Bloomberg shows this chart: I understand the above chart to mean that consumers were actually paid to use electricity. (Please correct me if I'm mistaken.) I was wondering how this is possible? How is the power/electricity market special and different from other markets? (Or perhaps the German electricity market is special.)
