Energy Networks Recommendations Eight steps towards the energy future

In the vast majority of cases, energy is transported from the energy providers to energy consumers via energy grids. Changes to these grids affect a broad range of stakeholder groups: private households and businesses, energy providers and distributors, public authorities and politicians.

However, the following recommendations are aimed exclusively as those stakeholders who have a direct influence on the future shaping of energy grids. These include, in particular:

• Private households and businesses as energy consumers
• Energy suppliers, divided into energy providers and energy distributors
• Politicians (federal government, cantons, municipalities)

Furthermore, recommendations have primarily been formulated that can be derived from the research work conducted in the NRP “Energy” and that are also relevant with a view to the transformation of the energy system.
