The balance of levy account for the former ONTRAS market area amounts to
10,887,126.09 €* for the month of August 2009.
To cover the expenses resulting from the use of control energy and compensation energy, the balancing system comprises the charge of control energy levy by the balancing group network operator, starting on 2009-10-01.
The control energy levy for the former ONTRAS market area amounts to 0,06 €/MWh for the period from 1 April 2009 until 1 October 2009.
ONTRAS will charge appropriate instalment within the monthly invoicing of balancing groups.
Since October 2009, GASPOOL administrates the levy account and collects the balance fees.
The shortfall or the surplus of the former ONTRAS-levy account on 2009-10-01 will be invoiced to the balancing group managers according to § 30 Appendix 3 KoVIII. After that, the levy account will be balanced and abandoned by GASPOOL.

*The accounted balance of the levy account considers the respective actual balance of the effective cash flow. Thereby:
- stands for shortage, because expenses are higher than the revenues
+ stands for debit balance, because expenses are lower than the revenues
