Germany's state governments calls for optimal use of power grid
Bundesrat
The German energy transition demands not only the expansion, but also the optimal use of the power grid, says the council of Germany's federal state governments (Bundesrat). Possible measures include power line monitoring, or the use of high-temperature wires to increase transmission capacity. The decision will be sent to the federal government, but there are no set deadlines for the legislative process, writes the Bundesrat.
