Brown coal (12.7 GW) and hard coal (5.2 GW) dominate a windless, post-sunset German grid at 164.7 EUR/MWh.
Grid analysis
Claude AI
At 20:00 on a calm, clear March evening, the German grid is running almost exclusively on thermal generation, with brown coal providing 12.7 GW (70%) and hard coal contributing 5.2 GW (29%), together accounting for 98.4% of the 18.1 GW total. Renewables are effectively absent: solar is offline after sunset, onshore wind registers zero in near-still conditions (3.6 km/h), and offshore wind contributes a negligible 0.3 GW. The reported consumption of 0.0 GW alongside 18.1 GW of generation suggests a data gap in the demand figure rather than a true surplus; the day-ahead price of 164.7 EUR/MWh is consistent with a tight, coal-dominated evening supply stack under low wind conditions. This is a textbook Dunkelflaute evening where the absence of wind and solar forces the system back onto its lignite and hard-coal baseload fleet.

Beneath a starless vault the brown towers breathe their ancient carbon hymn, uncontested and immense. No blade turns, no panel gleams — only the furnace-light of deep earth answers the darkened nation's call.

Residual load = consumption − wind − solar. It is the net demand that dispatchable
plants — coal, gas, biomass, hydro, storage — plus cross-border exchanges must balance.
When it is high, expensive thermal capacity is needed and prices rise with it.
As residual load falls, wind and solar displace more thermal generation, pulling prices down.
When it turns negative, wind and solar output alone exceeds all consumption:
controllable plants ramp to their technical minimums, storage absorbs what it can,
and the grid exports heavily — often with prices turning negative too.
