About
Germany is undergoing a major reset of its energy policy, with wide-reaching implications across the power sector. The government is rethinking core elements of the market, from support for renewables and the future of thermal generation to grid infrastructure and storage. With policy shifts underway, developers, investors, and utilities are recalibrating to navigate what comes next.
A central piece of the puzzle is the revival of Germany’s power plant strategy. A reworked approach is now on the table, bringing the potential introduction of a capacity market aimed at unlocking investment in firm generation, with adjustments to address key industry concerns. But major questions remain. There is little clarity on how technology-neutral the design will be, what kind of support hydrogen-ready assets can expect, and how batteries will fit into commercial models that need to balance short-term flexibility with long-term system needs.
Grid access and stability is another concern. As more intermittent renewables and batteries connect to the system, pressure on existing infrastructure is rising. Developers are facing evolving rules on firm versus flexible connections, and it is still unclear how upcoming grid regulations will affect project costs and timelines. Furthermore, uncertainty on upcoming reform of the EEG and impacts on PPAs make long-term strategies for commercialisation challenging.
Despite the uncertainty, the energy transition in Germany still presents significant opportunities. Against this backdrop, the Aurora Energy Transition Summit Berlin 2025 will offer a timely platform to unpack these challenges and explore where the market may be heading. The event brings together decision-makers and experts from across the energy sector to examine the political, technical, and commercial dimensions of the transition.
From the future of capacity markets and thermal buildout to the role of batteries and renewables in grid reliability, the summit will help participants make sense of change and prepare for what comes next.
