Since 1 January 2024 every new controllable consumption device — heat pump, wallbox, storage — has to be registered, checked and assigned a network-charge reduction module under § 14a EnWG. For a municipal utility that is a volume process with direct customer impact: check the grid connection point, assign the module, chase the installer for missing data, inform customer and supplier, document the case. The department knows exactly how it runs — nobody there can build it.
Describe the process in one sentence
No diagram, no nodes: you write what should happen. The agency derives the trigger, the required capability and the actions — and asks a question instead of guessing when the description is ambiguous.
Build, validate, test-run
The engineer generates the graph strictly from allow-listed node types; shell execution is barred. Validation errors go back to him, bounded to a few rounds. Then the workflow runs in simulation mode — side-effecting nodes return stubs instead of real sends.
Read the review summary and approve
The reviewer lists what has outside effect, what is still missing and what a human has to look at — including honest open points instead of invented recipient lists. Only then does a tenant_admin decide: approve, or approve and activate.
The process rests on § 14a EnWG (grid-oriented control of controllable consumption devices) and the BNetzA Festlegung BK6-22-300 of 27 November 2023, binding for new controllable devices since 1 January 2024. The agency’s guarantees live in code, not in a prompt: draft instead of activation, simulation mode instead of real side effects, a fixed list of permitted node types. Demo with sample data; the utility is fictional. The generated workflow is a draft and replaces no professional review.
