Wirtschaftliche Bürgerbeteiligung

The Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state legislature addresses the tension between the expansion of renewable energies on the one hand and acceptance problems on the other with a participation law on mandatory economic participation. This raises the question of compatibility with applicable law, in particular whether the state legislature has the power to legislate. Furthermore, the author shows the framework for a regulation and takes a position on possible encroachments on fundamental rights by such a regulation. The topicality of the study is demonstrated by the constitutional complaint pending against the law, as well as by the dynamic legislation - for example, Section 36g (5) of the Renewable Energy Sources Act now stipulates an opening clause for the federal states.
