   Neat, Germany is currently producing 97% of its ~50GW energy from renewables.

   Roughly 2/3 wind and 1/3 solar.

   Yes it’s Sunday of a long weekend, but weekday loads are 60–65GW tops, so this ain’t half bad, as we’re using a little more than 1/2 of the installed wind capacity and less than 1/5th installed solar capacity (modulo time of year).

   Oh and we are exporting 5–10GW on top and prices are low to zero.

   Love everything* about this.

   (*still lots to be done)
