Germany's hydro power gross electricity production is projected to steadily decline from 24.5 thousand GWh in 2024 to 23.76 thousand GWh by 2028. Although exact figures for 2023 are not provided, this forecast indicates a consistent downward trajectory over the next five years. Year-on-year variations show a gradual decrease, signaling a moderate but consistent decline in production capacity.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of climate change on water availability and the potential for technological advancements in hydroelectric efficiency. Additionally, policy shifts towards greener energy sources and energy mix diversification could further influence hydro power's contribution to Germany's electricity grid.
