By 2030, 15 million electric vehicles and 6 million heat pumps are to be connected to the grid in Germany. In order to avoid overloading the electricity grid, an emergency instrument was introduced this year in the form of the provisions of Section 14a of the Energy Industry Act.
Its implementation poses major challenges for grid operators, suppliers, appliance manufacturers and not least the electrical trade: We discuss how the new regulations will be realised technically, what hurdles exist and what will also apply from 2025, with a legal assessment by Anna von Bremen, LL.M., Partner at Osborne Clarke, and a look at the practical side by Sebastian Mahlow, Managing Director of ison GmbH.
During the webinar participants can submit their questions to get them answered by the experts in the live Q&A. In addition, both the recording and the speakers' presentations will be made available on our digital content platform The smarter E Digital after the webinar.
