The big picture

In order to prevent network bottlenecks, redispatch measures are used, for example, in which electricity producers are instructed to reduce or increase their feed-in. Obstam against overload is crucial, especially in times of high electricity demand, such as during periods of strong wind and heavy loads, when the wind turbines in the north supply a lot of electricity and at the same time there is high consumption in the south.
