Auf X hat Ex-Gesundheitsminister Karl Lauterbach sieben Länder als Vorbilder bei den erneuerbaren Energien aufgezählt, darunter teils Länder, die zu den ärmsten der Welt zählen, etwa die Demokratische Republik Kongo und Äthiopien. https://t.co/6Pe700KasG https://t.co/CktJE9WKre #ErneuerbareEnergien #Nachhaltigkeit #Klima
The UN warns that the global temperature rise could soon exceed the 1.5-degree mark and demands a return below this value as quickly as possible to avoid catastrophic impacts. (translated)
China has produced more electricity from solar energy than from coal for the first time, with photovoltaic systems having an installed capacity of 1,286 gigawatts being the largest electricity producers in the country. (translated)
China has produced more electricity from solar energy than from coal power plants for the first time, which represents a significant advance in the expansion of renewable energy, despite a decline in the installation of photovoltaic systems. (translated)
In China, solar power plants have for the first time replaced coal as the largest source of electricity, with an installed capacity of 1,286 gigawatts, while coal-fired power plants reached 1,285 gigawatts, although the expansion of photovoltaic systems has slowed down. (translated)
Grüne vor 25 Jahren: "Wir müssen ganz viele PV-Anlagen bauen, dann wird Strom billig. Die Sonne liefert kostenlos. " 👉🏼 Strompreis steigt. Grüne vor 20 Jahren: "Achso, nachts scheint ja keine Sonne. Wir müssen daher Windkraftanlagen bauen, die auch nachts laufen, DANN wird Strom billig. 👉🏼 Strompreis steigt. Grüne vor 15 Jahren: "Hmm, der Windstrom ist zu ungleich verteilt. Baut mehr Anlagen im Süden, noch paar Trassen dazu, noch mehr PV, alles subventionieren. Dann, ja dann, Freunde, wird der Strom endlich günstig." 👉🏼 Strompreis steigt. Grüne vor 5 Jahren: "Jetzt ist es klar, der teure Atomstrom war schuld, der verstopft obendrein die Netze. Reißt die letzten Anlagen ab, dann werden die Strompreise ins Bodenlose stürzen, alles wird gut." 👉🏼 Strompreis steigt. Grüne heute: "BATTERIEN!!! Batteriespeicher werden all unsere Probleme lösen. Und Wasserstoff. Jaaa, endlich wird es auf Jahrzehnte sagenhaft günstigen Strom geben. 👉🏼 Völlig unklar was passieren wird 😉 #Energiepolitik #Strompreise #ErneuerbareEnergien
Electric cars are CO2-free in operation when the electricity is generated from renewable sources. That was the case yesterday, is the case today, and will be the case tomorrow. But if that is "your" study, you can surely explain why it is published in "Bild" and not in a peer-reviewed journal? (translated)
@Hirn_aus_Hack Könnte m.E. daran liegen, dass immer dann, wenn der Strom durch EE billiger werden sollte, er statt dessen teurer geworden ist. Die Leute kaufen Euch das mit der Kugel Eis nicht mehr ab. #Energie #ErneuerbareEnergien #Strompreise
Energiewende Ade.... Norwegen will nicht unsere Batterie sein und den Wind und PV Strom Europas ausbalancieren. Neue Stromleitungen werden nicht gebaut... Damit ist diese Energiewende endgültig gescheitert ohne große Speicher! #Energiewende #ErneuerbareEnergien #Nachhaltigkeit
China has successfully tested a flying wind turbine that generates electricity at an altitude of 4000 meters. (translated)
The Austrian grid operator APG has determined that the dry summer of 2026 led to a 46 percent decrease in hydropower, which made electricity supply more complex and resulted in an increase in electricity imports from abroad. (translated)
Deutschland leistet sich zwei parallele Stromerzeugungssysteme mit einer Gesamtleistung von 284 GW, das ist knapp das Vierfache der Spitzenlast. Da während der Dunkelflaute im Herbst die zwei großen Flächen rechts auf praktisch Null zusammenschrumpfen, und Kohle nach der Kernkraft auch noch stillgelegt werden soll, müssen wir nun schnell 20 Gaskraftwerke zubauen. Ausschreibung läuft. Gleichzeitig sind Milliardeninvestitionen in Batteriespeicher geplant, die aber nur als Netzpuffer dienen, und in einer Dunkelflaute abschalten. Es ist definitiv ausgeschlossen, mit diesem Setting jemals preiswerten Strom zu bekommen. #Energiepolitik #ErneuerbareEnergien #Stromversorgung
In Germany, the expansion target for solar energy has already been reached in 2026, as the installed capacity has increased to over 128 gigawatts peak (GWp); however, there are concerns that the upcoming interim goals could be jeopardized due to planned political changes, which requires an accelerated pace of expansion to achieve the legally mandated 215 GW by 2030. (translated)
The expansion of solar energy in Germany has already reached the target of 128 gigawatts set for 2026; however, there are concerns about achieving future expansion goals due to planned changes in the political framework that could jeopardize the necessary annual growth. (translated)
It is one of the best global developments ever: poorer countries are being industrialized and skipping the fossil stage that we are still stuck in at the moment. We would have built wind farms and solar plants there if we had transitioned our economy earlier. (translated)
The Suedlink, a 700-kilometer long power line connecting wind farms in Schleswig-Holstein with southern Germany, has now crossed the Elbe, with the completion of the entire infrastructure project aimed for the end of 2028 to meet the increasing electricity demand with renewable energies. (translated)
The electricity from new gas power plants is so expensive because they - good for the climate - do not often run, as there is usually enough electricity from wind & PV. In winter it can be different when there is no wind & snow is on the PV panels. Battery storage is great, but it doesn't help then. (translated)
Markus Winter, the Chief Technology Officer of Windkraft Simonsfeld, explains that the construction of wind power plants today takes significantly longer due to massive pushback and emphasizes the need for a faster transition to renewable energies while discussing the role of disinformation and political obstacles. (translated)
Cheaper, built faster, more sustainable. Wind and solar energy are surpassing nuclear power worldwide. Batteries as storage are becoming increasingly cheaper. Gas and later hydrogen will be used for peak loads and periods of low generation. Nuclear power is too expensive, requires water, and produces waste. (translated)
Elisabeth Zehetner, Secretary of State in the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs, Energy and Tourism, sees Austria on the path to becoming a "power-exporting country" and calls for a modern adjustment of the funding system for photovoltaics, while emphasizing that the energy supply remains stable despite drought and falling water levels, relying on a broad mix of renewable energies.
