The German legal framework for BESS projects is currently also in a process of changes: The German parliament adopted a comprehensive energy reform package on 31 January 2025, which includes relevant changes for BESS projects with the aim to further support the growth of storage capacities in.
On October 29, 2025, German energy giant RWE held a groundbreaking ceremony for Germany’s largest battery storage project at the Gundremmingen energy site in Bavaria. Bavaria’s Minister President Markus Söder and RWE CEO Markus Krebber jointly attended this historic moment. Just four days earlier.
Germany is making progress in its transition to renewable energy: In the first half of 2024, 61.5% of electricity was generated from renewable sources, according to the Federal Statistical Ofice. In the same period of the previous year, the figure was 53.3%. This upward trend is likely to continue.
RWE has officially begun construction of Germany’s largest battery storage facility at its Gundremmingen site in Bavaria. The facility will feature 400MW of power output and a storage capacity of 700 megawatt-hours, utilising the existing grid infrastructure from the now-decommissione
