The current article analyzes the problems derived from the tax treatment developed by the Tax Administration and the Tax Court regarding non-technical energy losses, produced within the framework of the transport activities of companies belonging to the electricity sector. Despite mediating various pronouncements, the criteria under which this expense may or may not be deductible has not been clearly established as a consequence of the existence of contradictory criteria, under which various requirements for its deduction are required or exempted. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the aforementioned criteria and, in light of the sectoral regulation and, specifically, the nature of nontechnical energy losses, examine the different options through which this concept could be deduced. As a result of this analysis, it is concluded that the nontechnical energy losses that occur in the development of the transmission activities of energy companies qualify as “ordinary losses“, which, despite not being specifically regulated in the regulations of the income tax, must be deductible in accordance with the application of the causality principle established in the Income Tax Law.
