In 2025, the International Energy Agency (IEA), in collaboration with the German Federal Government, released the latest Energy Policy Review of Germany, reinforcing the essential role of public policy in driving a safe, sustainable and economically viable energy transition. Against a backdrop of worsening climate change, the report underlines that energy policy goes beyond the energy sector: it is a key instrument for achieving long-term environmental, economic and social goals.
The study highlights that government action needs to go beyond national needs, incorporating the regional context and contributing to addressing global challenges. The IEA’s detailed analysis brings together the expertise of its member countries and offers practical recommendations for Germany to maintain its global leadership in promoting a low-carbon energy mix. In this sense, the report positions the country as a model of good practice, showing how consistent political action can be decisive in strengthening global political will and driving consensus towards a sustainable and affordable energy future.
Priority Challenges and Leadership Opportunities for Germany
The IEA Review assesses the main challenges facing the German energy sector and proposes solutions based on international best practices. Key themes include the need to accelerate the transition to renewable sources, ensure the security of energy supply and promote technological innovation with a focus on efficiency and decarbonization.
The document also identifies strategic areas where Germany can serve as an example for other countries. Germany’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions, diversifying its energy mix and strengthening public policies geared towards innovation are highlighted as areas of excellence that deserve to be replicated internationally.
In addition, the IEA Review emphasizes the importance of exchanging best practices between nations, stimulating mutual learning and cooperation on a global scale. This effort not only strengthens the collective capacity to address the climate emergency, but also reinforces Germany’s leadership as a reference in public policies for a safe, climate-friendly and socially responsible energy transformation.
