The ‘13k Mechanism’– Price Formation and Its Impact on Hydrogen Production

On 1 October 2024, the two-year trial period for the newly adopted §13k EnWG (13k mechanism) will begin. The mechanism is designed to make otherwise curtailed electricity available to flexible consumers to increase system efficiency and reduce redispatch costs. While the additionality criteria make it less attractive for batteries, it could be a game changer for electrolysers.

The one-hour virtual webinar will be split into a content presentation and a panel discussion:

Part 1 in English: Presentation of our recent analysis of the 13k mechanism, including future price formation and its attractiveness for green hydrogen production

Part 2 in German: Panel discussion with two experts on the topic:

• Sean Turner, Project Manager Implementation of §13k EnWG, TenneT TSO GmbH
• Tobias Mathur, Head of Strategy and Business Development, HH2E AG

If you have any questions, please get in touch with our Commercial Associate for the DACH region, Benjamin La Trobe.
