Transfer of network ownership

The transfer of network ownership is aimed at network owners and housing cooperatives who provide network services to consumers and want to transfer the ownership of the network together with the consumers to us. To do this, reference documentation should be submitted to us, so we could assess the capacity and other specifications of the electric power network to be transferred.

How long does it take to transfer a network?

Above all, this depends on the existence and quality of reference documentation. Elektrilevi can only take over safe networks that have a legal basis and meet the requirements. The time cost depends on whether the documentation has been preserved or the person transferring the ownership of a network has yet to obtain it.
