•'Dark lull' in German energy transition sparks political debate
72% Informative
Twice in recent months electricity prices temporarily spiked in Germany because of a lack of both sunlight and wind to power its solar panels and turbines.
The phenomenon -- dubbed a "dark lull" -- briefly sent the price soaring to 936 euros ($ 972 ) per megawatt hour on December 12 , twelve times the average for the preceding weeks .
Renewables have become an ever more important part of Germany 's energy mix, accounting for an average 60 percent of its electricity production so far this year .
