 note = {No other German market changed in the last ten years as rapidly as the German energy market. In 1998, the German energy sector could be described as completely monopolized. The law at the time avoided competition explicitly because of its "destructive effects". In contrast to this, at least since 2005, the energy market in Germany is in legal terms fully liberalized. Within only seven years an isolated market turned into a market which is open for every energy undertaking. What happened during these seven years? What is the economic structure of the German energy sector? How many energy utilities do exist in Germany? Which actions did the Gelman government take to establish competition? What are the current nlles ensuring a network connection and a third party access? This article gives a general overview on the German energy market - from economic facts and data to the historic development of the Germany's energy law to concrete regulations provided by the German Industry Energy Act 'of 2005.},
