If you, as an energy industry company, are interested in real-time values, we''d be happy to prepare a bid for you. Please contact us. What is the current status of photovoltaics in Germany? This is an interesting question

On sunny days, PV electricity may temporarily cover more than two thirds of our electricity demand. Based on a forecasted gross electricity consumption of 658 TWh in 2030, the planned PV expansion to 215 GWp would lead to a PV power share of about. 30 percent, with renewable energies generally covering 80 percent.

Among other sources, decentralized electricity generation by solar power with photovoltaic (PV) systems penetrated the German market successfully
