Are they though? A big fraction of those panels are made in countries other than China. The panels generally generate still more than 70% of their original power after 20 or 30 years. They're hardend against hail, can be insured and do

The turbines of ENERCON don't need "rare-earths", because of their ring generator https://www.enercon.de/technologie/komponenten/

If you're interested in the historical process, personally I like the videos of PBS Eons a lot: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=pbs+eons+coal

Alright then, we agree.

Let's not.

That's why we have wind energy in Germany. The wind is mostly strong in the winter and the sun in summer. Soon we will have energy from storage (hydrogen, thermal, and some batteries), too.

Incorrect. While would is part of it, there's also grass, leaves, and agricultural waste as well as biomass collected from water treatment plants.

A surplus is already generated on specific days. At the moment the extra energy is thrown away, in case you didn't know.

You just repeat the talking points prepared for Russian assets. Boring.

They are awesome and in Germany you can get up to 45% installation cost help

The surplus will be available soon. If you look at the trajectories of the installed capacity, it's obvious. Germany is in the process to switch over to electricity for heating, too. There are a lot of incentitives to install new heatp

Incorrect. Solar panels in Northern Europe provide plenty of energy. Additionally in the winter we have complementary wind production from our windfarms.

by Brometheus 4y ago
No, it is correct information.

Germany produced 48% of its electricity via renewables this year so far. The surpluss energy will soon be used to electrolyze hydrogen that will be fed into our vast gas infrastructure.

This idea is so so sooo much better

We have minutenreserveleistung (MRL) using wind in Germany, but this is not the best solution :joy:

by Brometheus 4y ago
This is the way.

by Brometheus 4y ago
We will implement storage in hydrogen for the winter. It's already on it's way (again).

by Brometheus 4y ago
We will produce the solar cells ourselves again and we have two of the biggest producers of wind power plants, so there's that. https://www.enercon.de/ https://www.siemens.com/

40% of our electricity comes from renewables already. And it would be much higher, if the Energiewende ("energy turn (to renewables)") hadn't been sabotaged by the same parties that wanted to use coal and gas (namely CDU and

Yeah, until you elect DeSantis or Trump again. Thanks.

by Brometheus 4y ago
Sadly that's probably true. At the same time, the Energiewende (change to renewables) was sabotaged. Wonder why…

For the moment. There's a strong urge in Germany to switch over to heatpumps and more renewables now. The gas is not coming back. The ministry of economy instructed city energy utilities to "stop investing" into their gas inf

Well, where do you think those digial infrasture are hosted?

Using renewables to create hydrogen and use that, this plan has been calculated trough again and again and again by Deutsche Institut für Wirtschaft (German Institute of Economy) and others and deemed very viable. So I take the science over
