For the first time, the Federal Network Agency grants funding for new gas-reserve power plants. Most projects are planned in Brandenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia and Saxony. Several companies benefit.
The Federal Ministry of Economics is promoting energy plants that are to compensate for short-term electricity shortages in the future.
In the future, new gas power plants will join the "Dunkelflauten". The results of a first round of calls for tenders have been established.
Eleven power plant projects receive money to keep electricity available for dark noises. The costs are to be transferred to all electricity consumers - how expensive it will be in the end is still open.
In Germany, 11 bids were accepted in the first state subsidy tender for new power plants; the total accepted capacity is approximately 5,160 megawatts. The annual subsidy of approximately 800 million euros will be passed on to consumers' bills.
