The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy expects a gross electricity demand of 655 terawatt-hours in 2030, assuming a 65 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990. This is equivalent to an additional demand of 63 terawatt-hours (TWh) compared to the reference year 2018, as calculated by Prognos, the Fraunhofer ISI, and the Öko-Institut on behalf of the BMWi.
