What will happen to the subsidisation of renewables? How should back-up capacities of power plants be financed in future? According to which rules should the grid fees be charged? At the beginning of August, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWK) presented a paper on the electricity market design of the future on […]

GES sees the draft carbon management strategy by Economics Minister Robert Habeck as an overdue step. The world is now also moving towards the GES reference solution in Germany: the “2-pillar electricity system” and “Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage” building blocks are being given the space they need. If 80 per cent of global primary […]

In the European Union, heavy-duty traffic is responsible for about one third of road transport emissions and thus for six percent of CO2 emissions. A crucial question is how climate-neutral trucks can be powered in the future. An excerpt from the study: “In the near future, battery electrics and the provision of electricity via overhead […]

Nature-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 […]

Nitrogen 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.

Anyone who believes that batteries will make long-term storage of electricity in the grid possible is mistaken. A solution for bridging dark lulls when the sun is not shining, and the wind is not blowing is not in sight with this technology. But batteries can certainly contribute to stabilising an electricity grid with a high […]
