Leute, bitte holt euch Solarpanels, bisschen Speicher, wenn möglich, steigt auf Wärmepumpe um.

They don't. They received support at times. But when I bought my balcony power plant in 2023, the city's funding pool was already empty.
@byggvir @madeindex @NixNick @energisch_ @Bundesregierung The problem with the UK proposal, according to electricians, is that there are no UK standards applicable to such kit. So, unless something is done about it, anybody can sell any old dangerous crap, and anyone can then buy and use it.

@NixNick Somebody told me the German government completely funds those small balcony solar systems in certain cities

Some municipalies actually do, not designed as „completely“, but with flat amounts, and if you have the right conditions and Shop smartly, you could end up in Break even extremely fast.
Actually the Panels aren’t the biggest driver on the Shopping list; mostly, mounting is it.

@madeindex not completely, but you get really cheap deals and almost everywhere is possible. It's a small impact, but together, millions, it's gigawatts that are not needed in fossil fuels. @NixNick @Bundesregierung

Locally used
The networks and large scale storage needed for a broader impact are sadly not even close to ready in most countries. @NixNick @Bundesregierung -
Leider sind viele Bürgerwerke, was Anteilshöhe und Bindefristen angeht, schon eher was für jene, die es sich leisten können.
(Mal davon ab, dass ich persönlich ein Investment davon abhängig machen würde, ob zeitgleich und möglichst am Standort auch Speicher entstehen, was leider selten ist.)
@Saupreiss Speicherausbau hängt auch davon ab, wie viele Stromabnehmer*innen sie haben und wie viel Geld zur Verfügung steht. Aber es gibt auch Anbieter wie polarstern, greenpeace energy, lichtblick, die auch in erneuerbare Energien investieren und die mensch als Kund*in unterstützen kann. Auch viele Stadtwerke sind gut aufgestellt mit erneuerbarem Ausbau. Also gucken, wo was geht. Hauptsache, so bald wie möglich ganz raus aus den Fossilen @Bundesregierung

@madeindex @energisch_ @NixNick @Bundesregierung That’s wrong. But they pay themselves within 1- 3 years.

But in Germany, we have to succeed despite all the obstacles our gov puts in our way. Our current @Bundesregierung is a fossilist gov. Unfortunately.

#EndFossilFuelsMit fortschreitendem Ausbau ist es erstens ein wirtschaftliches Risiko (viel Strom für lau erzeugen ist weniger spannend, als den danach zu verhökern), die meist potente Netzanbindung kann man auch gut nutzen, um „überschüssigen“ Sonnenstrom in den Abend zu retten, dafür sind die Spreads hoch genug. Netzdienlich, lukrativ, dezentral und Gaskillend.

@TimWardCam Highly interesting!
Do you by any chance know the specific issue they have?

@NixNick@energisch_
Guess this is for you too then
https://mastodon.social/@madeindex/114133104483587481Yeah, the people of the world would do it themselves if the bureaucracy, taxes and legal weren't so high & difficult.
Localized smart grids for electricity & heat (e.g. from factories etc.) could easily solve the energy problems.
But it would also reduce dependance, not sure that is in the interest of our Elites...

@madeindex exacty, they don't want our energy independence, they rather see us in chains & :shackles @Bundesregierung @NixNick

@energisch_ Easier to control & milk us slaves

These days there are even hybrid solar thermal panels. These can produce your heat, hot water and energy all in one.
Guess how much they are doing to push those to the mainstream?You guessed right, ZERO, only people in the field even know about them. Crazy right?
-
@NixNick Jemand sagte @madeindex dass die Regierung Balkonsolar in einigen Städten fast komplett finanziert. Hab geschrieben, dass sie billig sind und fast überall zum Einsatz kommen können, im Gesamtvolumen Gigawatt an fossiler Energie einsparen.
@energisch_ @madeindex Danke!

@madeindex @energisch_ @Bundesregierung @NixNick Same in Croatia in 2024. Really strange. All the AC in buildings suck electric power during summer, and could be completely powered by solar panels. But there was just nothing.

@neuimneuland
I guess there is little incentive for many and little education on the subject. In countries with low electricity prices, the adoption seems to be much slower. One of the few advantages to Germany's & Denmark's insane prices?
