Jan Lehnardt :couchdb: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)
