Question 8680 — energy and fuels

Summary

By decision dated May 18, 2018, the Council of State accepted in principle the existence of regulated electricity sales tariffs in that they make it possible to guarantee a stable price of electricity. However, it judges that this intervention by the State does not respect European law in that it is not proportionate: - taking into account the permanent nature of the regulated prices and the absence of periodic review of their necessity ; - in that they apply to all end consumers whose subscribed power is less than or equal to 36 kVA, in particular small non-residential sites belonging to large companies. As a result, it canceled the pricing decision of July 27, 2017 for the sites of large companies. The Government will draw the consequences of the decision of the Council of State by changing the legislative and regulatory framework regulated tariffs for the sale of electricity to exclude the sites of large companies from benefiting from tariffs and provide for the terms of a periodic review of their necessity, in accordance with the decision of the Council of State. These modifications will be carried out in consultation with the stakeholders concerned and consumer associations.
