Wind provides 26.2 GW at dusk, but 11.3 GW of net imports are needed to meet 52.3 GW demand.

Wind onshore 19.9 GW dominates the right two-thirds of the scene as vast ranks of three-blade turbines on lattice towers stretching across rolling green spring farmland, rotors spinning briskly in strong wind; wind offshore 6.3 GW appears as a distant cluster of larger turbines on the far-right horizon above a grey sea glimpsed through a gap in low hills; solar 5.7 GW is rendered as a modest field of aluminium-framed crystalline silicon PV panels in the centre-left foreground, their surfaces reflecting dim amber light from the low horizon; biomass 4.2 GW occupies the left-centre as a wood-chip-fed power station with a squat industrial chimney and wispy white exhaust; brown coal 2.2 GW fills the far left as a pair of hyperbolic cooling towers releasing thick steam plumes into the heavy overcast; natural gas 1.2 GW sits beside them as a compact CCGT plant with a single tall exhaust stack and thin heat shimmer; hard coal 0.6 GW is a small grate-fired unit with a dark brick stack just visible behind the gas plant; hydro 0.9 GW is suggested by a small dam and spillway in the left-foreground valley. The sky is a dusk scene at 18:00 in early April — a rapidly fading orange-red glow hugs the lower western horizon while the upper sky darkens to steel grey and deep slate blue, 83% cloud cover forming a low oppressive blanket of stratus. The atmosphere feels heavy and brooding, consistent with a high electricity price. Spring vegetation is fresh pale green, with budding deciduous trees and early wildflowers in meadow grass bending in 21 km/h wind. Temperature around 12°C is conveyed by figures in light jackets near the solar field. Style: highly detailed oil painting in the tradition of Caspar David Friedrich and Carl Blechen — rich layered colour, visible confident brushwork, dramatic atmospheric depth, luminous horizon glow against sombre upper sky — yet with meticulous engineering accuracy in every turbine nacelle, PV cell pattern, cooling tower curvature, and exhaust stack detail.
