German energy policy will not serve as a global energy policy blueprint, but as inspiration, according to the World Energy Council (WEC) Germany. In a survey, 60 percent of energy experts from 42 countries said the Energiewende could not serve as a global blueprint but 79 percent said aspects of German energy policy could be adopted in their respective countries.
Other key findings:
- Questioned about primary drivers of the energy transition, experts in EU countries cited climate protection (45 percent) and energy security (28 percent), compared to 5 percent and 23 percent for the rest of the world. Economic growth (36 percent) and increasing the availability of energy (27 percent) were the primary drivers for non-EU countries
- In the long term, most experts (71 percent) expected German energy policy to strengthen the country鈥檚 economic power
- Expansion of the electricity grid and digitalisation were viewed as relevant issues in most countries (90 and 88 percent respectively)
