Germany's market design needs to catch up with a wind sector that has grown up, according to an article published by Recharge under the headline, “Wind has grown up – now Germany's market design needs to catch up.” In the piece, Catharina Dreier said the introduction of CfDs needs to build on what has worked while addressing new system realities.

The comment is the central argument in a debate that now sits at the point where policy meets a more mature market. Recharge, which describes itself as the world's leading business intelligence source for the renewable energy industries, said it provides award-winning international coverage of breaking news, in-depth features and analysis across the wind and solar sectors and is part of DN Media Group.

Dreier's line is also the sharpest clue to how the discussion is being framed: not as a break with the past, but as an adjustment to changing conditions. The source text does not add further detail on what those system realities are, and it does not spell out how CfDs would work in practice in this case.

That leaves the issue at an important but narrow stage. The article places Germany inside a market-design question that is still being defined, with the argument already drawn around continuity on one side and adaptation on the other.
