Every Brussels resident who uses energy from the Brussels electricity and gas network pays a contribution for public service missions (MSP or OSP) through distribution tariffs.
This contribution is used to finance the regional policy on energy efficiency, including:
- Energy grants
- Management of green certificates
- Operating costs of the Brussels regulator Brugel.
This contribution is fully allocated to the Region.
Electricity OSP Contribution
The contribution is calculated based on the power of your connection, expressed in kVA.
Attention: High-voltage professional customers can make an annual announcement to modify their available power.
Announcement for 2025
High-voltage professional customers have until the end of June 2024 to make an announcement to modify the available power for the year 2025.
