Energy solutions made in Germany

Germany’s electricity supply is becoming “greener” every year. The share of renewables in electricity consumption has steadily grown over the last few years – rising from around 6% in 2000 to around 38% in 2018.

New solar installations are among the most affordable renewables technologies. At the end of 2018, the number of PV installations stood at 1.6 million. These produced around 45 gigawatts of electricity, making PV the second largest source of renewable electricity after onshore wind energy, with an installed capacity of over 52 gigawatts.
