Keywords: energy costs, energy-intensive SMEs, TEK, compensation,
Businesses of all sizes have also been hit by sharply increased energy costs. The Dutch government is looking at options for targeted support for energy-intensive SMEs. The Energy Cost Compensation Scheme (de Tegemoetkoming Energiekosten-regeling, ‘TEK’) is for energy-intensive SMEs.
The TEK is based on the energy consumption and turnover of an entrepreneur. The compensation then consists of part of the cost increase this year and in 2023. Energy-intensive SMEs will then receive support amounting to a percentage to be determined of the increase in the energy price (gas and electricity) for their energy consumption up to a maximum to be determined. per company (subsidy ceiling).
The Dutch government expects to be able to announce the conditions of the TEK in terms of target group, the total budget, the percentages and the maximum support per company in the short term.
