Teuerungen. Was davon ist eingetreten? FREIBURG/BERLIN taz | Die Debatte über Atomenergie hört nicht auf. Auch weil diese allgemein als relativ klimafreundlich gilt: Im Vergleich zu Kohle- und Gaskraftwerken verursacht sie weniger CO₂-Emissionen. Selbst im IPCC-Bericht wird Kernenergie deshalb trotz ihrer Risiken als Möglichkeit erwähnt, zumindest einen kleinen Teil des Energiebedarfs...

Green hydrogen is becoming increasingly important - and with it the creation of storage capacities, according to an analysis for Germany's largest gas network operator. This requires the conversion of natural gas power plants and the construction of new salt caverns. It was only during the energy crisis that followed Putin's attack on Ukraine that many people realized how important large energy storage systems are. Almost every day...

According to experts, electricity prices will increasingly fall. “The more renewable energy systems with their low prices are in the electricity system, the less expensive wholesale gas power plants determine the electricity price,” said electricity market expert Fabian Huneke from the Agora Energiewende think tank. Renewables would already reduce future electricity prices. "You can see...
climate-damaging industries and their influence on politics are too strong. Business in the luxury segment of the automotive industry is too good, or electricity trading and the operation of coal and gas power plants are too lucrative. But one thing is certain: others will pay for the consequences of these policies and these transactions. People who don't protect themselves from high food prices and severe weather disasters...
because you invested in energy-saving technology in a timely manner? And how long should the subsidies last? They are actually only intended as a "bridge" until renewables have largely driven expensive gas-fired power plants out of the market.
