| Functional energy transition vs. German energy transition
|
|
|
Plain and simple: photovoltaic without storage delivers flutter electricity, photovoltaic with electricity storage is a very reliable power supply.
|
| Evolution instead of destruction
|
|
|
I emphasized planning security as early as 1992 in my first book, “Ascent to the Solar Age.” A viable energy transition requires planning security for the economy.
|
| Profitability and actuarial
|
|
|
Insurance costs show how likely a particular loss is and what effort can be made to avoid that loss.
|
| Reason and hydrogen
|
|
|
Investor wants to produce hydrogen in southern Italy with solar power, but has no idea how to transport the hydrogen to Germany.
|
| Like sand in the desert - like salt in the sea
|
|
|
The doomsday sect "Limits to Growth" constantly want to make us believe in a hopeless situation by denying renewable energy and recycling.
|
| Planetary restoration back to 350 ppm CO2
|
|
|
Without a credible CO2 reduction plan, they are climate change deniers, either ignorant or wanting to abuse climate change for their own political agenda.
|
| Improvement of the standard of living
|
|
|
Now let's compare the standard of living of a king 1000 years ago with that of a somewhat poorer family today. Travel, housing, food, entertainment, health.
|
| Instead of 400,000 new apartments per year better houses
|
|
|
The historical data, large houses because of less heat demand/m², large houses require less building material/m² are inaccurate today.
|
| Do you want total ignorance?
|
|
|
With Galileo Galilei, total ignorance concerned only things that were meaningless to the common citizen. The Inquisition refused to look through a telescope.
|
| My 91 minutes in mastodon hell
|
| 
|
|
|
The result of the Mastodon experiment raises an old question again: How long would great political figures like Willy Brandt and Helmut Schmitd have survived in today's SPD?
|
| Cleaning up the PR department
|
|
|
3 years ago, I was still dreaming of inviting Greta Thurnberg as a star guest to the opening ceremony. But Greta's PR value has since fallen far into the negative.
|
| NGO does not want a higher standard of living
|
|
|
If I understand it correctly, people are to be kept there as in a large open-air zoo. Example of "saving, restricting, doing without".
|
| Off-Grid Fair Augsburg
|
|
|
The new vision for somewhere in the middle of nowhere: Every few weeks, a Tesla Semi semi-truck comes by with a tanker trailer, gets charged up, and picks up the methanol it produces.
|
| The Emperor's New Clothes
|
|
|
The effects of the cancel culture were visible at this press conference: no critical questions, everything that is said, simply written off nicely.
