Germany set a new national record for renewable energy by meeting 78 percent of
the day’s electricity demand with renewables sources, exceeding the previous
record of 74 percent set in May of 2014.
According to an analysis by German energy expert Craig
Morris at the Energiewende blog, a stormy day across northern Europe combined
with sunny conditions in southern Germany led to the new record, the exact
figures of which are still preliminary.
Morris writes that most of Germany’s wind turbines are
installed in the north and most of its solar panels are in the south.
