The power is out on the country. Its a Black Mountain like, oh this, it was a little lock outs. Are serious. We hope they never happen, but they could my boss, the income, the its a blackout. How say you over not you, are you for a long time, more and more people in germany fee of this, Alexander Holland house and that has no fits. He sells backup generations. Demand has been growing. And not just since the start of the war, new crying we get from life. Its why im going to states in the past 2 years. This has been increasing steadily. But in the past few months, its going up shop late on the growth of more than a 100 percent. The demand is definitely that compared to the previous year, its going up by more than 100 percent. And which the who are the people that are worried about such horace scenarios. So we said thats preparing for a complete collapse. The Electricity Supply vehicle has been signed up into yachts is all into nima. Weve got the dentist, the veterinarian and company. I know the so across section of society, the number of people who are simply worried this suffering now under the Energy Transition. But i want to be equipped in a cool. And then there are also very special custom is i want to make a secret of it. I dont even want to be ready for any eventuality. But thats quite rental. Its really just normal People Like Us and got some of them in the. The calling housing is customers spend about 3000 euros on average for the generation. Thats a lot of money for back up in case of a policy. Yep. And as the less harling housing can barely keep up with the sales guy, similar to how can i help you . What would you like to run for emergency power for the evening when does work and what else is fine . Then joyce refrigerator, thats all central light. So you want an emergency power supply for the house along. Exactly. So for when food in the store, when, where it comes to worst, when the lights go out, i can still he will be sending those 2 items. I got a bit of blackout anxiety, longer manage those locals and thousands of times use id like to be independent. I dont have confidence in the governments Energy Policies anymore. Calling housing has cools like these all the time. Yeah. Is this is vaguely so what else do you watch on netflix . Yes, its really true. People are afraid that the Energy Transition will lead to shortages in power supply. Letter of the policies are leading to major uncertainty info. And given that people want to protect themselves on the edge of henry mosley starting off, obviously yon hagan did is economist activist. The 43 year old i t specialist as even made a jo about if his passion. Hes got his own climate blog. He doesnt see blackouts as a risk in stage. Its all about Climate Change that he said, we want to achieve germany. Time it targets, we really need to move and expand renewables right away and advance all the technologies you need. So everything is electric and we dont use electricity for today, but we still band gas oil and code, but then making the Energy Transition a priority. But despite the new government things and not moving fast enough, here you can big is the its clearly in the right direction. But if i could make a wish, id still say everything twice as possible. Twice as much with twice the motivation of yes. How old shaw says a completely different view points, the professor of Energy Distribution and High Voltage Technology and called post says relying on renewables alone is role. The sun, for example, cant supply electricity without interruption. He says, furnace should supply facial voltage. So p v for sure. Was oh must, if he via 0 it right because its dark during the day in winter its mainly dark. That means p b as in a short output of 0 percent with an a should output means Energy Generation by simple power plants, which is nearly always available. Coal nuclear and gas find power plants above food and hydro electric sources provide a high level of assured output, wind energy, and such as o takes by contrast. Have no assured output. I cant establish a secure supply with that. There are lots of windy days. I can use that, but then there are com, daisy, and the question then is always what do i do . I can build windham p b as long as i want do, but a short output times of 0 percent to one present. As you know, nothing. The scientist says its clear when theres something known as a dual cool, slow so, so no lice or wind, then supplying electricity gets problematic. Its been since these are believe that the flow of the how much to keep this las license when youve got this renown dont go slow to. Theres neither p v nor winds generation thats always going to get. And if you take away all the conventional Power Generation like nuclear lake, 90 hard cold, and then theres nothing left for germany to supply itself with power from domestic sources always supposed to on the protocol, flowed in the times when theres no sun, the wind faces the biggest threat to Power Generation, netflix, not scare tactics, but realities. Between 20152020 alone there was 3 phases in which Renewable Energy supply less than 20 percent of what it was supposed to. And that for more than 200 hours a time. Thats more than 8 days. Claudia came 1st and the Energy Economist at the gym and institute of Economic Research says the threats is red and manageable. The have months. Weve taken a really close look at the scenario. There are 2 weeks in january when that kind of tough with this little solar and wind energy, and youve got to prepare for that problem in energy terminology. We call those like flexibility options. The