Where are the major challenges in solving global energy and climate issues? GES assumes that the rich countries will achieve their goal of climate neutrality for the year 2050 on their own, if only because of their economic and technical potential. The same applies to countries like China and Russia, which have also set themselves […]
MehrAt this point, some news of the last few weeks will be addressed which, from GES’ point of view, are reason for hope because they contain building blocks of a possible global solution and / or could help to develop a realistic view of the challenges ahead of us. In the revised German hydrogen strategy, […]
MehrAn excerpt: “The German energy transition represents a special path in international comparison, because no other country is simultaneously phasing out fossil energies and nuclear power. This special path causes immense costs, which are primarily borne by the citizens. At the same time, it only makes a small contribution to achieving the global climate protection […]
MehrNature-based solutions for binding CO2 play a decisive role in climate protection. The aim is to preserve, relieve and expand the absorption capacity of the biosphere. In addition to their positive impact on the climate, nature-based solutions have many positive effects in terms of the 2030 Agenda, with the potential to create several trillion US […]
MehrThe goal of the GES Reference Solution is to chart a path to a world that enables all ten billion people to live in freedom with adequate prosperity in social balance, an intact environment and a stable climate system in the period 2050 to 2070. The guiding idea is energy prosperity for all through innovation […]

MehrAt this point, some news of the last few weeks will be addressed which, from GES’ point of view, are reason for hope because they contain building blocks of a possible global solution and / or could help to develop a realistic view of the challenges ahead of us. Coal and gas-fired power plants in […]
MehrNitrogen oxides, here mainly nitrous oxide, are the third most important long-lived climate gas after CO2 and methane. The anthropogenic share of total global nitrogen oxide emissions is over 40 per cent. The main source is agriculture. Limiting it is possible, several European countries are already doing it. A background paper by Hans-Jürgen Wernicke.
MehrThe German lime industry emits 6 million tonnes of CO2 per year . Two thirds of this cannot be avoided because they are produced when the lime is burnt. Another third comes from the fuels used in the processes. In order to bring the emissions of the lime industry (and those of the cement industry […]
MehrAt an event on 9 May 2023, Global Energy Solutions thanked its industry partners for their content-related and financial support. Present in Ulm were: Bosch, Drees & Sommer, ebm Papst, GdW, Heraeus, Kühne + Nagel, Obrist, Progroup, Schwenk Zement and Vinci. At the meeting, the GES results developed over the past two years were presented. […]
