#Germany | Planification milestone 🚨 🔗 The proposal for the core #hydrogen pipeline has been approved by the Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur). The proposal had been done by the TSOs' association FNB Gas e.V. (Fernleitungsnetzbetreiber) on June 2023. 🏭 So it is decided, the hydrogen network will span 9,040 kilometers, with 60% of existing gas pipelines being converted for hydrogen use and 40% newly built. The network will be developed gradually until 2032, with an investment of €18.9 billion. It will support the country’s hydrogen infrastructure, linking regional hydrogen clusters and connecting with neighboring countries. This approval marks a key step toward establishing a nationwide hydrogen network in Germany. 🌎 This arouses the attention not only of the local German industry, eager for a low-cost, steady green hydrogen supply, but also of almost the whole world of renewable-resource-rich countries keen to supply them with their competitive hydrogen.

#Cyberschutz von #KRITIS ist in den #USA politisch zurzeit ein ganz heißes Eisen - und es sind immer wieder die ähnlichen grundlegenden #Probleme, die auch hierzulande gerade bei kleineren #Versorgungsbetreibern immer wieder Kopfzerbrechen bereiten: "EPA urges water utilities to protect nation's drinking water amid heightened cyberattacks" "A majority of water systems — over 70% — inspected by the EPA since last September violated standards in the Safe Drinking Water Act, according to the alert." "The agency found that some water systems failed to change default passwords and cut off access to former employees in addition to only using single logins for all staff that can be compromised, the alert said. Although many of the EPA's requirements to protect water systems are "basic cyber hygiene practices," the agency said potential cyberattacks can cause significant impacts on both water utilities and consumers." https://lnkd.in/euhH48ZK

"Germany has reached its expansion targets for #solarenergy 7️⃣ whole months earlier than originally planned. 🙌 ➡️A total of 88 GWp were installed by mid-May 2024. According to the expansion path of the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG), this corresponds to the target value for 2024." This translates into a greater need for #gridexpansion and #flexibility, e.g. #batteries #BESS #solarenergie

Last night, I witnessed the future benchmark in travel. Picture this: charging your EV up to 400 km range in just about 15 minutes—quicker than your coffee break! EnBW's NextLevel Charging Park in Chemnitz isn't just about rapid charging. It combines sustainability with convenience, boasting a CO2-saving timber roof and high-efficiency solar panels. While the kids enjoy the eco-friendly playground, adults can relax at the cafe. And with EnBW now offering more than 4.500 hypercharging spots in Germany and more than 600k charging spots in Europe (via the EnBW Mobility+ App), road trips with the family are going to be a lot more enjoyable! Charging stations like this are prepared to deliver power at groundbreaking speeds. Although compatibility with Superchargers is still a hurdle for some electric vehicles, we've reached a stage where the infrastructure itself is ready and waiting; it's the vehicles themselves that need to catch up. But it's good to see that many manufacturers are making concerted efforts to bridge the gap between vehicle capability and charging infrastructure potential ( Some EV's now on the horizon are even said to have an 80-kilowatt-hour battery and a 600 km range that could theoretically charge in about 8 minutes!) With the EU's ambitious targets for EV infrastructure, mandating fast-charging stations every 60 kilometres on major highways by 2025 and aiming for 3 million public charging points by 2030, the stage is set for a significant transformation in how we approach electric mobility. How does the EV charging infrastructure influence your choice of vehicles? EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG #Sustainability #EMobility #Innovation #EnBW

When such numbers are shown one gets worried it won’t be on time. Imagine 35,000 chargers at 1 MW….. that’s potential 35 GW peak power demand…. That’s easily 40 power plants. It’s clear that just going electric is not the solution. Especially for trucking (and shipping and air transport) we need sustainable fuels. #sustainablefuels #energytransition

You cannot demand excellence from people and not offer the same in return. In Germany, according to the Umweltbundesamt - German Environment Agency (German Environment Agency), approximately 387,700 people were employed in the renewable energy sector, based on the latest survey in 2022. The number of jobs in renewable energy in Germany is expected to continue increasing. According to a forecast by the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI , up to 500,000 jobs could be created in this sector by 2030, particularly due to the ongoing rapid expansion of wind and solar energy, as well as the modernisation of the energy system. We are, therefore, in a market with significant potential and excellent career prospects. At the same time, these figures highlight that developers like VSB Group must not only attract and recruit more motivated professionals but also retain them for the long term. For me, this is one of the central strengths that we build on over the coming years. Our employees at the VSB Group are at the heart of every wind and solar park we develop, and I am proud of the workplaces we have created, where innovation meets balance and we create an environment for our teams to be the best they can be. I love to inspire and motivate my teams, and above all, leading with strong human values is close to my heart. I see my role as identifying and nurturing individual potential, together with my entire leadership. This approach has enabled us to create a work environment at VSB where people feel comfortable and commit themselves daily to our shared vision: 100% renewable energy for Europe. We are on the right track! This is evidenced by the fact that we recently received the kununu Top Company Award once again. I am proud of the positive feedback from our employees, which reflects our ongoing commitment to creating a great workplace. Would you like to be part of this exciting journey?

