Wijziging van de Elektriciteitswet 1998 en de Wet belastingen op milieugrondslag ter uitvoering van de afbouw van de salderingsregeling voor kleinverbruikers

This Dutch bill amends the Electricity Act 1998 and the Environmental Taxes Act to carry out the gradual phase-out of the salderingsregeling, the net metering scheme. Under net metering, households with solar panels can offset the electricity they feed back into the grid against what they draw from it, so they pay tax and network charges only on the net amount. The bill sets the legal framework for ending this arrangement step by step. This summary is based on the title and metadata only, not the full text of the bill. Households and small consumers with rooftop solar panels or other small-scale generation are the main groups affected, since they would receive less financial benefit for electricity they feed into the grid. Energy suppliers and grid operators would also be affected by changes to how these charges and taxes are calculated and collected.
