17. The German federal government announced ambitious goals
for the reduction of GHG and growth of RES, especially after
the decision to shut down nuclear power plants by 2022.
The EEG has stimulated a significant growth of RES in
Germany for more than ten years – significant share of RES at
gross electricity production.
