Two independent sources report a new record for wind power output in Germany, both for the 21st of December 2015.

Bloomberg says a maximum of 32.9 GW windpower was achieved on Monday:

and Agora says 35.9 GW was achived the same day:

The Transparency page at the EEX supports Bloomberg’s 32.9GW:

whilest Fraunhofer ISE supports Agora with 35.4 GW:
