The German Federal Network Agency report details electricity supply security until 2035, with scenarios for renewable energy rollout. Up to 35.5GW of additional controllable capacity may be needed. Additional reserves may be required if delays occur. Flexibility from consumers is crucial, including energy storage and renewable expansion.
The Bundesnetzagentur supports new power station installations by 2030 to increase capacity. Flexibility from consumers like heat pumps and electric vehicles is crucial. Energy storage could reduce the need for more power plants. Rapid wind and solar expansion is vital for supply security and climate targets.
258 ground-mounted solar projects totaling 2,271MW were awarded in Germany’s most recent tender. Bids exceeded the 2,266MW target. The information was originally published by Power Technology.
