Its main aim is to streamline administrative procedures to speed up the entrance of small power plants into the electrical system. The scope of application, subject to certain grid connection requirements, includes all renewable energy power plants, with the exception of CHP installations, of nominal power under 100 kW, and on the other hand CHP installations and biomass power plants of nominal power under 1000 kW. In addition, it establishes an a bridge procedure for the connection to the low voltage distribution grid of installations under 10 kW. The regulation will allow small businesses and the domestic sector to access small scale electricity generation so, once the upcoming net metering regulations are in place, they can self-consume the energy produced.
