436.300 jobs: the energy transition’s record – and why it is hanging in the balance

In 2025, 436,300 people in Germany were employed in the renewable energy sector – a new record high since the introduction of the EEG. This is shown in the Bertelsmann Stiftung’s latest Focus Paper. However, it would be a mistake to simply celebrate this good news and carry on as before. The same study shows just how quickly a record high can turn into a slump.

The energy transition and Germany as an industrial hub: Why Germany must consider both together

If Germany expands its renewable energy capacity but imports most of the technology required to do so – solar panels, wind turbine components, battery storage systems and grid equipment – a new form of dependency will arise: on a small number of supplier countries, currently China in particular; on money that largely flows out of the country; and on industrial expertise that we will find very difficult to rebuild later on.
