Wijziging van de Wet opslag duurzame energie in verband met de vaststelling van tarieven voor 2017

This Dutch bill amends the Wet opslag duurzame energie (Sustainable Energy Levy Act), the law that funds renewable energy support in the Netherlands. The amendment sets the levy rates for 2017. The levy is a charge on energy bills that pays for subsidies for renewable electricity and green gas projects. Households and businesses that buy electricity and gas in the Netherlands are affected, since the levy is included in their energy bills. Energy suppliers collect the charge, and renewable energy producers receiving support depend on the revenue it generates.
