Strong wind dominates at 27 GW but 9.9 GW net imports needed as overcast evening eliminates solar.

Wind onshore 21.9 GW dominates the right two-thirds of the scene as vast ranks of three-blade turbines on lattice towers stretching across rolling green hills into the deep background, rotors spinning visibly in strong wind; wind offshore 5.2 GW appears as a distant cluster of larger turbines on the far-right horizon over a dark sea; brown coal 4.4 GW occupies the left foreground as two massive hyperbolic cooling towers with heavy white steam plumes drifting rightward in the wind, alongside a lignite conveyor and stockpile; biomass 4.2 GW sits left-centre as a mid-sized industrial plant with a tall stack and wood-chip storage silos; natural gas 2.7 GW is rendered centre-left as a compact CCGT facility with a single slim exhaust stack emitting a faint heat shimmer; hydro 1.7 GW appears as a small concrete dam with spillway in a valley in the mid-ground left; hard coal 0.9 GW is a smaller power station with a single square chimney beside the lignite complex; solar 1.1 GW is represented only by a few barely visible darkened PV panels on a rooftop, unlit and inactive. No sunshine whatsoever — the sky is completely dark, a deep navy-black night sky at 20:00 in June under 100% cloud cover, no stars visible, no twilight glow. All structures lit by warm sodium-orange streetlights and industrial floodlights casting pools of amber on wet-looking ground. Green summer foliage on trees bent by 22 km/h wind, grass rippling. The atmosphere feels heavy and oppressive, thick low clouds pressing down, reflecting the orange industrial glow from below, conveying the tension of a high-price 118 EUR/MWh grid state. Painted in the style of a highly detailed 19th-century German Romantic oil painting — rich impasto brushwork, dramatic chiaroscuro between artificial light and surrounding darkness, atmospheric depth with misty middle distances, meticulous engineering accuracy on every turbine nacelle, cooling tower curvature, and CCGT exhaust detail.
