Good morning,
I just received a steep price increase from my energy provider enercity, raising the cost to 15 cents per kWh starting in August. That’s really tough, and I think prices will rise even further.
It’s a strange feeling to be thrown back so quickly into an energy supply situation where you have to figure out how to keep the house warm. It seems to me that the government has given up on the goal of enabling everyone to adequately cover at least their basic needs.
Goodbye central supply structures; now the winner is whoever has solar panels and a heat pump in their new build, while the others are left out.
Welcome back, coal heating 😕
Frustrated regards,

Would you like to live next to a nuclear power plant?
Or near a nuclear waste repository? My grandparents live and lived in Gorleben. My grandfather passed away two years ago at the age of 98 (not from cancer or anything else), and my grandmother is 96 and still runs around the garden.
Okay, Gorleben is not officially a nuclear waste repository, but only officially 😉
So it can’t be that bad after all.

Okay, Gorleben is not officially a final repository, but only officially 😉
So it probably isn't that bad after all But it is also quite simple: Of course, nuclear waste can be stored in a way that nothing happens in the short term.
If nothing ever happens, then it has actually been stored safely.
So it is possible, but you only know for sure afterwards.

Or next to a nuclear waste repository? As long as the complete idiot continues the war and there are no alternatives, yes, gladly.
Unfortunately, it will not end; he will get enough support from China, who also have the technology and components. It is only a matter of time.

RotorMotor6 Aug 2022 08:45@Dogma but that doesn’t answer the question of whether you actually want to live there.
@Offtopic the war has little to do with that.
It has been going on for six months. In contrast, the construction of a nuclear power plant takes 5 to 10 years.

Do we get as much gas from the USA as we would through NS2?If Nord Stream 2 were operating at full capacity, then yes.About twice the amount would be possible (including transport losses). However, based on past experience, we know that the quantities promised by the supplier on paper often don’t match reality (there’s always some issue), so most likely only 20-40% of the possible gas volume would actually flow through the additional twin pipelines.
At 30% supply volume via Nord Stream 2, we would have parity with the current LNG imports from the USA.
To put it simply, Nord Stream 1 currently delivers 20% less gas to Europe than the USA does with LNG.

Again: Since 2011, Conservative-led governments have implemented a 100% green energy policy, especially in the energy sector. Now the Greens are facing the shortcomings of their ideology and ultimately the physical fact that 100 wind turbines produce exactly the same amount of energy as 1,000 wind turbines during calm weather – namely 0.0 kWh. The nonsense about calm weather has been explained to you dozens of times by now, but you either don’t want to or can’t understand it. So let’s leave it at that.
IF the Conservatives had pursued a 100% green energy policy, we would be in a better position now. But they didn’t. The expansion of the Renewable Energy Act was repeatedly artificially delayed, through tendering procedures, target corridors, and so on. All for the balanced budget, which doesn’t help us either because Southern Europe would face problems earlier than we would in any case.
