Florence School of Regulation Video Lecture (June 2013) 
Nicole Ahner, Legal Advisor, Florence School of Regulation

In this video lecture Nicole Ahner, recently appointed Legal Advisor to the Florence School of Regulation, discusses the concepts of state aid and state resources in relation to the case of exemption of the energy intensive industries from the obligation of paying network charges when meeting the threshold of 7.000 hours of use and 10 GWH of energy consumption. This case is analysed in the light of the Regulation on Network Charges in Germany amended in 2011, and the different positions and arguments of the European Union and the German government are illustrated.
