Norway: Overall Summary

The Kingdom of Norway promotes renewable energy through a quota system including a certificate trading scheme. Grid operators are obliged to connect renewable energy plants to their grids without discriminating against certain (groups of) plant operators. This obligation also applies if the realisation of the new connection requires the development of the grid.
