Die dezentrale Stromwirtschaft: Industrie, Kommunen und Staat in der westdeutschen Elektrizitätswirtschaft 1927-1957
Book information
Description
The author examines the history of the German electricity market under the conditions of a “grid-bound” provider monopoly. She disproves the notion that monopoly meant lack of competition and that power companies largely influenced regulatory policy. Even in the early days of West Germany, large numbers of decentralized industrial and municipal power producers were able to hold their own against large power companies.
