It transposes the EU Acceleration Directive for electricity and gas into German national law. Nicole Wilke and Camilla Bausch explain the essential elements of the draft amendment in an article.

The article has been published in 'Umwelt', the monthly journal of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment.
