• What do the new legal framework and market conditions mean for the distribution companies? How is the competition on the retail market going to be affected?
• What will be the role of ACER in the unification of the DSO's and TSO's principles of operation and whether we can anticipate further unbundling requirements on the DSO level?
• Who and on what common principles will finance R&D and investments in smart grids;
