energy generation
The process of producing or converting usable energy, for example electricity or heat, from various primary energy sources such as coal, gas, solar power, or wind.
Die Energieerzeugung aus erneuerbaren Quellen wird staatlich gefördert.
Energy generation from renewable sources is subsidized by the government.
This word is a compound of 'Energie' (energy) and 'Erzeugung' (generation/production). 'Erzeugung' comes from the verb 'erzeugen' (to generate/produce), which means 'produzieren' (to produce) or 'herstellen' (to manufacture). So it literally describes the production of energy.
Die effiziente Energieerzeugung ist ein wichtiges politisches Ziel.
Efficient energy generation is an important political goal.
To name the energy source, the preposition 'aus' (from) is almost always used. Typical combinations are 'die Energieerzeugung aus Windkraft' (energy generation from wind power), 'aus Solarenergie' (from solar energy), or 'aus fossilen Brennstoffen' (from fossil fuels).
Deutschland will die Energieerzeugung aus Kohle schrittweise beenden.
Germany wants to gradually end energy generation from coal.
The word 'Energieerzeugung' (energy generation) belongs to technical and written language. It is often found in the news, political discussions, and scientific texts about the environment and the economy.
In dem Bericht wird die weltweite Energieerzeugung analysiert.
The report analyzes global energy generation.

Energiegewinnung and Energieerzeugung can both refer to the technical process of obtaining usable energy such as electricity or heat. Energiegewinnung tends to emphasize obtaining energy from a primary source, while Energieerzeugung tends to emphasize producing or converting usable energy. In many contexts, both words are possible; the perspective determines the choice.
