Germany
In Schleswig-Holstein, a German region exporting big amounts of wind energy, TenneT is testing a new approach towards early stakeholder involvement.
Highlights
Two points in the newly introduced procedure are decisive:
01
Key stakeholders (politics, industry, Distribution System Operators) come together at the very beginning to agree on common goals and rules
02
They jointly involve the public early on by organising events, inviting media, and establishing an email system for public input
