# Germany renewable energy transition > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/germany-renewable-energy-transition > Updated: 2026-09-14T09:32:02.000Z. Sources: 27. Developments: 2. Germany is advancing its energy transition with the goal of having renewable sources account for nearly 88% of installed capacity by 2035. This shift is expected to be driven by solar photovoltaics, onshore wind, and offshore wind energy, despite a projected rise in electricity demand due to the electrification of transport, heating, and industry. To support this, the country must expand high-voltage infrastructure to connect northern wind farms to southern industrial hubs. On a local and residential level, the transition is manifesting through new technologies and educational initiatives. New regulations are facilitating the use of domestic micro-wind turbines to supplement solar power. Additionally, the market for residential energy storage is expanding with plug-and-play battery and inverter solutions designed for easy installation. Efforts to promote electromobility are also underway, including community information sessions regarding electric vehicle charging infrastructure and subsidies. Recent data indicates a significant shift in the national electricity market. In the first half of 2026, renewables accounted for 59.1 percent of net feed-in. As a result of this high share of renewable energy, Germany’s electricity import surplus has decreased significantly compared to previous years. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-14: Berlin elections focus on housing, crime, and urban decay Berlin's upcoming state elections focus on critical issues including the housing crisis, organized crime, and urban cleanliness, with Die Linke's Elif Eralp proposing significant rental market regulations. 25 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/germany-accelerates-energy-transition-toward-80-renewable-electricity ### 2026-09-13: Renewable energy and electromobility trends in Germany Germany sees increased focus on residential energy, including electromobility workshops in Bingen and new plug-and-play solar storage solutions like Solakon ONE and Maxxicharge V2+. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/renewable-energy-and-electromobility-trends-in-germany --- Cite as: Germany renewable energy transition.
