Ref. C17-CS-31-03, 8 December 2017
This paper is in response to the European Commission’s proposal of 23 September 2017, which includes specific articles on the European Cybersecurity Certification Scheme known as the Cybersecurity Act. The proposed Cybersecurity Act introduces important changes, some of which may eventually affect the cybersecurity ecosystem within the energy sector. CEER welcomes the European Commission’s proposal to establish a substantial and structured step forward to set up a stronger European system for cybersecurity. CEER sees these new proposals as potentially aiding European energy regulators in their daily regulatory functions. However, the proposed legislation poses some issues which European energy regulators believe should be reconsidered before final legislation is approved. This response paper recommends certain changes that could improve the draft legislation.

This report provides a general overview of the regulatory regimes applied in 2016, the required efficiency developments and analyses the overall determination of capital costs in EU Member States and Norway. A major focus is placed on the calculation of an adequate rate of return, the determination of the regulatory asset base (RAB) and the depreciation of assets in the different regulatory regimes. Other important, individual parameters and new incentive mechanisms presented in this study have to be interpreted in the context of a whole country-specific regulatory regime. Some figures only reflect an ex ante approach for 2016, while ex post calculations still are to be executed.
