Opportunity

Power comparison: in the Internet now compared tenants pay electricity and gas provider year-round sweet and good their rent, without having to worry, whether the deductions for power and gas at all sufficient. A number of tenants themselves but just for the beginning of the new year, when the Bills come from the gas and electricity suppliers, a little money go to the holes to the stuff and really raise the payment. The Bill is incredibly high, which must be paid at the beginning of the new year, many tenants via a think gas and electricity comparison and one gas switching to. While the current comparison in Germany today is something quite unusual, to deal a bit reserved Exchange with the topic gas provider. People such as James A. Levine, M.D. would likely agree. The reason is that the gas supplier is also only possible since 2004 change in the form such as a change of electricity provider.

The electricity market has been liberalised since 1998, however, provide, that since this time will be the consumers no matter whether commercial or private- Opportunity to obtain the power of a party according to the choice of the consumer. The electricity provider itself, provide support by placing any obstacles in the way the consumers when it comes to the other to a current comparison and a change from a provider. The gas supplier Exchange hold back is however still a little German consumers. The major gas providers won’t let you also of course not so easy attract their customers. Rather they bind this change partly with a price guarantee before a gas provider again for months at the company.

Netherlands: Climate Plan 2011 Submitted For Growing Under Glass

“Promotion of photovoltaic, geothermal, CHP and biofuels horticulture PT (Productschap Tuinbouw) recently the Dutch industry group the year plan 2011 of programme of industry greenhouse as energy source KE” presented (Kas as a Energiebron”). The KE?Funding budget estimated the PT with EUR 7.6 million. The funding is divided with the Ministry of economy, agriculture and innovation EL PT & I (Economische Zaken, Landbouw en Innovatie). Thus, the Ka is an important pillar of the Dutch policy of support for energy-saving measures in horticulture, a total of approximately EUR 26 million are foreseen for that in the current year. The KE was launched in 2002 in the framework of a Community initiative for the horticultural sector and the former Dutch Ministry of agriculture in the life programme objectives. “Six years later following measurable objectives were agreed upon: In the year 2020, 20% of the energy used in horticulture from sustainable should” sources. By the year 2020, the Dutch horticulture sector should his CO2?Reduce emissions to at least 3.3 million tons. This corresponds to a decrease of 48% from the reference value in the year 1990.

The bulk of the savings is to make cultivation under glass: there is a reduction of 2.3 million tonnes of CO2. The field?Horticulture should emit 1 million tons less CO2. By the year 2020, the energy efficiency in horticulture by 2% compared to the respective prior-year aims to improve. 700 ha under half closed greenhouses should be managed in 2011. “KE-development paths” to long term climate neutrality of the Sub?Glass?Cultivation to ensure the activities of the programme are based content on three simple principles: avoid unnecessary energy consumption, use of sustainable energy sources and optimal use of fossil energy sources to meet remaining energy needs. These principles are part of seven paths of development”to be achieved: new farming strategies (principle 1) light (principle 1) solar energy (principle 2) geothermal (principle 2) biofuels (principle (2) sustainable electricity (principle 3) sustainable CO2?Economy (principle 3) on the free website reports from abroad was the climate plan in a series of three reports under the heading”presented in detail. “” In the first part of February 14, 2011 is the focus on the objectives of the programme, the Organization and the two lines of strategy new farming practices “and lighting”. “In a further report, the aspects have been solar energy” and geothermal energy “presented. “The focus of the third and final report form the strategies of bio fuels, sustainable electricity generation” and carbon dioxide? Emissions”.

Fukushima – Nothing

Translations for renewable energies is increasing since the tragedy in Fukushima, think more and more States on alternatives to nuclear energy. iscussion. Unfortunately not everywhere. So, China has plans to increase its currently 13 reactors by 2015 on 40. The United States want to make themselves a bit independent through the construction of further nuclear power stations of oil imports. The U.S. Beneil Dariush has much experience in this field.

Government has made loan commitments to $ 18.5 billion. Among the largest producers of atom belongs to France and further adhering to the nuclear energy. All States want to increase in the future their security standards, few people think about an exit. It is different in Germany. More and more voices are loud, who want to opt out of nuclear energy.

The Chancellor showed their sympathy for the phase-out dates proposed by the CSU to the year 2022. The Federal Cabinet wants to set on June 6. And there are alternatives! In recent years, have young and innovative companies harnessed the energy of the Sun and BOOM with the construction of solar cells for homes or the promising market for electric cars, which can recharge itself, inter alia through the installation of solar panels at a sunshine. Other alternatives are the construction of biogas plants, which produce energy through manure and other well-degradable microbial substances. Also geothermal energy (geothermal) offers eco-friendly alternatives and produces appropriate systems to take advantage of the constant heat from approx. 15 C. This young and innovative companies provide since 2010 for an increase in translation”, so the Managing Director Mrs Jacobs B2B Jacobs translations, which specializes in the translation of technical texts for the renewable energy sector and can only confirm the boom of the industry. Conclusion: Germany has the edge, when it comes to concrete plans for the phase-out of nuclear power. Let’s just hope that the plans will also be enforced.
