what sparked your 'lightbulb moment' about sustainability? #GreenerTogether #LinkedInNewsEurope It was not "sustainability" but "sustainability at a timely scale" that was a trigger for me. Timelines for when CO2 can be saved now already (many programs can do it 5-10-15 years down the road - while the CO2 we can reduce now already, we don't need to clean up later). The scale factor forces considerations of adoption. Adoption increases if there pure upsides. So if sustainability products / services will have immediate cost & health benefits, companies get sustainability "for free". This drives adoption and adoptions drives scale and scale is essential for meaningful sustainability. #EnOcean

Last week, the German Bundestag resumed its work after the summer break - traditionally, the first debate on next year's budget was due. The discussions on the budget have accompanied us throughout the summer. At the same time, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) has provided important groundwork for the ongoing debate with its paper (https://lnkd.in/eVKKxciM) on design options for the future electricity market design ⚡. At GE Vernova, we welcome the paper of the BMWK as it enables a structured discussion on the design elements of the #electricitymarketdesign for #climateneutrality. In our view, it is important: ➡  that the new market design incentivises the provision of the dispatchable capacity and flexibility needed in a power system based primarily on wind and solar energy, ➡ that regional scarcities of power generation and transmission capacity will be made transparent through locational signals to guide investment, and ➡ that investors get long-term clarity on the investment framework for the energy transition, which, in addition to the points mentioned above, also includes network charges, the promotion of renewable energies and the configuration of electricity price zones. For the new market design to be operational in 2028, as planned by the government, we believe it is advisable to take a pragmatic approach and reduce complexity wherever possible. When designing the planned capacity mechanism, the German government should, where possible, also build on the experience of its European neighbours. This will help to avoid delays during the EU state aid approval process.  #FutureofEnergy #GEVernova #TheEnergyToChangeTheWorld GE Vernova #ConsultingServices

Why are there so few women in leadership positions, and what can we do to change this? 🤔 In this podcast, we explore the challenges, discuss root causes, and share some first actionable solutions to drive diversity and inclusion. We’d love to hear your thoughts: What strategies do you think could make the biggest impact? 💡 Thank you to Mouser Electronics and Stuart Cording for having me, and special thanks to Andrea Krause for being a wonderful partner in this. PS: Please cut me some slack—this was my very first time participating in a podcast! 🎙️😊 Always room to grow from here. 🚀 #womeninleadership #WEUnited #electronics #supplyframe

Hello leaders in sustainability, I am very happy to share that I am now also a member of the board of the German Association of carbon dioxide removal, the Deutscher Verband für negative Emissionen e.V. (DVNE). Our organisation is bringing together the #CDR industry, policymakers, buyers, and investors to help orchestrate the development of a common strategy. Germany is poised to lead with its technological expertise and progressive climate policies. However, bold and decisive measures need to be collectively implemented by all the stakeholders to unlock the full potential. Carbon dioxide removal is essential for meeting global climate goals - given the divergence between emission reduction targets and our current policies and actual progress. All IPCC pathways compatible with 1.5 °C or 2 °C include CDR to achieve a net zero emissions world. There is a broad range of CDR methods which can be classified into three categories: nature-based removal (e.g., assisted natural regeneration #ANR), enhanced natural processes (e.g., enhanced rock weathering or #biochar carbon removal), and technology-based removal (e.g., #bioenergy with carbon capture and storage). Each method varies in technology intensity, permanence, scalability, ease of monitoring, and cost. If you want to find out how you can contribute and which methods fit best to your needs, reach out to me or to my colleagues Stefan Schlosser, managing director of DVNE, or Sebastian Manhart, our chair. #planetarybusiness #carbonremoval #climatesolutions #carboncapture #biochar #ccus #climatechange #carbondioxideremoval #sustainability #nbs #directaircapture Torsten Becker Alexander Zeihe 🇮🇱🎗️🇺🇦 Carolin Güthenke Nicole Herold Stefan Schlosser Magnus Drewelies Dr. Carla Woydt Philipp Rupp Lisa Mangertseder Stephanie Bischof Oscar Schily Sebastian Hanss-Mirodone Dr. Patrick Herhold NatureRe Capital AG Carbonfuture carbonauten polymers

AI first of all needs Datacentre infrastructure: - help German industry evolve to the next level - massive DC investments can contribute to Germanys energy transition - thinking DCs as part of industrial parks leads to significant benefits Just look at our projects like FRANKFURT WESTSIDE where a Datacenter marks as enabler for a whole site development. Let us take a broader view about how Datacentres drive economic and ecologic development - and then cut the constraints that holds our industry back.

🎙️Exciting News! I recently had the pleasure of joining the podcast "Bright Sights – Energiewende gemeinsam", where I discussed the dynamics in energy sales with the brilliant hosts Anna Gruner and Matthias Mett. Listen to this new episode now: https://lnkd.in/eunEgdQx We dove into some crucial topics that are shaping the industry: 🔍 What strategies can energy providers adopt to stand out in an increasingly competitive landscape? 🔍 Why are dynamic tariffs key to engaging consumers with next-generation energy products, and how does transparent pricing fit into the picture? 🔍 How is epilot empowering utilities to cultivate lasting relationships with their customers? It was an insightful conversation packed with actionable ideas for utility companies navigating the energy transition. Thank you very much for having me, Anna and Metti! So, tune in! #EnergyTransition #DynamischeTarife #Stadtwerke #utilities #epilot

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

Yesterday, NetzeBW announced the first-ever dynamic grid fees in Germany—a game changer for both consumers and the energy sector. Until now, electricity prices could fluctuate throughout the day, but now grid fees will too. This means that consumers can save significantly by adjusting their energy use to times when renewables are abundant. For example, you could pay a third of the usual grid charges for charging your EV or running your heat pump if you do it during the day when solar energy is plentiful. 🌞⚡ Given that grid fees often make up more than 50% of household electricity costs in competitive tariffs, this is a huge opportunity to save money and optimize energy use. It also paves the way for more widespread dynamic tariffs, encouraging smarter consumption and advancing the transition to a greener grid. #EnergyTransition #SmartGrid #RenewableEnergy #Electricity
