German energy transition status: Data on power sector and target progress (heise.de)

• 80% renewable target by 2030, 100% by 2045
• Grid expansion and storage capacity are critical bottlenecks
• Battery storage increasingly important for grid integration

"Germany aims for 80% renewable electricity by 2030 and 100% by 2045. This article assesses progress with data: installed capacity grows, but grid bottlenecks and lack of storage hinder. Redispatch costs rise. Battery storage gains importance. Production costs for solar and wind power continuously decrease. Germany is above EU average but far behind Norway."
