Leveranspunkt

Leveranspunkt, literally “delivery point,” is a term used to describe a designated location where a delivery of goods or energy is completed under a contract. It defines where ownership, risk, or responsibility for the delivered item passes from seller to buyer, and the exact location, timing, and documentation are specified by the applicable delivery terms or purchase agreement. The concept is common in logistics, manufacturing, and energy markets, and is used to coordinate transfer, invoicing, and logistics planning.

In logistics, a leveranspunkt is the point in the supply chain where goods are handed over to the recipient. This can be at a supplier’s warehouse, a transport hub, or the customer’s premises, depending on the contract and terms such as Incoterms. The delivery point influences who arranges transportation, bears risk during transit, and is responsible for required documentation, inspections, and payment milestones.

In the Swedish electricity market, leveranspunkt refers to the physical point in the power grid where electricity is delivered to a customer or to a distribution network. Each leveranspunkt has a unique identifier used for metering, invoicing, and system balancing. The concept helps allocate network charges, determine metering responsibilities, and attribute energy flows to the correct customer or installation. A property may have multiple leveranspunkter if it contains several metering points or separate connections.
