 By the end of the 1990s,Germany had transformed itself into a renewable-energy leader. With a fraction of the wind and solar resources of the US, Germany now has almost three times as much installed wind capacity (38 per cent of global capacity) and is a world leader in solar photovoltaics as well.
Germany now generates 4.5 per cent of its electricity with the wind and appears on track to meet government targets of 25 per cent by 2025.
