In the beginning of the 2000s, Germany's electricity generation was heavily reliant on fossil fuels and nuclear power - a clear contrast to today's evolving landscape marked by the rise of renewable energy sources. This transformation, known as the German energy transition or "Energiewende", is a significant shift towards sustainable energy systems, aiming to reduce carbon emissions while maintaining energy security and affordability. This presentation provides a concise overview of the current status of the energy transition in Germany and examines technical aspects while addressing economic and political challenges. We will cover the integration of renewables into a changing energy landscape and discuss the emerging role of hydrogen as a key energy carrier. Finally, this presentation will discuss whether joint efforts can successfully achieve Germany's ambitious goals for the energy transition.
