BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's Environment minister said the state will help set the ground rules for the country's shift to more renewable power resources but will leave the details of how to implement it to market forces.

Speaking at a power conference in Berlin on Wednesday, Peter Altmaier told the meeting that the government would only intervene when necessary.

"We will have to decide on (five to six) central points that are binding and then we will see a dynamism and synergies that we at this stage cannot even imagine," he said.
