The number of balcony power plants is increasing in Germany.

Installations of balcony power plants are becoming increasingly popular in Germany. According to the Federal Network Agency of Germany, at least 220,000 such stations were installed in the first half of 2021, but the actual number may be closer to half a million, as some devices have yet to be registered. The growth in the installation of balcony power plants is compared to last year, and the demand for them remains high, as registration has become easier and equipment has become cheaper.

Popularity of solar installations in different regions of Germany

The states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Bavaria installed the most balcony power plants. However, when considering the number of stations per thousand households, Lower Saxony and Rhineland-Palatinate lead, with 34 and 31 installations per 1000 households, respectively. In North Rhine-Westphalia and Bavaria, this number is around 23-24.

It was previously announced that German scientists are proposing a revolutionary method for storing renewable energy - large concrete balls submerged in ocean water.

The increasing popularity of balcony power plants indicates a growing interest among residents of Germany in green energy. Further development of this industry could impact the country's energy security and help reduce carbon emissions.

Since the beginning of this year, the installation of balcony power plants has become increasingly widespread in Germany, becoming a popular and accessible choice for residents in the field of green energy. Data indicates a growing interest in renewable energy sources and the potential for their implementation at the household level, which could have a positive impact on the ecology and energy stability of the country.
