The hydro power production in Germany is forecasted to slightly decline from 2024 to 2028, starting at 1.61 million tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024 and decreasing to 1.56 million tonnes by 2028. In comparison, 2023 recorded a similar production level, indicating a stagnation in growth. The expected change reflects a minor declining trend, with an average year-on-year decrease over the forecasted period.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential policy shifts focusing on renewable energy expansion that could impact hydro power dynamics.
Technological improvements in hydroelectric efficiency which might stabilize or reverse the declining trend.
Environmental factors and water availability that could influence hydro power capacity and production levels.
