Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal authority remained competent to decide the dispute after the 2009 revision of the Energy Act.
Decisione estratta
No. The revised federal energy and electricity-supply legislation comprehensively regulated the relevant price components and left no room for an additional cantonal tariff decision.
Motivazione estratta
Under the new system, network operators' purchase obligations and the associated remuneration are federally regulated and supervised by the ElCom. A cantonal rule requiring a higher remuneration for privately produced electricity would create an extra price component that cannot be passed on under the federal tariff regime.
