ANRE’s new prosumer methodology turns several statutory rights into concrete billing rules: monthly compensation, use of surplus across consumption sites, and separate treatment for older balances. Its practical value will depend on whether suppliers can calculate and present those rights clearly on bills.
According to ANRE’s announcement, reported by Digi24, electricity delivered to the grid from 26 July 2026 will be compensated monthly, including under contracts already in force. At the same production and consumption site, the compensated quantity is the lower of electricity injected into the grid and electricity taken from it in that month. Any remaining delivered electricity is treated as surplus.
The most consequential operational change is multi-site value allocation. Surplus left after compensation at the production site may be used to pay electricity bills at other consumption sites belonging to the same prosumer, provided they are served by the same supplier. For eligible individuals with installations of up to 27 kW, the methodology also allows available values to be directed, under the regulation’s conditions, to electricity or gas bills for at least 12 months.
The methodology also separates electricity delivered up to and including 25 July 2026 and still carried forward. Suppliers must retain information on the quantity, historic price, source document and due date. ANRE says these sums are to be paid within no more than 40 working days from the order’s entry into force. For the period from 26 July until the day before the order is published, suppliers must regularise amounts within 40 working days of publication.
The rules differ by installed capacity. Installations of up to 200 kW use quantitative compensation. Those between 200 and 400 kW use financial settlement, with delivered electricity valued at the monthly weighted-average day-ahead market price, according to ANRE.
ANRE says suppliers must complete system adaptations by 31 December 2026. It is right to place that administrative responsibility on suppliers rather than customers. Yet the available report does not establish each supplier’s readiness, how bills will display allocations, or when the order will be published. The reform will become meaningful when monthly statements show balances and transfers in a form customers can check.
