Interessanter Artikel zum Umgang mit #Fehlerkultur im #Unternehmen am Beispiel von #Boeing (lässt sich aber sicherlich auch auf #Crowdstrike beziehen): Weshalb kleine Fehler oft ein Anzeichen für größere Probleme sein können: "The extreme reliability that we expect of jetliners poses meaningfully different challenges than the "normal" reliability we expect of almost any other system. In essence, this is because the challenge of designing a complex system that doesn't fail very often lies in knowing the intricacies of that system and its operation." "But the depth of knowledge needed to lower a system's failure-rate, and the difficultly of achieving that knowledge, don't scale in a linear way. Like climbing a high mountain without oxygen, each step on becomes progressively more difficult. So, doubling a system's reliability takes more than twice the effort, and so on." "Now consider what happens as the reliability required of the system rises from 99.99% to 99.999% . To achieve this new benchmark engineers need to account for eventualities that might occur, not every 10,000 hours, but every 100,000 hours." https://lnkd.in/ebWcXPf8

Ukraine aims to continue its energy sector reforms despite the ongoing war, relying on the European power grid and neighboring countries for support. The Ukraine Recovery Conference 2024 emphasized the importance of rebuilding the damaged energy infrastructure, requiring international cooperation and investment. A comprehensive strategy is needed to stabilize the energy supply, especially before winter, including developing renewable energy sources. The EU and member states have pledged financial support, but more funds are needed to cover the estimated €450 billion in damages, with private investments also crucial. These efforts reflect Ukraine's commitment to reform and global support for a resilient energy sector. KPMG Deutschland #investinukraine

🌱 KfW IPEX-Bank: Committed to Financing Energy Transition Projects 🌍 Today, the German TÜV-Verband presented a study on the state of the energy transition in #Germany, based on a survey of 500 German companies. It sheds light on how companies are driving forward their transformation and to what extent they are prepared to contribute to combatting the climate crisis. Significant key points on that matter are that 85% of the companies surveyed support the energy transition, however, 69% are expecting bottlenecks in supplies due to the energy transition. For us at KfW IPEX-Bank it is our core business to support the shift to sustainable energy, helping businesses to achieve their sustainability goals while strengthening their position on competitive markets. We are looking back on financings for a number of different energy transition projects for companies, such as own sustainable energy sources for factories and chemical parks, retrofits for maritime vessels or e-buses to replace diesel-powered ones. You are looking for a financing partner who has been dealing with energy efficiency and renewable energies for decades and who provides you with support in all aspects of sustainability? With KfW IPEX-Bank you have the perfect match. Whether you're wanting to increase the sustainability performance of your company or contribute to the energy transformation, we support you with the appropriate sustainable financing solution.

Etwas zum Nachdenken im Vorfeld von Block 7 des CAS Klimastrategien 2024, in dem es um #Transformation und #Kommunikation geht: Welche Sprache benutzen wir, welche Regeln stellen wir auf (und Regeln sind ausser wichtig auch immer Schranken für diejenigen, die aus anderen Kontexten kommen), was bedeutet dies für die Unterstützung, die wir brauchen, um unsere Bemühungen um #Klimaschutz und #Klimaanpassung wirksam werden zu lassen? Amy Westervelt nimmt dies auf Drilled News in den Fokus: https://lnkd.in/eJXAWYu6 Warum es ausserdem wichtig ist, sich über Botschaften und ihre Formulierung Gedanken zu machen: "if climate advocates ever get their talking points together on air pollution the fossil fuel industry is done for. Why? Because it's easier to get people to understand that they're being poisoned in the here and now than it is to explain to them that the world is slowly becoming less habitable and that we need to take bold action now to avert that crisis. And because the biggest contributor to deadly air pollution happens to be the biggest driver of climate change: fossil fuel combustion (plus burning wood).   As far as pointing out that oil companies are the ones responsible for high costs at home and at the pump? That message is absolutely necessary because the American Petroleum Institute has been making the rounds of every cable news show for the past four years saying climate policy is driving up gas prices (not true, but most TV news anchors don't know enough about how gas prices work to push back; it helps to have a presidential candidate explaining it over and over again). The FTC just accused the second fossil fuel CEO, John Hess, CEO of Hess Corporation, of conspiring with OPEC to keep prices high. Any politician that wants to see an energy transition in their lifetime should be shouting about that from the rooftops."

Bidirectional charging is a key factor for the success of renewable energies. An important component of this is the ISO15118-20 standard, which specifies a compressed data exchange format known as EXI. Years ago, chargebyte GmbH started developing a software library for the simple and efficient use and generation of EXI encoders and decoders, called cbexigen. We have also created a "ready to use" library for C and released it under the Apache 2.0 license as part of the EVerest Project. Additionally, we have published the generator under the same Apache 2.0 license. Recently, the transition from openV2G to libcbV2G within the EVerest Project occurred. This transition, along with other contributions from chargebyte GmbH and other companies, will help to roll out bidirectional charging quickly and efficiently, eliminating the need for developers to write complex EXI codecs from scratch each time, which is a highly time-consuming and labor-intensive process.

🌍 Exciting News from the recent #EMS & #PCB Forum in Ulm, Germany! 🌍Panel discussion (DE): „Low-Cost Standorte für EMS Europa, brauchen wir das?“ (EN: "Low-cost locations for EMS Europe, do we need that?") On June 7th, Franz-Anton Plitt Anton Plitt had the honor of representing the Electronics Industry from the Republic of Moldova at the EMS & PCB Forum, on behalf of the Moldova Electronics Association ACEM and Moldovan-German Business Association (MDW). The EMS & PCB Forum was joined by circa 130 CEOs. Franz-Anton took the stage in the panel discussion "Low-cost locations for EMS Europe, do we need that?", addressing which country offers the best conditions for reshoring EMS and PCB production back to Europe. His insightful speech sparked interest from several CEOs, leading to potential business scoping missions to the Republic of Moldova later this fall. One of the key takeaways was the revelation that many EMS companies have been miscalculating the cost of purchasing electronic components like PCBs. As highlighted by several speakers, factors like challenging communication and quality issues with distant suppliers, particularly in Asia, are now being recognized as significant costs. This shift in perspective is crucial as companies reevaluate their supply chains. The subsequent data presentations confirmed that the Republic of Moldova stands out as the optimal choice and one of the best cost locations for nearshoring within Europe. We are eager to welcome interested industry business leaders to explore the opportunities in the Republic of Moldova!
