“Electricity consumption is growing, but reliable power plants are gradually closing down,” the newspaper article reads.
It is noted that Berlin may soon start having trouble covering peak loads at the expense of available resources. According to the company’s research, as early as 2025, the shortfall could be 4 gigawatts and by 2030, 30 gigawatts. In this scenario, in 2030 some 100 cases of power outages could be registered in the country, the maximum duration of which could be about 21 hours.
