The Green parliamentary group in the German Bundestag is hosting the online conference “Rethinking Cities” on March 19, 2021. We are participating in the virtual exhibition.

Rethinking the energy transition: The price lie
|
|
|
|
The demand for “more money for climate protection” is based on the price lie. But we need more motivation, credit and opportunity for a real effective energy transition.
|
Summer / winter balancing of solar power — seasonal storage
|
|
|
|
Different approaches to summer/winter balancing compared. Seven different locations, from Oslo to Cairo, are examined for seasonal balancing.
|
Energy change — Food change — Social change
|
|
|
|
Everyone is only talking about the energy transition for climate protection, but we also need a change in food production and in the social sphere. A solution for all 3 changes.
|
Would Germany be possible with 100% solar electricity?
|
|
|
|
The expansion of wind energy is faltering. Is wind energy really indispensable for the energy transition or would it even work with exclusively 100% solar power?
|
Ventilation systems with heat and moisture recovery
|
|
|
|
Extremely economical and quiet, yet large power reserves to have the best indoor air quality even at a large party. Is of course part of the basic equipment.
|
More efficiency in heating, cooling and hot water by 3 new patents
|
|
|
|
How can you achieve a higher COP with an air-source heat pump than with a ground-source heat pump, and how can you drastically reduce the amount of electricity needed to heat water?
|
Disruption at houses
|
|
|
|
The market for homes is in as horrifying a state as the electric car market was in 2003: in the year Tesla was founded, the Peugeot 106 was a top electric car.
|
A visual misunderstanding,
|
|
|
|
or how a house shrank to 2/3 of its size. Because of this visual misunderstanding, the video “Disruption in Houses” was published again with improved graphics.
|
Investing in disruption for survival: GEMINI 1991 to 2023
|
|
|
|
In 1991, the “GEMINI habitable solar power plant” was extremely far ahead of its time, but in 2021, “GEMINI next Generation” has the potential for the next big disruption.
|
Dynamics of goals and decisions
|
|
|
|
The invention of the catalyst in 1950 developed a momentum that will lead to the end of the ICE. Rio 1992, Paris 2015 will likewise establish the CPSH building standard.
|
IPCC Report 2021: “Net Zero Emissions” Fairy Tale and its Devastating Consequences
|
|
|
|
Constantly contradicting itself, the IPCC 2021 report adheres to the completely inadequate “net zero emissions” target. This can only be thinking prohibitions.
|
COP 26 Glasgow UN Climate Change Confereneze 2021 Preview and pre critic
|
|
|
|
Actually, COP 1 should have been Stockholm 1914 and COP 26 Berlin 1939, but somehow they had other priorities then, just like today with Glasgow 2021.
|
Iron-air battery - will decentral summer/winter balancing become standard?
|
|
|
|
A new big duel is emerging: hydrogen fuel cells, power to methane and combined cycle power plants against the iron-air battery. Where can the iron-air battery save costs?
|
Critique Fraunhofer ISE "Pathways to a Climate-Neutral Energy System"
|
|
|
|
For 2050, grotesquely few batteries are envisaged. Instead of enough batteries and Power to X, there will be electricity exports at the lowest price and electricity imports in extremely high price periods.
