Germany’s many thousands of solar panels set a new production record on Wednesday just as a heatwave is blanketing much of the continent.
Output reached as much as 36,848 megawatts at 12:45 p.m., according to data from the European Energy Exchange AG. That beats the previous record of 36,303MW reached on April 27 last year.
