Why do we need so much electricity?An extreme danger: the illusory world of jubilant reports about renewable energy and that we've almost made it after all, it's all just a matter of a few years.On Wednesday I was in Weiz to give a presentation on the GEMINI project from its origins to the distant future. That was in the presentation: Santner Robert presented the project to the energy spokesman of Greenpeace Austria: “Why do we need so much electricity?” That was in 1994, 30 years ago, and that was just the energy spokesman of an organization against everything. Today, at least mayors and architects should be much better informed about electricity requirements, shouldn't they? On Thursday I was at the Eurosolar Stammtisch about energy-optimized settlement areas. Watch the video on YouTube Continue on Friday to the join-in conference of change initiatives in Obergrafendorf, a special recommendation from Franz Nahrada. Program item at 18:00: “What changes are possible in a municipality” with Mayor Rainer Handlfinger of Obergrafendorf. The mayor talks about a study on how much purchasing power flows from Obergrafendorf to the oil-exporting countries, about the enormous buildings in Saudi Arabia, the headquarters of Gazprom, all financed by oil and gas consumers. Great, the man gets it, so I talk to him after his presentation. “Why should a house produce so much electricity?” So I explain to him the part of my presentation from Wednesday at Eurosolar, where the Salzach Urstein power plant supplies just 90 jobs in the energy-intensive industry. Obergrafendorf has 25 local councillors, 17 of whom are from the SPÖ - Socialist Party of Austria, which indicates a high proportion of workers. So he should know what industry needs in terms of energy. By midday on Saturday, it is clear that the Transition movement is completely ignoring the energy transition and climate change. So at the workshops I offer "Planet clean-up back to 350 ppm CO2". An architect says "Why so much electricity?". So I explain to him the part of my presentation from Wednesday at Eurosolar, where the Salzach Urstein power plant provides just 90 jobs in the energy-intensive industry. At least I try, she says indignantly "We don't need concrete, it's bad for the environment". Okay, I explain to the architect that asphalt is only a by-product of the oil industry and that if the oil industry declines significantly, there will be hardly any asphalt left. "We have enough roads!". Then I come to Africa, where most of the roads are just dirt tracks and concrete is the ideal material for road construction. The architect then hurries off. For me, this is an extreme case of racism against Africans, we have our roads, the Africans simply don't need something like that.
The mayor and the architect, victims of the illusory world of jubilant reports about renewable energy and that we have almost made it, all just a matter of a few years. Here is a quote from the website of Prof. Volker Quaschning: "The gigawatt limit for globally installed photovoltaic capacity was already exceeded in 2000. The terawatt limit, i.e. 1000 GW, will be reached in 2022. If below-average annual growth of 20% continues over the next few years, one terawatt of new installations can be expected annually around 2030. The global stock would then have grown to around 6,000 gigawatts." According to my calculations, however, we need 200,000 GW of photovoltaics. 6,000 GW in 2030 would be a modest 3% of this. In this illusory world of cheering news, GEMINI houses and energy-optimized residential areas are completely superfluous, so we have to get people out of this illusory world.
What is the cheapest way to buy electricity? What is the most expensive way to sell electricity? A few hours and an electricity trader with spot market prices can lie between the two answers. Here is an explanation of what balancing energy means Spotty Energie answered my question about balancing energy with "Yes, we will offer our customers participation in the balancing energy markets in the medium term". Participation in the balancing energy market will be an important opportunity for the GEMINI next generation houses to earn more money with the houses' energy system. I have been a Spotty Energie customer since December 2023 and am very satisfied, switch to Spotty Energie here
Net zero emissions means reducing greenhouse gas emissions to a level that nature can supposedly absorb for a long time. For the rich, this means Maintain poverty, cause poverty, so that enough emission rights remain for the rich. See the architect and her opinion that Africans don't need roads.
Planetary cleanup back to 350 ppm CO2 means around 47,000 TWh of electricity to filter 1 ppm CO2 from the atmosphere and recycle it into carbon and oxygen. Who can afford that? Only a rich humanity, 10 billion people in prosperity can do it.
It is a decision between 3 directions:
It's not about whether the shares will be worth 10 times or 100 times more in 20 years' time or whether they will only be worth a few cents. It's about the future of us all. Will there be a big showdown between eco-fascism and yesterday's fossils, or will it be possible to overcome the deep divisions in society and inspire supporters of both sides to work towards a great new goal? Global prosperity and planetary restoration instead of saving, restricting, renouncing and climate catastrophe or peak oil and a little more climate catastrophe. Both sides must be convinced that there is no solution that is even remotely viable. On the one hand, it must be shown that net-zero emissions are a completely inadequate target and that the goal must instead be a planetary clean-up back to 350 ppm CO2. The other side must be shown that solar power enables a higher standard of living than fossil energy. It's about survival! The social situation in 2024 compared to 2004. Extrapolating that to 2044 makes for a horror world! If we are successful and your shares are worth 100 times more, this is just an addition to all the other achievements. One new shareholder said "I with my very modest investment", but €4,000 times €1,000 is also €4 million for all investments up to the opening of the settlement in Unken as a starting point for global expansion. There is a reward program for recommending the share to others. Two of the new shareholders have become shareholders through this reward program. Here are the details.
My studies on off-grid fast-charging settlements have already resulted in initial contact and a video conference with the CEO of a major African company. The most important statements: "There are about 2 million homes missing" and "Solar-powered cement factories are a fascinating new idea". There are several chances of an event that could lead to a jump in the share price. At today's share price, € 2 million would be 10,000 packages at € 200 and 300,000 shares for the buyer. However, if these € 2 million are only worth 20% of the AG, this would logically result in a very significant jump in the share price. |
