German term or phrase: Entflechtung usw
"Die Systeme und Regeln für den Netzzugang Dritter und der Grad der Entflechtung [von integrierten EVU´s, die Verf.] spielen in diesem Zusammenhang eine grundlegende Rolle"

In the above sentence what does the abbreviation verf. with the capital V imply in connection with Entflectung? Is Entflectung similar to decentralization?

DeVries Tech. & Eng. Dic. gives decentralisation for Entflechtung, but does not specify the context, but if(!) we\'re talking about electricity supply, it should be okay IMO.

I think the second response , ie the one by "Crocodile"(I hope thats only a nickname !) was also a very good one but I guess I will have to grant it to Cilian. He was really quick and pretty good.
Thanks all of you for your amazing contributions!

Explanation:
is the correct English term for Entflechtung and (die Verf.) means "die Verfasser", or a note added by the authors.

The abbreviation EVU stands for Energieversorgungsunternehmen, or energy supply company/energy utility.

To make it even clearer:

The systems and regulations for third-party grid access and the degree of unbundling (of integrated energy utilities - authors\' note) play a fundamental role in this context.
