  • Due to the generous renewable energy state funding in Germany, bids are price capped to counterbalance the state aid.
  • Germany’s Greens are junior partners in North Rhine-Westphalia and Schleswig-Holstein alongside the conservative CDU and are set to become the social democrat SPD’s junior partners in Lower Saxony.
