  "account": "Deutschland's energy mix has been dominated by renewable sources since early 2026, with wind power and solar energy playing a significant role. In the first half of 2026, wind power accounted for 30.6 percent of net electricity generation, followed by solar energy. The import surplus in electricity has shrunk from 8.3 to 0.6 Terawatt-hours (TWh) compared to the previous year. However, Germany still imports some electricity mainly due to economic reasons and the comparative pricing of energy sources in the European market. In terms of consumption, residential households use around 132 TWh annually, while the industrial sector consumes around 194 TWh. By 2038, Germany plans to phase out coal-based power generation and replace it with a mix of gas and renewable energy sources.",
