The current government is trying to expand renewables strongly as a response to the energy crisis and to tackle climate change. This question aims at electricity, not primary energy consumption.
Update 2024-09-12 (PST): Resolution will be based on the Bundesnetzagentur's monitoring report for 2024. (AI summary of creator comment)

@Gideon37 Report is available: https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/SharedDocs/Pressemitteilungen/DE/2025/20250103_smard.html Renewables at 59%. Please also resolve the other options.
@Primer resolved the 3 NOs. having issues getting the data on grid expansion. some articles are talking about projects stuck in limbo, others talk about how much has been approved, but I cant find data on the 2023 goals vs the 2024 shortfall
@Stralor okay looks like the current running total is 16,800 km they want to approve. 2024 brought the total approved to 2,700. so do we use the 2023 target of ~7,500 or the up to date 16,800? and is the gap built or is the approved amount what we're measuring? I could go YES or NO here depending on all that
@Primer Alright I've looked at the other comments. Looks like we're counting the built grid, not just the planned and approved grid. Even with the original 2023 numbers that falls short. Resolving.
@Primer you can find Bundesnetzagentur‘s monitoring report below, I intend to base the resolution on the report for 2024
@Gideon37 The 13GW solar energy construction goal can resolve Yes:

Currently "grid expansion is 6,000 kilometres and seven years behind schedule."
Germany's net electricity generation was slighter lower in 2022 due to a drop in consumption. The share of renewables in gross electricity consumption was 45%, up from 40% in 2021. –Monitoring report 2023 from Bundesnetzagentur
I assume this is the metric we aim for with "total energy consumption".
