Guardian
The German town of Wolfhagen reclaimed its grid when a lease with E.ON expired more than ten years ago, overcoming strong resistance from the utility, and setting off a wave of municipalities taking back control of privatised infrastructure, reports Aditya Chakrabortty in a Guardian feature. 鈥淪ince then, 284 municipalities, including the second-biggest city of Hamburg, have followed suit.鈥� The case holds important lessons for how Britain runs its electricity, gas, water, and train services, according to Chakrabortty.
