REUTERS/Joachim HerrmannBERLIN, Aug 13 (Reuters) - Germany's economy ministry is in favour of distributing the network costs of expanding renewable energies "fairly" among the country's federal states, a spokesperson for the ministry said on Sunday. Prices in the north have been comparatively high due to connection costs for wind turbines to the power grid that are passed on to the residents of the regions where the turbines are located. The premiers of the northern states said the difference in prices was hurting local support for constructing new wind turbines. "It is important that they (the federal states) work together for a fair distribution," the spokesperson told Reuters. I can well understand the frustration of many citizens and regions," Mueller told Neue Osnabruecker Zeitung in an interview published on Saturday.