system has really high fluctuations here, and its not analog, but digital and a very small, some very flexible, and it works the tools we need to know. A digital smash, flexible electric power system. That sounds good, but we have one already. The scripts not it doesnt exist yet. We need to invest and it sets up the system quickly. So well always have supply securities along side. Then well have to get to the point you could say, which is if youve decided to jump out of an airplane, and on the way down, you all start to discuss how youre going to make the power shooting. Youve got the material and ideas and on the weight down you keep telling yourselves up to now it has always been fine and everything is okay. That goes well for a while. The in the control center, the Transmission System operation, im pre own. They try to keep the network stable, that only woods wind Power Generation in consumption always exactly at the same level. Otherwise, in the worst case, a blackout logic. Before the Energy Transition, it was simple. Fossil fuels fired power plants always deliver the exact cause. The amount of Energy Consumed today, Wind Turbines and solar modules provide energy to that makes it more complicated because sometimes theres wind and sunshine. And sometimes there is that nicholas frequency drops different mules like wind in solar, and that you have a lot for network operate and then has to bring conventional power plants online to restore the balance. It is a gale blowing on the coast, then the break frequency control has dangerously in del steel. Theresa would have the wind turbine stopped. Fluctuation of Network Frequency must be minimized. Otherwise, the net was collapse for that in a given the longer needed. What . So you wouldnt be follow the Energy Transition. The situations could be timed back to meaning generation was oriented precisely to consumption of the vehicle. The whole thing has become the final complex involve the times since the Energy Transition. The network situation changes much more frequently. In the meantime, several daily interventions to guarantee Network Security become almost routine. And so the velocity intervention also means firing up conventional power plants. The more or more of these power produces for the shoot out portions supposed to be shut down soon. Ready quite a longer dont call slash and then perhaps lead to a blackout. Says yes, it isnt a complete. Thats a complex question thats not so easy to on. So with just a sentence of college, all bass Transmission System operators isnt a guarantee and ensure security of supplying grants, the task of the ministry of economics within the federal Network Agency, although its not up to the Transmission System operates um, but of course, well, point out developments and undesirable try and become open experience within its way continually speaking with the transmission of system operators. And thats a conservative sector by the transition system operate is job has always been able to back up and to have a safety level. And another off to that, and that in that respect and the mindset of many people in the World Network tends to be very security oriented as either. But the former junior economics minister knows that without conventional power plants, secure Energy Supplies could become scarce. Is reading the thats why why 2030 web building additional natural gas, 5 health plans to guarantee secure supplies even without coal fired plants. And well achieve that because we go to precise audio and talk to the providers. And this with you, how meaning you get fund power plants would have to be built quickly. Now, a number of analyses have shown that it is, in fact, between 23 and 43 gigawatts of outputs. Thats dozens of new gas fired power plants. So at any rate whos going to build them and what kind of gas will be used to operate them . Of the head of the german Central Association of the energy and also industry and form. A green politician says all those problems a solvable escape guns, entrance even just because theyre all very intensive discussions with no way. Im sol, susan European Countries couldnt escape the results with saudi arabia. As all the world is pretty big, when it comes to this, there are many supply opens unit times. We know we need these pallets along some to so were working within an investment frameworks that will enable it to see more of a metric tons of ideas. But nothing really concrete, appropriate urgently needed investment framework. The Energy Transition is, according to the east, the institution between 500000000000 euros and moles and street trinity in your eyes. And that will have an impact on electricity prices. Power will become increasingly expensive. The, even now germany has the highest price for electricity worldwide. While jim, you can see miss pay around 0. 