Germany, like many European countries, is in the middle of an energy transition that is of great importance for the country. However, energy demand has continued to decline despite the country’s continued plans to become a more sustainable alternative. The country may even have recently received shocking news.
An important advance in the country’s energy sector
Let us not forget that Germany is practically dependent on the energy that its neighbors can supply to the country, but wonderful news is filtering into the country. A study conducted by Rystand energy indicates that Germany will be able to achieve and exceed its energy transition goals; that is, an estimated 80% of energy obtained in 2030 could come from renewable sources.
This important achievement can easily be attributed to the implementation of large-scale projects such as large wind and photovoltaic parks that have been installed in recent times and have significantly contributed to the energy transition and to solving the problem of energy consumption after the mass elimination of electricity. traditional sources and the emission of polluting gases.
By the end of 2023, 143 gigawatts of alternating current (GWac) were deployed, breaking a record for the country’s power generation. It is now estimated that this performance will be surpassed again by the end of 2024, which will be a truly significant and important progress for the country in search of sustainable energy.
This is the estimated energy capacity for 2028
As we already mentioned, the country is increasingly focusing on sustainable energy. In fact, it is estimated that the country could deploy more than 120 GWac on its land by 2028, which would be distributed in offshore and onshore wind energy, in addition to large wind energy. photovoltaic parks, with offshore wind energy attracting everyone’s attention by generating 50 GWac of the total.
It is estimated that the high rate of energy generated is possible over a four-year period, i.e. the projects started in 2024 and will be completed by the end of 2028. It is important to emphasize that most of these percentages are significant, as there is a good chance that 100% of them will reach us.
Meanwhile, Rystad estimates the country will end the year with a total of 107 TWha significant reduction from the figure achieved specifically in 2015 163 TWhand as we mentioned earlier, that amount of energy could increase significantly in the coming years, which would provide more opportunities and successfully progress in the sustainable energy sector and position itself in the energy transition experienced worldwide.
A lower price on the electricity bill
We can mention that Germany is one of the countries with the lowest prices in the European Union if we compare it with other neighboring countries, which largely depend on what the neighboring countries can offer, in addition to the low impact on renewable energy.
In this way, Germany is moving forward by leaps and bounds in the energy sector, quickly paving its way and broadening all its horizons, making the country a much more sustainable and sustainable country, like the rest of the countries in Europe, which are looking for for a much more environmentally friendly way to create energy and eliminate traditional sources that require fossil fuels.
Germany is making significant progress in this area energy transition to cleaner and more sustainable sourcesdriven by the large-scale installation of wind and photovoltaic projects. Despite reducing energy demand, the country continues to break records in renewable energy generation, with optimistic forecasts estimating that 80% of energy will come from renewable sources by 2030.
