The “Energiewende” – Germany’s transition towards a secure, environmentally friendly, and economically successful energy future – includes a large-scale restructuring of the energy supply system towards the use of renewable energy in all sectors. While the switch towards renewables in the electricity sector has been very successful so far, the development in other sectors has been less dynamic.

The progress of the energy transition can be seen in growing shares of renewable energies in the electricity, heat and transport sector. On this webpage the Working Group on Renewable Energy Statistics (AGEE-Stat) provides up-to-date insights into the current developments of renewables in these sectors as well as their contribution to reduce emissions. Additionally, our “Monthly and Quarterly Reports” (in German only) provide an insight into the development of renewables in the current year.

Share of Renewables in gross final energy consumption
Renewable energies have undergone constant growth in Germany. Their share in gross final energy consumption reached 23.8 percent in 2025 (calculated in accordance with EU directive RED). The electricity sector is the main driver behind this development with renewables already providing 55.1 percent of electricity consumption in the year 2025.
