WFW Spotlight Series: Germany

WFW Spotlight Series: Germany

The Watson Farley & Williams (WFW) spotlight series of events highlight one country at each event, and the panellists discuss the status of the renewable market in that country at a high level.

Germany was one of the first European markets to support renewable energy projects but still heavily depends on coal and lignite for power generation. Last year, the remaining nuclear plants were switched off, and the government is committed to phasing out coal and lignite by 2030 as part of the energy transition.
