of market participants in the process.
- Pilot projects, Pilot regulations and regulatory experiments.
Country | Example |
---|---|
Austria | Setting the functional requirements of smart meters in ordinances. |
France | Selection of market participants to test innovative products or services with adapted regulatory requirements. |
Germany | Digital Agenda for the Energy Transition (SINTEG) |
Italy | The pilot regulation on flexibility services (UVAM) and Regulatory experiments of Distribution System Operators (DSOs) |
Lithuania | Introduction of The Energy Innovation Pilot Environment. |
The Netherlands | Launching a regulatory sandbox to allow communities and home owner associations to apply for legal exemptions. |
UK | Launching an Innovation Sandbox Service. |
Reflecting the experience of the recent pandemic with its massive changes in all areas of life, CEER is designing its new strategy which also includes a further development of Dynamic regulation.
