30. Update on network regulation in Germany
Start of incentive regulation: Several issues still open
Formally, incentive regulation has started January 1st 2009.
However, only E.ON Energie’s gas distribution network operators have so far received final revenue caps.
The power distribution network operators will probably receive their final revenues caps in the coming
weeks.
Currently, it is unclear when our power transmission system operator E.ON Netz will get the final revenue
cap. There are intensive discussions regarding the allowance of increased costs for system services.
Average efficiency scores for E.ON Energie’s network operators are close to 100%, well above the industry
average of ca. 93% in power and ca. 88% in gas.
As a result, E.ON expects to see stable to slightly rising network charges during the first period of
incentive regulation, as the scheduled annual cuts should be broadly offset by inflation.
Regulation of gas transmission
BNetzA has decided to disallow market-oriented network charges in gas transportation. E.ON
Gastransport appealed against the BNetzA’ disallowance decision.
After the BNetzA’s disallowance of market-oriented network charges in gas transportation E.ON
Gastransport had to file for the first time for cost-orientated network charges at the end of 2008. It is
currently unclear when BNetzA will issue a final approval. There shall be a switch to incentive regulation in
2010.

In December 2008 Russia‘s prime-minister
Suspension of power market reform
Putin confirmed there will be no delay
Surgutskaya 2 and Berezovskaya (73% of
Significant erosion of power demand total capacity) are in regions with stable
growing demand
Lower than expected prices & spreads Reserve margins in particular regions still
expected to tighten
State interventions Market is at an early development stage,
and selective fine-tuning is normal
Capacity market uncertainty Adequate capacity payments for new
capacities are expected
