Damn. Came to post the same. You said it better.

It's the real disease of the EU. There's no problem of failed policy that shouldn't be addressed by deepening the policy and making it harder to back track. The only possible response to problems of complexity is to make the complexity more intractable.

The real shocker for me is that the authors completely ignore the difference between grid integration and market integration. They seem to hold a maximalist line where the market can and should drive planification of the power grid, and where "managerial-governance" can emerge from that abstraction.

Yep. Grid integration is great. Engineered markets much less so. Sadly, the incentives for regulators and market participants are well aligned here...
