16 May 2022, Brandenburg, Sieversdorf: At the golden hour, about an hour before sunrise, the rotor blades of wind turbines turn in the wind. The state of Brandenburg ranks second among the German states with the largest installed capacity of wind turbines. Thus, a good third of the electricity demand is generated from wind. With more than 7,400 megawatts (MW) of total installed capacity, Brandenburg now ranks second after Lower Saxony. Photo: Patrick Pleul/dpa
