RME Fines Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS 100,000 NOK for Reporting Breach
Summary
RME has issued an overtredelsesgebyr (violation fee) of 100,000 NOK against Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS for failure to submit required economic and technical reporting through the eRapp system by the prescribed deadline. The regulator had previously imposed a daily coercive fine of 10,000 NOK in 2025, which accumulated to 1,250,000 NOK by year-end without achieving compliance. The company has until 9 May 2026 to submit comments on the notice, and RME warns that repeated violations may result in revocation of the company's trading license (omsetningskonsesjon).
“RME vedtok i 2025 løpende tvangsmulkt på 10 000 kroner dagen. Frem til årsskiftet har mulkten kommet opp i 1.250.000 kroner, uten at selskapet har rapportert.”
Wind park operators and other energy companies subject to eRapp reporting obligations should audit their current compliance status and submission calendars. RME's explicit statement that prior coercive fines failed to achieve compliance suggests that the regulator is prepared to escalate to license revocation for persistent non-reporting — the 1,250,000 NOK accumulated coercive fine with zero compliance effect demonstrates that financial penalties alone have not been sufficient deterrent. Companies with reporting gaps should submit overdue data immediately, not merely wait for the May 9 comment deadline.

What changed
RME issued a violation fee of 100,000 NOK against Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS for non-compliance with mandatory economic and technical reporting obligations in the eRapp system. The regulator had previously attempted a daily coercive fine of 10,000 NOK starting in 2025, which reached 1,250,000 NOK by the end of the year without triggering compliance. The violation fee notice replaces the coercive fine mechanism.\n\nEnergy companies operating under reporting obligations in Norway should ensure timely submission of economic and technical data via eRapp. The RME director's statement indicates the regulator views reporting compliance as central to supervisory and analytical work, as well as official statistics for SSB. Repeated failures may result in revocation of omsetningskonsesjon (trading license), representing the most severe enforcement consequence for wind park operators.
What to do next
- Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS must submit comments by 9 May 2026

RME varsler gebyr for brudd på rapporteringsplikten
Reguleringsmyndigheten for energi i NVE (RME) varsler vedtak om overtredelsesgebyr på 100 000 kroner mot Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS for manglende rapportering. Selskapet har ikke levert pålagt økonomisk og teknisk rapportering i eRapp innen gjeldende frister.
-Vi har tidligere vedtatt tvangsmulkt for selskapet, men avslutter denne fordi den ikke har hatt ønsket effekt. Rapporteringsplikten er sentral for tilsyns- og analysearbeidet vårt og en del av den offisielle statistikken til SSB. Overtredelsesgebyret reflekterer at vi ser alvorlig på manglende etterlevelse av disse pliktene, sier direktør for RME, Tore Langset.
RME vedtok i 2025 løpende tvangsmulkt på 10 000 kroner dagen. Frem til årsskiftet har mulkten kommet opp i 1.250.000 kroner, uten at selskapet har rapportert.
Dønnesfjord Vindpark AS har frist til 9. mai 2026 til å uttale seg om varselet. RME opplyser samtidig at gjentatte brudd kan føre til strengere sanksjoner, herunder tilbakekall av omsetningskonsesjon.
