Germany, with skies free from crown Lockdown, solar energy production record

solar panels in Germany generating record amounts of electricity to tighten the market forces that have hammered the profitability of coal power plants remained in the country. Gin clear sky over Central Europe helped photovoltaic systems produce 32.227 megawatts on Monday, breaking the previous record of March 23 are expected Light conditions continue this week, according to Germany DWD German Weather Service. “There’s hardly a cloud over Germany,” Andreas Friedrich, a spokesman for the DWD, said by telephone. “And a high pressure system over Scandinavia will maintain these conditions in place at least until Friday.” Renewable deeper cuts, the market share for coal, the fuel that has been built on the heritage of industrial skills and Germany. The government forecasts that green power is about 80% of the energy mix of 2038 compared to a little more than 40% in 2019. The plant operators coal carried by the government and RWE LEAG ends gradually fed power plants forms concerted from fuel from the 2038th some of these plants close earlier than the falling cost of solar energy and fixed prices for carbon allowances provided to make more profitable coal-fired power. meaning sun conditions such as solar generated about 40% of capacity in Germany Monday, compared to 22% of coal and nuclear power, second Agora energy transition. Solar, wind and other renewable energy sources accounted for 78% of electricity production in Germany. , BloombergNEF Jenny Chase “analyst Every year there are more just installed so that the pot broke almost every spring,” said the increase of solar energy, adding that fewer flights and air pollution due to lower lockdowns crown they care quotas that are increased by Solar. lockdowns Crown accelerated market trends, spell doom for the dirtiest fossil fuel. Less activity has reduced demand for electricity sunnier Spring and windy weather increases output by the priority renewable energies compared to fossil fuels in power feeding. That is, in more hours Therefore, when electricity prices were negative, in which consumers are paid essentially to take excess energy from the grid. The phenomenon is usually seen when the holidays or weekends are particularly sunny or windy weather. Accidents increase in negative prices recorded by 773 negative prices for contracts of 15 minutes in the first three months of the year, an increase of 78% over the same period a year ago, according to data exchange EPEX spot green energy sources such as solar and wind energy is too meet the demand of electricity used before expensive production such as coal and lignite hard. With more regularly negative prices, fossil fuels are not going to get a look. “They coal me as much as the losing energy market,” Carlos Perez Linkenheil, senior analyst with the Berlin-based Energy Brain Pool, said by telephone last week.
