Accessibility

Fundamentals

We are committed to making our website accessible. Accordingly, we voluntarily provide this Accessibility Statement to continually enhance accessibility to our website. 

This Accessibility Statement applies to the website
https://www.netzentwicklungsplan.de/en 

Creation of this Accessibility Statement

This statement was created or rather last updated on 17 February 2025. The content of this statement was last reviewed on 17 February 2025. The evaluation was conducted as a self-assessment using the recognized testing method from the BITV test: https://www.bitvtest.de/bitv_test.html. Additionally, tools such as WAVE were used. 

How accessible is this website?

This website is partially accessible. The specific technical measures are based on WCAG 2.2 Level A.

Which areas are not accessible?

The following areas are (currently) not accessible:  

Not all documents (especially older PDFs) are accessible. Some images on the website may lack alternative text. There is currently no page in Easy Language and no explanations in sign language. Audio/video recordings published before 23 September 2020 are not accessible. Content from websites considered archives – that is, containing only material that is no longer needed for active processes and has not been updated or modified after 23 September 2019 – is also not accessible. 

Further measures to improve accessibility

We continuously strive to improve accessibility on our website. In the long term, a page in Easy Language will be created for the most important content, and all provided documents will be reviewed for full accessibility. Editors are being increasingly made aware of the topic of accessibility.
