Chemist Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Renewable generation, which along with wind includes solar, hydro, biomass, waste and geothermal energy, contributed 139 billion kWh to the total, up 13.5% from a year earlier. Germany last year reduced carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 39% compared with 1990 but aims to reach a 65% reduction by 2030, for which it needs to roll out more zero-carbon renewables.

Arthoe Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Which is still way too little. Conservative & neo-liberal politicians f*cked us over with their fetish for coal, gas, nuclear & oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The7thStranger Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Sounds great, but we could be doing so much better. We have the funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarysunflower Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Outstanding. Hopefully increasing more year-on-year. USA, Russia & China can learn a thing or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevyy Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Imagine an economy as big as Germany one day (in the nearer future) being completely independent from energy imports. The country will generate a positive trade balance of more than $900 billion. (it peaked at $220 billion a few years ago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
