The study cites two main factors as the reason for this: rising gas prices on the one hand and falling costs for...
Networks are a question of public services for which, in case of doubt, the state must also assume a guarantor position. So state network operators and suppliers like in France? I think it would make sense if infrastructure that is important for public services is in state hands and if the state's involvement in both grid expansion and the expansion of renewable energies is a real option, if...
