Growth in german wind capacity is slowing. Soo… then the plan is to keep on with lignite and gas? Am I missing something?

    Growth is slowing. That doesn’t mean total availability is not increasing, but that it’s increasing at a lesser rate.

    Do they not teach reading comprehension anymore?

      Huh, interesting how you resort to low key insult me right away - I guess they didn’t teach you any manners.

      At any rate, “look at the past X years trend” is not a useful metric when the current trend is different. In fact, a bunch of laws was just passed to accelerate the further installation of wind turbines. And moreover, what this graphic shows how the capacities have tripled in 14 years. So instead of meming let me make my point clear: I think OP is missing somthing.