In the march towards #EnergyTransition, the role of strategic asset management and portfolio management cannot be overstated. As we navigate the complexities of implementation and financing, it's clear that public acceptance hinges on cost-effective solutions. The transformation and expansion of the electric grid carry significant costs, yet they are pivotal for integrating renewable energy sources like #Wind and solar. At 50Hertz Transmission GmbH, they're committed to strategic planning and management of their assets to support one of the world's most reliable electricity networks. Their approach includes not only expanding their electricity highways but also integrating interconnectors, leveraging energy storage, and utilizing flexible loads such as power-to-heat plants. The gap between power generation and consumption locations is widening, and that calls for a strategic outlook in managing their energy portfolio. It's with this vision I look forward to hear industry leaders like Stefan Kapferer Manon van Beek, Bruno Meyer Priyantha Wijayatunga Wijayatunga, and Sonya Twohig to further this vital dialogue. Let's harness the power of strategic asset management to make energy systems more resilient, efficient, and accepted by those we serve.

Back to RWTH Aachen University… … always a pleasure meeting again my former colleagues and students. Talking about the hydrogen economy, on projects, technology, challenges and opportunities. And all, let’s remember the painful System Integration for renewables… who is still aware on fault ride through requirements, reactive power injection, voltage stabilization measures etc for wind turbines and parks? On testing and certification? All of that we managed already once… and we will also manage for electrolyzers… but we need to be pragmatic, focused and collaborative. By all parties involved! And we need to think in system solutions rather than on component level only. I am looking forward to making this happen… technology, testing and verification is now what we need.

Attention, this is the wrong way ⚠️⚠️⚠️ The painful truth 👀 ⬇️⬇️⬇️ I see dubious solar offers in my Facebook feed every day. As a company that has been active in the solar industry for over 20 years and witnessed the first boom, we recognize the parallels to earlier developments. Advertising prices so boldly on the Internet is the wrong approach. Every system is individual, every customer is individual. These fixed price points are often unrealistic and are frequently based on bait offers from suppliers who have exploited the high demand in recent years. Of course we are pleased that solar energy has become so cheap. But I would like to issue an urgent warning at this point: don't fall for these offers. It is highly dubious to advertise such prices on Facebook without giving precise details. Instead, look for experienced solar companies that have been operating successfully on the market for years and can provide numerous references. I am convinced that many of the poorly positioned companies will go bankrupt in the coming months. Solar installation is a trade, and unfortunately many companies are only out to make a quick profit. These dubious dumping prices often only serve to generate the last cash flows. Hence my appeal: Be careful when choosing your provider. Companies that mainly advertise with prices often have no other unique selling points. We don't want to criticize any specific company, but please, be vigilant - this is not the way to go. #bauersolar #reliablelikethesun #innovation #pv #photovoltaik #photovoltaics #solar #solarsupplier #glasglas #glassglass #bifacial #solarpanels #renewableenergy #renewables #energiewende #solarenergie #solarenergy #false #bereal #partner #truth #wrongway #trust #quality

Peter Kilby brought the German OP to my attention with a comment that I’ve been saying something similar in “Australian”! Indeed I have … here’s the simply “Google Translate” version … /—-/ Many people buy a home storage system to advance the energy transition. KfW is promoting this with taxpayers' money. Unfortunately, that's pretty nonsense. The way we use home storage systems today, they hardly do anything for system. Why this is the case and how it can be 👇 changed Today, batteries are used in the electricity system as large-scale storage (containers) and home storage systems (aka solar batteries). Both are lithium-ion batteries. We are connecting home storage systems in Germany at quite a speed, and there are currently more than 7 GW connected to the grid. Many celebrate this as a success of the energy transition. Not me. Storage systems pay off financially because they allow you to consume more self-generated electricity. This is attractive because it saves grid fees, taxes and levies. But: of course, that doesn't do anything for society. Self-consumption is basically a tax-saving model. Unfortunately, storage systems are then of no use for the network or system. They simply charge fully as soon as the sun rises. And at some point they are full. Then the solar system feeds into the grid. The stupid thing is: this is often around lunchtime, when the market and grid are overflowing with electricity anyway. From the point of view of the electricity system, this is even worse than no battery at all. A sensibly operated storage system behaves quite differently. It charges at night (even without sun), discharges in the morning (even if I'm still sleeping) and only charges in the afternoon (at the solar peak). In the evening, the battery discharges (even if I don't use any electricity myself). The optimization is oriented towards the network and the market. Not because of my own behavior. We recently modeled this in detail as part of a study, with a Python model and real data. The result: of the 340 euros a year that the storage system brings me, only 8% are system benefits. The rest is redistribution at the expense of the neighbors. By the way, you can do all this better. Home storage systems are great systems. Or would be. If they were exposed to the right incentives. This requires two things: 1) Dynamic electricity tariffs 2) Time-varying network charges Of course, storage systems can't do anything about all this. Batteries are a great technology, even in the power grid. But they need meaningful incentives. The tragic thing is that all this has been clear to everyone in science for many years. And yet nothing happens. The study mentioned: https://lnkd.in/ehVBbmeR
