Making electricity cheaper: Modernising taxes and levies to incentivise electrification of industrial heat RAP experts Sem Oxenaar and Tom Butler look at the state of electricity and gas prices for industry and the impact of reducing taxes and levies.

The future energy bill is an electricity bill.

This is why we must 'Make Electricity Cheaper' for households, businesses and industry.

In our 3rd paper at RAP on this topic, Tom Butler & I look at reducing tax & levies added to electricity prices for industry.

⚡ Europe’s clean energy transition can only move as fast as its electricity grids.

But outdated regulation and limited oversight are slowing things down. RAP and @beyondfossilfuels.bsky.social propose two urgent reforms for national governments to make grids fit for the energy transition.👇

Aligning business models with public interest — Rethinking revenue regulation for network companies: A Power System Blueprint deep dive This Power System Blueprint deep dive examines how revenue regulation needs to evolve to better align with both consumer interests and climate goals.

New in the Power System Blueprint: "Aligning business models with public interest" by @patozsu.bsky.social.

Revenue regulation needs to evolve to serve both consumers and climate goals. Smarter use of existing grids can cut costs and reduce the need for large-scale buildout.

How can we electrify industrial heat and at the same time unlock valuable flexibility for the grid? Electro-thermal energy storage (ETES) might just be the answer:

How to unlock benefits from smart EV charging: Key lessons from a global study This global guide from RAP summarizes key insights from four case studies to estimate the benefits of smart EV charging.

Smart EV charging isn’t just a tech upgrade. It’s also a cost-saving, emissions-cutting tool that benefits drivers, grids and the planet.

Read our latest report on the subject, "How to unlock benefits from smart EV charging: Key lessons from a global study."

www.raponline.org/knowledge-ce...

The German grid fee debate is mostly about distributional effects while the problem is the missing cost reflexivity. The methodology to address an affordable grid infrastructure can supported by the long-run marginal cost pricing.

Dynamische Netzentgelte müssen zur Grundlage werden, damit wir die bestehenden Netze optimal nutzen und somit unnötige Kosten für alle Netzkunden vermeiden können.

💡 New from RAP: “Why wait for the next energy crisis? Enjoy the benefits of flexibility today.”

The U.S. can take a cue from the EU, where recent policies have driven a 250% increase in residential smart tariffs.

Shawn Enterline, @vermontdcf.bsky.social and @jaapburger.eu explain:

Flexible Netzanschlussverträge wirken, zumindest in den Niederlanden. Wann ziehen die deutschen Netzbetreiber nach?

FLEXIBILITY FOR ALL: Since Apr 1 2025, all distribution network operators in Germany are required to offer variable grid fees for controllable consumers (think heat pumps, EVs, batteries).

Animation illustrates this for a typical day.

Red: high tariffs
Blue: low tariffs

Electric vehicles can help power grids and save money in Europe. 🚗🔌 #SmartCharging

With the @regassistproj.bsky.social, we launched a new study on the cost savings of smart charging for power grids in Europe.
