leveringspunktet

Leveringspunktet is a term used in Norwegian and Danish to denote the delivery point in a supply chain or utility relationship. It refers to the location where goods, energy, or services are handed over to the recipient, and it often marks the boundary between the supplier’s obligations and the recipient’s responsibilities. The exact meaning can differ depending on contract terms and regulatory frameworks, but it is generally tied to transfer of risk, title, and liability.

In logistics and procurement, leveringspunktet is the defined place of delivery in a contract. It specifies where goods are to be delivered, who bears responsibility for transport up to that point, and when risk or ownership passes to the buyer. The concept is closely connected to common trade terms and Incoterms, which describe different transfer points and responsibilities for international shipments. In domestic commerce, the leveringspunktet might be a warehouse, a distribution center, or the recipient’s address, and it has implications for invoicing, returns, and warranties.

In the context of energy and utilities, leveringspunktet commonly denotes the point at which energy supply obligations shift from the supplier to the customer, often tied to metering and settlement. This delivery point is used for billing and network access, and its exact definition can vary by country, regulator, and specific service agreement. The term underscores the practical boundary where delivery performance and responsibility are measured and allocated.

Etymologically, leveringspunktet comes from levere (to deliver) and punkt (point) with the definite suffix -et in Norwegian and Danish. In Swedish, a similar concept is expressed as leveranspunkt. The term remains widely used in Nordic trade, logistics, and energy sectors.
