  "account": "Germany has already produced more solar power this year by September 27th than it did in the entire previous year. According to the Bundesverband Solarwirtschaft (BSW-Solar), 90.2 Terawatt-hours of solar power were generated by September 27th, surpassing the total of 90.0 Terawatt-hours in the entire 2025 year. The record was attributed to an unusual number of sunny hours and the continued expansion of photovoltaic systems. New installations were set up in residential and commercial buildings as well as on open land. At the same time, battery storage systems are gaining importance. BSW-Solar CEO Carsten Körnig stated, \"Solar energy is no longer a niche technology. It is citizen energy, corporate energy, and a backbone of our power supply.\" However, Körnig warned about potential investment barriers due to the planned EEG revision in 2027 and the so-called network package. \"The solar record is cause for joy, but not for complacency. Now is the time we cannot afford to impede the investment readiness of citizens and companies.\" The German government plans to make the expansion of renewables more cost-efficient, secure, and relevant to actual network capacity, specifically through better regional control of additions and the phasing out of subsidies for small, mostly privately installed solar systems with less than 25 kilowatt installed capacity starting in 2027.",
