ABSTRACT
The following contribution aims at explaining BNetzA’s role in energy
infrastructure regulation and planning/permitting of high-voltage electricity
nationwide and cross-border transmission lines. It shows the interplay of the
two main regulatory instruments and the planning/permitting task as well as
more generally the changing role of the regulator in the era of energy
transition. The article is based on two presentations on the topic, one at the
VIIth WFER in Mexico in March 2018 and one at a conference on “The Governance
of Maintenance and Investment in Infrastructures” of the University of
Paris-Dauphine in April 2018.
KEYWORDS
