Hamburg power grid limits

Hamburger Energienetze has stopped issuing new large electricity connections exceeding 1.5 MVA because the capacity shortage at links to the high-voltage operator 50Hertz is projected to continue until the early 2030s. This restriction means no new facilities requiring significant power can connect, including data centers, metal plants, large battery storage, and factories. The city grid provider for Hamburg faces a situation where any entity needing a lot of electricity hits a wall.
