2. Meter Operation (Messstellenbetrieb): Installation, operation, and maintenance of electricity meters. Revenue generated through regulated meter operation charges for both conventional meters and modern measuring equipment (mME) and intelligent measurement systems (iMSys / smart meters), compliant with the Messstellenbetriebsgesetz (MsbG).
3. Network Connection Fees (Netzanschlussentgelte): Fees charged for new network connections and modifications to electricity and gas distribution networks. These include construction costs, contribution charges, and connection agreements for residential, commercial, and industrial customers, governed by NAV (Niederspannungsanschlussverordnung) and NDAV (Niederdruckanschlussverordnung).
4. Network Loss Energy (Verlustenergie): Energy procurement to cover network losses (approximately 43.97 million kWh annually). The cost of procurement is passed through to network users as part of the regulated network fee structure. Average procurement cost: 110.90 €/MWh.
