RAP’s Jahn to Testify on Industrial Demand Response before German Federal Parliament
As part of Germany’s Energiewende—or shift to sustainable, clean energy resources—the increase in variable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar is precipitating a major transformation of the electricity grid and its operation. The value of consumers and distributed energy generators as a transmission and distribution system resource is soaring. The German Federal Parliament’s Committee for Economic Affairs and Energy has invited Andreas Jahn to provide expert testimony at a public hearing to amend the ordinance governing the interruption of industrial energy demand on Wednesday, 22 June 2016, at 11:00 CEST.
The hearing will be broadcast via live stream and the Federal Parliament’s television channel.
