Berlin Senate sees open data as a cause for the (potential hybrid) attack on the Berlin power grid. Frag den Staat team says Senate is trying to wash its hands of resp after decades of under-investing in power infrastructure and its resilience. I see a general trend towards obscuring more data that has been part of open data for a decade or more. Btw the Dutch subsoil cable data is not public, the power networks (like in Germany) are published by the network government owned enterprises. In part this is bc of the HVD regulation. The next round of HVD, and the DS for Energy will likely require this data to be generally available too. Data spaces are a way to deal with access with nuance and granularity but open data is the actual legal default EU wide. So it must be legally explained if something is not open.
