Evaluation of Alternative Network Tariffs - for Residential Customers with Hourly Metering of Electricity Consumption

This paper presents results from the Norwegian research project "SmartTariff" (2014-2017). The objective of this project is to develop the future tariffs to be introduced when full-scale roll-out of smart meters have been performed. This is done through analysing framework conditions and purposes for different tariffs, suggesting alternative tariffs and evaluate cost/benefit for actors involved. This paper presents today's status of network tariffs in Norway and some alternative network tariffs that will be investigated within the project.
