Wind leads at 21.2 GW but full overcast and 11.2 GW net imports push prices to 130 EUR/MWh.

Wind onshore 17.4 GW dominates the right two-fifths of the scene as dozens of tall three-blade turbines with white lattice towers stretching across rolling green hills, blades turning slowly in light wind; brown coal 7.5 GW occupies the left quarter as a massive lignite power station with four hyperbolic cooling towers emitting thick pale steam plumes; wind offshore 3.8 GW appears as a distant row of turbines on the far-right horizon above a sliver of grey North Sea; natural gas 3.7 GW is rendered as two compact CCGT units with slender exhaust stacks and thin heat shimmer in the centre-left; biomass 3.8 GW sits beside them as a cluster of low industrial buildings with a wood-chip storage dome and a single squat chimney; solar 2.8 GW appears as a modest field of aluminium-framed crystalline silicon panels in the centre foreground, their surfaces dull and reflectionless under heavy cloud; hard coal 2.3 GW is a smaller coal plant behind the lignite station with a single square stack trailing dark smoke; hydro 1.7 GW is a concrete run-of-river dam on a small river in the lower-left foreground. Time of day is 06:00 dawn in June — the sky is a deep blue-grey pre-dawn light with no direct sun, the horizon showing only the faintest pale steel-blue glow beneath an unbroken 100% overcast ceiling that presses down oppressively, reflecting the high electricity price. Temperature is 13.4°C and vegetation is lush early-summer green but muted in the dim light. The atmosphere is heavy, humid, and brooding. Style: highly detailed oil painting in the tradition of 19th-century German Romantic landscape masters — Caspar David Friedrich's atmospheric depth merged with Adolph Menzel's industrial precision — rich dark colour palette of slate blues, moss greens, and ash greys, visible confident brushwork, meticulous engineering detail on every turbine nacelle, cooling tower, and panel frame.
