Renewable Energies in Germany 2023-2024: Wind Power Facts and Figures for Kids

Renewable energies, particularly wind power, are becoming increasingly important in Germany's energy landscape. The country aims to transition towards more climate-friendly and independent energy sources. As of 2018, renewable energies accounted for 33% of Germany's energy mix, with a target of 40-45% by 2025. Wind power plays a significant role in this transition, with over 30,000 wind turbines installed nationwide. Despite its advantages, such as clean energy production and job creation, wind power also faces challenges including environmental impacts and intermittency.

• Germany is actively pursuing renewable energy sources to combat climate change and reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
• Wind power is a major contributor to Germany's renewable energy portfolio, with both onshore and offshore installations.
• The country aims to balance the benefits of renewable energy with addressing potential drawbacks and ensuring energy security.

Disadvantages of Wind Power

This page outlines the main challenges and drawbacks associated with wind power:

  1. Shadowing effects
  2. Landscape alteration
  3. Dependence on wind availability
  4. High costs for offshore wind farm construction
  5. Environmental impacts:
    • Use of materials: 13,000 tons of aluminum
    • Wildlife effects: Approximately 1,200 tons of insects (equivalent to 1,200 billion individual insects) die annually due to wind turbines

Vocabulary: Shadowing refers to the effect where wind turbines cast moving shadows, which can be disruptive to nearby residents.

Highlight: The environmental impact on insect populations is significant, with an estimated 1,200 billion insects dying annually due to wind turbines.

Wind Power Statistics

This page presents comprehensive statistics on wind power in Germany:

  • Total number of wind turbines: 30,518 (29,213 onshore and 1,305 offshore)
  • Installed power capacity: 59.3 GW
  • Electricity generation in 2018: 112 billion kWh
  • Expected lifetime of turbines: 20-30 years
  • Land requirement: 673-932 km²

A comparison of land use for different energy sources is provided:

  • Nuclear: 3.3 km² (assuming 90% capacity factor)
  • Wind: 673-932 km² (assuming 32-47% capacity factor)

Highlight: Germany's wind power sector shows significant growth potential, with an expected generation of 204 billion kWh by 2030.

Vocabulary: Capacity factor refers to the ratio of actual energy output over a period to the potential energy output if the facility operated at full capacity continuously.
