Kolja Barghoorn ironically referred to the energy transition as a "masterpiece" and stated that instead of the promised cheap electricity, electricity prices are 16.4 percent higher than in 2021. He also pointed to billions in costs for grid bottlenecks and reserve power plants, battery storage that only lasts two hours at full capacity, and hydrogen, which has been considered a future technology for years. Barghoorn also criticized a new market created by the state, in which power plant operators would be paid for 15 years to provide electricity in case of outages from wind and solar power. He cited Blackout News as the source for the mentioned data. #Energiewende #Strompreise #Energiepolitik (translated)
Lower Austria is increasingly becoming a state for solar energy in addition to wind energy; this hybrid park is a model for other projects in the region. This way, we can further strengthen the security of supply in our country with domestic electricity. Support also comes from the state; Andreas Minnich, a member of the National Council representing Governor Mikl-Leitner, emphasizes: “Lower Austria is increasingly becoming a state for solar energy in addition to wind energy; this hybrid park is a model for other projects in the region. This way, we can further strengthen the security of supply in our country with domestic electricity.” #Solarpark #ErneuerbareEnergien #Niederösterreich (translated)

SAKI 🗯 compared the energy mix in Germany and Norway: Germany sources about 52 percent of its energy from renewable sources, while Norway sources about 99 percent. The author stated an average price of 41 cents per kilowatt-hour for Germany and 16 cents for Norway. He wrote that the Union wants to increasingly rely on fossil fuels again, which in his view would further increase prices. #ErneuerbareEnergien #Strompreis #Klimaschutz (translated)

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that the eco-friendly energy provider Grüüün will cease supply to around 200,000 private customers nationwide by October 31, 2026. The company only started in 2024 and had advertised price guarantees of up to ten years. Affected customers will need to find a new provider. Grüüün cited planned changes to the Renewable Energy Sources Act and new regulations for power grid expansion as reasons. The company fears that this will lead to fewer wind power and solar installations in the future, making it impossible to maintain long-term price guarantees. Negotiations with the federal government have been unsuccessful, Boeminghaus wrote, referring to a BILD report from October 10, 2026. He explained that this case illustrates how political and regulatory uncertainty can jeopardize long-term business models in the energy sector. https://t.co/NINMEcNkUS #Energiewende #Strompreise #Deutschland (translated)
