But what does the energy transition mean for energy policy institutions? The Reiner Lemoine Foundation has initiated an exchange on this question among experts. The resulting statements should be understood as a basis for an important debate in the context of the energy system transition.
The core thesis of this paper is that a change in the institutions is a crucial building block for the energy system transition.
The paper examines the current status quo with regard to five theses on core aspects of the need for institutional reform, making concrete proposals for further development in each case.
