The order of the following subsidies: the abolition of the tax exemption for kerosene, the reduction of the electricity price exemptions for industry and the exit from the tax relief for electricity generation. Mathematically, the federal government alone could save around 73 million tons of CO2 and 18 billion euros in tax money annually. In the middle of the ranking are: the...

military matter. Nuclear researchers have to submit to the wishes and demands of the military. However, a few things were already completely clear to the strategists back then: Nuclear power plants for generating electricity do not make economic sense: they are too dangerous, too expensive and because of the incredibly high costs for disposal, they are simply not competitive... But if the electricity and that... .

divide: cheap electricity for the north, expensive electricity for the south. Maybe the energy transition will work. Photovoltaics and wind power are the cheapest ways to generate electricity. But southern Germany has a problem with wind power. It was sabotaged there for a long time. So networks are needed to bring cheap wind power from northern Germany. And that's exactly why they pay...

[...] Newly installed PV and wind power capacity has saved EU electricity consumers an estimated €2021 billion over 2023-100, according to the IEA, by displacing more expensive fossil fuel power generation. According to the new IEA report, wholesale electricity prices in Europe in 2022 would have fallen by 8...
could fall permanently from this year. We are at the top, now things are probably going downhill. This assessment comes from the Global Electricity Review by the think tank Ember, which annually compiles electricity generation data from more than 200 countries and territories. The data provides a deep insight into where the energy transition in electricity production is successful - and where it is not. Because how steep the...
Solar power becomes heat Municipalities are increasingly asking themselves how they can make their citizens independent of fossil energy imports as quickly as possible. With power-to-heat, electricity generation can be linked to on-site heat consumption. In recent years, electricity generation has become increasingly regional and greener, but the...

We have a law passed by the Bundestag to phase out nuclear energy and that gives us very clear guidelines: [...] to end electricity generation through nuclear energy. And we have prepared for that and plan to do that too to take Neckarwestheim off the grid. I was a bit surprised by the intensity...
