<p>The study presents a new distribution tariff methodology in Slovenia that will enter into force on 1 July 2024. Its main novelty is the introduction of five-time slots with substantially different charges, the introduction of an agreed capacity (apart from nominated) that can be changed upon request several times a year, and an increased weight of capacity (power) in the distribution tariff making it more cost reflective.
