Thanks to generous feed-in tariffs and other incentives, Germany’s wind and solar installations have soared over the past two decades to the point that renewables could cover half of the country’s electricity demand. Power-to-gas involves using excess renewable power to manufacture carbon-neutral synthetic methane.
