Germany's wind and solar additions are the principal driver lifting its renewable electricity share toward the 80% target.
Share of Germany's net public electricity generation produced from renewables (wind, solar, hydro, biomass). Germany is a bellwether for industrial-economy decarbonisation, having combined an aggressive renewable buildout with a complete nuclear phase-out.
How to read it
Higher is better — readings above the norm count as better.
Measured value over time. Its norm (80.0 % of net public electricity generation) is far off this scale, so the series stays worse than norm throughout — the deviation badge shows the gap.
Each driver linked to this indicator, strongest pull first, on the same timeline above. Markers are the facts that moved that driver. These are modelled influences — treat them as correlational unless a documented causal edge is shown.
