The emerging eMobility trends in Germany invoke a series of technical and political questions. One of which is whether the electricity demand, which will undoubtedly increase through eMobility, can be met by an increased power production and how the current official projections of production and demand correspond. This paper examines actual recent electricity data and attempts to answer said question for the year 2030. The employed method, a Monte Carlo simulation, shows that indeed, the power consumption in 2030 will likely exceed the national electricity production if the production capabilities will not be increased more than currently anticipated by official institutions and the government. Integrating a large number of electric vehicles into the German automobile fleet will amplify this effect.     «
