Net revenue for 2020 decreased by € 4 million compared with the preceding financial year. This decrease was mainly attributable to the sale of Joulz Diensten in 2019. In 2019, Joulz Diensten contributed € 16 million to revenue, for a period of four months. Additionally, regulated revenue from heavy-use customers decreased compared with 2019 due to a decrease in peak capacity and peak volumes, mainly as a result of COVID-19.
This was partly offset by higher revenue in the metering domain, which increased by around € 26 million, due to higher metering tariffs. The 2019 metering tariffs comprised a larger component for repayment of surplus profits. The remaining repayable surplus profits in future tariffs are disclosed in 29 Contingent assets and liabilities. The number of low-use connections increased for both gas and electricity at Stedin.
