Solar power surpasses previous-year productionGermany reached 90.2 terawatt-hours of solar power on Sunday; BSW-Solar warns about planned energy-law reforms.
- On Sunday, solar power generation reached 90.2 terawatt-hours, surpassing the annual total recorded during 2025.
- Data from the German Weather Service and Federal Network Agency link the record to abundant sunshine and continued photovoltaic expansion.
- The Bundestag is considering the EEG reform and grid package; adoption is planned for mid-October, with the laws taking effect in 2027.
- The renewables industry expects rooftop-solar demand to fall by more than 70 percent if the laws pass unchanged.
It is citizen energy, business energy, and a pillar of our electricity supply.— Carsten Körnig, CEO of BSW-Solar, in the taz article 'Successful Renewable Energies: Record in Solar Power'
