Germany has made great sacrifice to be a leader in renewables. An example for other nations of what can be accomplished with confident determination.
Germany is heavily relying on coal: https://www.cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/coal-germany
It's also building inefficient LNG terminals for liquid gas. Far away from being a leader in renewables.
Furthermore EVs are not a solution for climate change, but rather to save the car industry, which is particularly strong in Germany.
The past conservative governments have slowed down renewables unnecessarily. But one of the biggest successes of the world destruction lobby is to make people believe the energy transition was hard. Don't focus too much on the little things. Look at the big picture: https://www.energy-charts.info/charts/renewable_share/chart.htm?l=en&c=DE&interval=year&legendItems=01
