Summary

Description
English: In 2018 or earlier estimated power demand over a week in May 2012 and May 2020, Germany.
Caution! This chart contains incorrect forecasts that did not actually come true. This was already known at the time of upload in September 2020. The graph forecasts that solar power generation would exceed 40GW almost daily in May 2020. As can be seen in the actual realized generation (smard.de), solar power generation remained below 32GW in every hour of the entire month of May 2020.
Deutsch: Achtung! Diese Grafik enthält fehlerhafte Prognosen, die in Wahrheit nicht eingetreten sind. Dies war bereits zum Zeitpunkt des Hochladens im September 2020 bekannt. In der Grafik wird prognostiziert, dass die Solarstromerzeugung im Mai 2020 fast täglich eine Leistung von 40GW übersteigt. Wie in der tatsächlich realisierten Erzeugung (smard.de) zu sehen ist, blieb die Solarstromerzeugung in jeder Stude des gesamten Mai 2020 unterhalb von 32GW.
