Onshore wind leads at 12.7 GW under full overcast; 14.3 GW net imports cover the gap as solar fades at dusk.

Wind onshore 12.7 GW dominates the right half of the scene as dozens of tall three-blade turbines with white tubular towers and detailed nacelles stretching across rolling green hills, blades visibly turning in strong wind; solar 8.5 GW occupies the centre-right foreground as expansive arrays of aluminium-framed crystalline silicon PV panels on gentle slopes, their surfaces reflecting only grey diffuse light; biomass 4.2 GW appears in the centre as a cluster of industrial biomass plants with corrugated metal buildings, conveyor belts feeding wood chips, and short stacks emitting pale steam; brown coal 3.6 GW fills the left portion as two massive hyperbolic cooling towers with thick white steam plumes drifting in the wind, connected to a lignite power station with conveyor gantries and coal bunkers; natural gas 1.8 GW sits as a compact CCGT facility in the centre-left with a single tall exhaust stack and visible heat shimmer; hard coal 1.1 GW appears as a smaller coal plant behind the lignite station with a single rectangular cooling tower and dark coal stockpile; hydro 1.3 GW is rendered as a concrete run-of-river weir with churning white water in the left foreground; offshore wind 0.5 GW is barely visible as a faint line of tiny turbines on the far horizon. The sky is entirely overcast with heavy, oppressive stratiform clouds in deep greys and slate blues, conveying a sense of atmospheric weight reflecting the high electricity price. The lighting is late dusk at 18:00 in May — a narrow band of orange-red glow along the lower western horizon rapidly fading into darkening blue-grey sky above, the landscape already in deep shadow with the first warm sodium lights appearing at the industrial facilities. Lush late-spring vegetation — bright green deciduous trees in full leaf, wildflowers in meadows — shaped by 21°C warmth. Strong wind bends grasses and tree branches. Rendered as a highly detailed oil painting in the tradition of 19th-century German Romantic landscape painters such as Caspar David Friedrich and Carl Blechen — rich impasto brushwork, dramatic atmospheric depth, luminous colour transitions in the sky, meticulous engineering detail on every turbine nacelle, every panel frame, every cooling tower's parabolic curve and reinforced concrete ribbing. The composition balances industrial grandeur with natural landscape, feeling like a masterwork painting of the modern energy landscape. No text, no labels.
