Yes that’s Berlin, Germany – what about Berliners who actually want reliable electricity – do they get any say.
The Australian ABC reports – Berlin citizens looking to buy back electricity grid in aim of using more renewable energy

Beats me why they don’t just buy shares in Vattenfall. At least there’s an operator who understands grid operation.
Imagine the mugs spending 100 Euros to get a share and a vote; amongst the million other shareholders. Only one vote regardless of how many shares are held. What happens when the operation needs money for maintenance because they “forgot” to charge the customers and/or generators an access fee because they’re all shareholders?
The place could revert to swamp in less than a decade.
