As Germany accelerates its energy transition, the country’s power grid must evolve to meet growing demands. A recent study by the German Association of Energy and Water Industries (BDEW) and the German Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers' Association (ZVEI) projects that by 2045, Germany will require more than 500,000 km of new cables and approximately 500,000 transformers.
However, supply chain constraints could present significant challenges to grid expansion, potentially slowing the energy transition.
In this exclusive webinar, Sebastian Glatz, Managing Director at ZVEI, will present key insights from the study and examine the critical infrastructure developments needed to support Germany’s evolving power grid.
Key discussion points:
- Future technology requirements for Germany’s distribution and transmission networks
- The impact of supply chain challenges on grid expansion
- Strategic recommendations to accelerate grid development
This session is part of the lead-up to CRU Wire & Cable Connections Summit 2025, where industry leaders will discuss the challenges and opportunities shaping the wire and cable sector.
Sign up today and join us on 11 April to gain exclusive insights into the future of Germany’s power grid.