30 per kilowatt hour, electricity is spot cheaper in other countries. The federal orders had the bundles, ratios, hole has quickly said process may not rise. Otherwise, the Energy Transition will post a threat to social stability in germany the left of sluggard. But it is because it says most defects according to law, the supply of electricity must be secure, but also affordable and reasonably priced. The development of costs of that puts us 1st in europe, of course, has impact on private households and small and medium sized companies. Theres a whole huge cost factors that have to be absorbed, talked to. And its important that society isnt of about us because theyre just a huge product. Overwhelmed by high electricity prices. The mid sized Companies Failing on hassle is located nearby piedmont. They made the products needed to the Energy Transition. Special couple last winter bonds, power lines and electric cars. The electricity intensive processing of the metal in the meantime has left the Company Facing huge costs and try their energy costs. And im here, share of energy costs in the manufacturing process is very high, and the higher the energy costs rise, the more critical the share becomes the then thats really worrying us. Thats because in the ends, that means the products we need to achieve, the Energy Transition will no longer be able to be made in europe. And especially in germany, then the Wind Turbines will come from asia as, as in to stabilize spending on energy, many electricity intensive companies. A, working with external energy costs manages like view and for each company, bonds, electricity, and gas on the wholesale market. On behalf of mid sized enterprises, he says hi jim and electricity costs even damaged the climate via of point a who and in a game provides industry better as when we no longer competitive due to high energy prices. Then business shifts to asia in china. That means that, well, the leading products made here with minimal emissions, medium of being manufactured in countries with much higher emissions and much greater environmental damage, one or whoever, the one thats on, but the high cost of the biggest problem. So companies by far, much worse is the power outage is happening more, more frequently has since its because of the Energy Transition, the list is arms and for the mission, thats simple, but internally thats the stuff. My biggest concern is that the stability of the Energy Supply is becoming increasingly worse eyes. There are milli seconds long outages. Theyre not even recorded in figures, but for us it means a 3 day processing stand still and this is brad tag. Or steve, you must, we have to reset all the machines again and painstakingly clean them. And before you know what our costs are in the region of 6 figures, 5 and what so comes exceeding the rise. Officially, germany occupies of 12 position in terms of the reliability of its power supply of the called the process. It doesnt benefit from this because the outages of less than 3 minutes dont show up in the statistics, itll say they gave an Energy Transition is really lacking a stringent scientific plan based on physics and electrical engineering. Its become found too much of a political and ideological playground where things are designed it electrically and ideologically, that as a consequence of the Energy Transition power consumption in germany is going to rise clearly by 2030 electric cars and electricity intensive heat pumps, for example, will contribute to the Economics Ministry is aware of this. Its been vivian since weve efficient on top of all. Hum, this is true. Well have additional power consumption to put the full cost, say around 50. 00 or 60 percent more. Then today, this additional electricity will be generated by Wind Turbines and solar power plants from germany know what were getting everything ready now, so we can get to percent of the countries surface area for wind energy of 5 into off. So additionally, well pull out all the stops with offshore wind in gym and its close to what is for them. And then weve got lots of solar energy to attic either. Finally, this Cooperation Without neighbors voltage electricity, germany needs can be produced in this way. And then go to and call this it from the ones that same principle. There are many great ideas that can all be implemented in terms of your technical feasibility. Ive no reservations, it can be done, but its simply costs. Its an incredible amount of money and takes a long, long time. Its like theres not too much time left because its not just the gym and use electricity consumption. Thats to become green with an if you use all the energy for industry and consume it should be produced in a fully climate need for way in the near future. Heavy industry consume is comic is one of the energy that jim the consumes today in the form of coal, oil, gas, or gasoline, is to soon be replaced by green electricity. Only about 16 percent of whats known as primary Energy Consumption comes from renewable sources. At the moment, nearly 84 percent of chimneys Energy Demand is still consumed in the form of fossil fuels, such as oil comb or gas. My comparison nearly 30000. 00 Wind Turbines in germany, supply just about 4 percent of the energy that germany needs in total. And 1st of all takes only contributors about 1. 5 percent to the Energy Supply in germany. Despite the say bring figures into in certain times that diversity on hagen that has a solution because primary energy use or drop in future p man agi, is that same primary energy is something we waste of on solve in germany, if we look at a power plant the steam coming out at the top is the primary energy within it, which i know combustion engine. Im 75 percent of the heat goes on, use them out, the heat zones. So when we shift will consume fall last primary energy to man. When all energy use to switch to Climate Friendly electricity, every state will become more efficient. He would be assessed and would fix hoffen, be skeptical at the biggest Chemical Complex and the world around 40000. 00 people work in 2000 and buildings in factories. The company produces plastics. Personalizes and the chemical pre cost is for other industries. Its energy use is moment. 3 on san gas power plants from around the clock. Switching the production here to climate and util electricity. Thats barely conceivable. O
