The electricity grid is prominent in energy transition debates, including the press, as Europeans take up solar panels, electric cars, heat pumps, and other clean tech. For consumers it is obviously important to be able to connect these to the grid. People should also be able to use electricity flexibly to make use of moments when prices are lower. This should benefit the grid and keep costs for its development in check. Households pay for the electricity grid via network tariffs. These should not disproportionality burden households versus other users of the grid. Finally, innovation in grid technology brings opportunities and challenges: this requires careful monitoring by regulators.
