The proposed transitional regime relates to commitments undertaken by Danish electricity undertakings regarding take-or-pay gas contracts, closures of power plants and pension obligations as notified by the Danish Government in its letter of 19 February 1998.
The transitional regime notified by the Danish Government contains no measures which would constitute derogations from Chapter IV, VI or VII of Directive 96/92/EC. Article 24 of the Directive is therefore not applicable to the transitional regime notified by the Danish Government.
