previous developments in the power grid

These maintenance measures are important because the German transmission network has not yet been fully developed and in times of high electricity requirements, the risk of network bottlenecks increases. The Federal Network Agency explains that redispatch measures are required for such bottlenecks, such as the less feed-in of electricity from certain systems. This contributes to the stability of the power grid and protects the various network elements from overload. Therefore, maintenance of the infrastructure is of the utmost importance in order to continue to ensure reliable power supply in the future.
