      They deliberately hindered the development of that connection, the result is that the german coastal regions have a overcapacity of wind energy production (big off-shore wind farms up there) while the south has to import energy from neighbouring countries. Because the northern output can not reach the south. And Guess where much of the german industry is? Not at the coast, or even northern Bundesländer.

      I honestly don’t get why they did it, maybe some party members were invested in solar energy and wanted to keep prices high or something.
