Electricity Data
Since a few weeks, the Association of European Transmission System Operators, ENTSO-E, does not provide the raw power generation data with the usual reliability. As a result, one or more power generation technologies are occasionally missing in the live display of the Agorameter. The missing data is usually updated within a few hours and reported afterwards, so that retrospective data can be retrieved completely. ENTSO-E has informed us that the problem is known and will be fixed as soon as possible.

Details for "Power Generation and Consumption"
This chart tracks changes in power consumption as well as in the production of power from conventional and renewable sources (broken down by solar, wind, water, and biomass). Clicking on the grey legend items displays the share contributed by conventional sources.
When generation output exceeds the demand curve (the red line), then Germany exports electricity, leading to a net export situation. When generation output falls below the demand curve, then Germany is a net power importer.
The default view is a two-day time range. You can adjust the chart to view a time range of your choice. The earliest possible starting date is 01.01.2012. Note that the European date format is used (day, month, year).
The time resolution in the chart is 1 hour for time ranges up to 31 days. The time resolution is reduced to 1 day for longer time ranges in order to ensure quicker loading. In general, the time required to process and display a given chart increases as the time range grows larger.
To obtain a high-resolution vector image as a PDF or SVG file, please click on the menu symbol to the top right of the chart.
Hover with the mouse over each curve to obtain precise data for specific points in time. By clicking on the items in the legend you can switch individual elements in the figure on and off.
To obtain other Agorameter charts for the same time range, click the arrows below the chart.
If you are using the Agorameter from another time zone than CET, please note that the Agorameter uses your computer’s local time.

Details for "Future-Agorameter"
The Future-Agorameter displays one possible power generation and consumption situation in the future. For simplicity and comparability we assume the same characteristics for renewables’ generation in the future as we have today. Future power consumption is also based on historical and present data.
A module specifically designed for this cause by Prognos AG optimises the power consumption of new consumers such as electric vehicles or heat pumps as well as the industrial power consumption of climate neutral technologies. All assumptions concerning renewables deployment, power consumption, etc. are in line with the Agora’s publication “climate neutral Germany 2045” available on Agora’s website.
The difference between demand and renewable generation shows electricity exports / curtailment of RES when renewable generation is higher than demand. When demand exceeds renewable power generation the difference is the residual load, meaning electricity imports or conventional power generation.
By default the time frame shown is the same as the one shown in the regular Agorameter but can be changed to a different time frame. The future year to be displayed can also be chosen via a dropdown menu (any year between 2030 and 2040). The time resolution in the chart is 1 hour for time ranges up to 31 days. The time resolution is reduced to 1 day for longer time ranges in order to ensure quicker loading. In general, the time required to process and display a given chart increases as the time range grows larger.
Sometimes the live data is incomplete or missing entirely. This problem is usually resolved within 48 hours maximum.
If you are using the Agorameter from another time zone than CET, please note that the Agorameter uses your computer’s local time.
A more detailed explanation of all assumptions and parameters can be found in the Future Agorameter’s documentation.
Details for "Conventional Power Generation"
This chart tracks changes in electricity generation from conventional power plants.

Details for "Power Prices, Generation and Consumption"
This chart tracks changes in electricity generation and consumption, as well as the spot market price on the European Power Exchange (EPEX).
When the top edge of grey area (total domestic generation) rises above the demand curve (the red line), then Germany exports electricity, leading to a net export situation. When generation output falls below the demand curve, then Germany is a net power importer.
