Germany: electricity 56% renewables, 4% GDP growth since 2021Q1, 6.4% unemployment

Denmark: electricity 92% renewables, 14% GDP growth since 2021Q1, 2.7% unemployment

I don't think renewables are what's wrong with Germany, more likely it's a) their lack of infrastructure investment and maintenance in the past decade-an-a-half, b) their excessive coddling of established and well-connected businesses.
