These elements can contribute to a more efficient use of the electricity network, facilitate renewable integration and support the development of industrial flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, FEDIL stresses that the reform of network tariffs should not be approached solely from a technical cost-allocation perspective. The future tariff framework must also contribute to preserving the competitiveness of Luxembourg\u2019s industrial base and support the electrification efforts required for the energy transition.<\/p>\n<p>In its position, FEDIL notably underlines:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the importance of maintaining attractive grid costs for industrial consumers;<\/li>\n<li>the need to avoid disproportionate penalties linked to temporary capacity exceedances;<\/li>\n<li>the importance of adequately recognising and rewarding stable, predictable industrial consumption patterns;<\/li>\n<li>the importance of creating meaningful flexibility incentives for HT and THT consumers, particularly during periods of high renewable electricity generation;<\/li>\n<li>the need to avoid structurally penalising continuous-process industries with limited technical flexibility;<\/li>\n<li>the importance of integrating broader industrial policy and competitiveness considerations into the tariff reform.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>FEDIL also calls for a tariff structure that better reflects actual system conditions and encourages industrial electricity consumption during periods of strong solar generation and lower overall grid utilisation, particularly during summer daytime hours.<\/p>\n<p>The federation remains convinced that a well-calibrated reform can simultaneously improve system efficiency, support renewable integration and preserve industrial competitiveness. Continued dialogue between regulators, network operators and industrial consumers will therefore remain essential during the next phases of the reform process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026-05-21-FEDIL-note-on-Creos-Tariff-Workshop-MT-HT-THT-VFR.pdf\"><strong>READ THE FULL PUBLICATION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":60195,"template":"","class_list":["post-74191","position","type-position","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position\/74191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/position"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position\/74191\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":74195,"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position\/74191\/revisions\/74195"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/60195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fedil.lu\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
