Wind leads at 16.1 GW but full overcast and fading solar leave a 12.7 GW net import gap at elevated prices.

Wind onshore 16.1 GW dominates the scene as dozens of tall three-blade turbines with white tubular towers and detailed nacelles stretching across the right half and centre-right of the composition, blades turning in moderate wind across rolling green summer hills. Solar 8.4 GW appears in the centre-left as expansive fields of aluminium-framed crystalline silicon PV panels catching only diffuse grey light, their surfaces dull under the overcast. Biomass 3.6 GW is rendered in the mid-ground left as a cluster of compact industrial facilities with wood-chip silos and modest exhaust stacks emitting thin white vapour. Wind offshore 2.6 GW is visible on the distant horizon as a row of offshore turbines barely emerging from a hazy grey sea line. Brown coal 1.2 GW occupies the far left background as two large hyperbolic cooling towers with faint wisps of steam rising. Hydro 1.2 GW appears as a concrete dam and spillway nestled in a forested valley at the far left edge. Hard coal 0.5 GW is a single dark industrial stack with a thin plume near the cooling towers. Natural gas 0.3 GW is a small compact CCGT unit with a single exhaust stack barely visible beside the coal plant. The sky is entirely overcast with heavy, oppressive stratiform clouds in layers of dark pewter and slate grey, conveying high electricity prices. The lighting is late-summer dusk at 18:00 in Berlin: a dim orange-red glow barely visible on the lower western horizon, the sky above darkening rapidly from grey to deep blue-grey, the landscape lit in muted amber and fading twilight tones. The temperature is warm at 23 degrees, with lush dark-green deciduous foliage on oaks and beeches, summer wildflowers in the meadows, and humid atmosphere lending depth haze. Painted in the style of a highly detailed 19th-century German Romantic oil painting — rich impasto brushwork, deep atmospheric perspective, dramatic chiaroscuro between the fading western horizon glow and the darkening overcast — but with meticulous engineering accuracy on every turbine nacelle, every PV panel frame, every cooling tower's hyperbolic curve.
