Article 14 – paragraph 2
Article 14 – paragraph 2
2. The decision of the national regulatory authorities for granting such incentives shall consider the results of the cost-benefit analysis on the basis of the methodology elaborated pursuant to Article 12 and in particular the regional or Union-wide positive externalitieffects generated by the project. The national regulatory authorities shall further analyse the specific risks incurred by the project promoter(s), the risk mitigation measures taken and the justification of this risk profile in view of the net positive impact provided by the project, when compared to a lower-risk alternative. Eligible risks shall notably include risks related to new transmission technologies, both onshore and offshore,include risks related to under-recovery of costs and development risks.
