The author wrote that Norway has already stopped electricity aid to Germany and France will soon follow. He claimed that both countries would prefer to consume their cheap electricity themselves rather than keeping the German economy running. He stated that this is mean or realistic; at the same time, the energy transition is killing Germany. #Energiewende #Deutschland #Stromversorgung #NO #FR #DE (translated)

GFrei.News reported that the planned flooding of the lignite mining areas of Hambach and Garzweiler is deliberately destroying the German economy and ending 100 years of affordable energy security. Plans from 1977 and 1995 had intended to fill exhausted open-pit mines with water from the Rhine and to renature them. Now, the approval for lignite mining is being revoked, although, according to the author, there is still enough coal there to supply Germany for another 100 years. Lignite is almost as cheap as nuclear power and is also used for briquettes, lignite dust, and fluidized bed coal, wrote GFrei.News. A fast-track approval process has been initiated for flooding the mining areas still containing coal, and the construction of a 45-kilometer long pipeline has begun at a high three-digit million amount. By 2030, this will destroy a resource wealth worth around 1 trillion euros, according to the author. A later resumption of mining would take decades and be too expensive. GFrei.News referred to the flooding as the permanent destruction of energy security and fuel worth 1 trillion euros. The excavator 293 will also be decommissioned: the vehicle weighs more than 14,000 tons, is 225 meters tall, and is the largest land vehicle in the world. It has been in operation for 30 years and is a symbol of German engineering and national pride, the author wrote. GFrei.News accused the state of "state terrorism against its own people" and wrote that the consequences would be far worse than the explosion of NordStream. The author hoped that the AfD would come to power in time to prevent the plans. #Energiewende #Braunkohle #Energiesicherheit (translated)

Energy economist Stefan Lechner criticizes the planned construction of a huge data center in Gießen, as its power consumption of 65 megawatts would exceed more than double the total electricity consumption of the city, and thus have significant negative impacts on climate protection and energy efficiency. #Rechenzentren #Energiewende #Stromverbrauch (translated)

Monika Gruber compared the statement that the energy transition means one less beer for every European to the earlier promise that it would cost everyone in Germany just one scoop of ice cream. She ironically referred to the earlier statement as a "scream." #Energiewende #Bier #Deutschland (translated)

Morlock No. 2 wrote that currently 23 percent of electricity is generated from wind and 27 percent from coal. Despite the energy transition, hundreds of billions of euros have been rendered ineffective according to his depiction. Furthermore, ten times as much CO₂ is being emitted as in France, even though the country uses nuclear power plants, he wrote and called for finding the mistake. https://t.co/WUgsuv6LsT #Energiewende #Klimaschutz #Windenergie (translated)

The author said Europe needed to deliver for its citizens and help businesses thrive, arguing that this required cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, securing affordable energy, accelerating the transition to renewable energy, ensuring Europe’s security and delivering a suitable budget. https://t.co/HcKAz8A62Q #EU #Europa #Energiewende #EU

The article argues that a ban on new combustion engine vehicles by 2035 may no longer be necessary, as the development towards fully electric vehicles is progressing and the EU Commission plans to only require a 90 percent reduction in emissions from car manufacturers. #Energiewende #Elektromobilität #Verbrennerverbot (translated)

The author wrote that the market for internal combustion engines is dying very quickly in China and will also collapse in Europe. He described the fight among lobbyists as an own goal. In his opinion, an early and clear end date for the combustion engine would have provided German manufacturers with planning safety and incentives. https://t.co/W6mYknAp4d #Energiewende #Umweltschutz #Automobilindustrie #CN #DE #EU (translated)

The post said the V4 had joined forces to address high energy prices and called on the European Commission, on behalf of more than 60 million citizens of V4 countries, to take concrete steps to lower electricity prices and review the emissions trading system. It also said the group would not allow something it described as “senseless”. https://t.co/irSTcabbom #Energiewende #V4 #Hochenergiepreise #CZ #HU #PL #SK

Artificial intelligence stated that the costs for the energy transition and illegal migration amount to 11.3 trillion euros. Per household, this corresponds to 280,000 euros, or the equivalent of an ownership apartment with about 85 square meters of living space per German household. This was described as a deliberate impoverishment of the population. Additional expenses, including climate protection both domestically and abroad, as well as financing Ukraine, are not yet included in this total. #Energiewende #Migration #Kosten (translated)

The goal of making Germany climate-neutral by 2045 is unrealistic – and the idea of spending six trillion euros for it is outright ludicrous. FDP General Secretary Martin Hagen (45) to BILD: "The goal of making Germany climate-neutral by 2045 is unrealistic – and the idea of spending six trillion euros for it is outright ludicrous." #Klimaschutz #Energiewende #Klimaneutralität (translated)

The German 'energy transition' with the phase-out of both fossil coal and CO2-free nuclear power has not been copied by any country in the world. Michael Eilfort (63), board member of the Foundation for Market Economy, also warns BILD of overly ambitious goals: "The German 'energy transition' with the phase-out of both fossil coal and CO2-free nuclear power has not been copied by any country in the world." #Klimaschutz #Energiewende #Klimaneutralität (translated)

Owners of gas heating systems must prepare for rising costs, as the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs plans to transfer the financial burden for the introduction of green gases exclusively to private consumers, while industry and other sectors are exempted. #Grüngasquote #Wärmewende #Energiewende (translated)

The Australian exchange student wrote that the energy transition costs 5.5 trillion euros and mass migration costs 5.8 trillion euros. Without leftist politics, Germany could have literally built cities on the moon; the money has been spent on nothing and for nothing. #Energiewende #Migrationspolitik #Deutschland (translated)
