Germany is one of the leaders in the development of renewable energy among the EU countries. Natural features and the use of new technologies allow Germany to develop actively certain types of renewable energy in its federal states. The aim of the study is to assess the renewable energy sector in the northern and southern states of Germany. In this work, the regulatory framework for renewable energy was studied; an analysis of the energy potential of the northern and southern federal states of Germany was carried out. A conclusion has been formulated about the predominance of wind energy in the northern lands, and solar and hydropower in the southern lands; about the presence of a number of problems in the renewable energy development.
