Upgrade of the power grid will be 19 billion more expensive
In 2017, it was estimated that Germany would have to invest 33 billion euros into its high-voltage power grid, because of the energy transition. Scope Ratings has now calculated a 50% higher cost of 52 billion by 2030. Not included are the cost for connecting offshore wind farms that is also paid by grid operators and the cost for upgrading the distribution grid.
