Die Energiewende wird erwachsen (DZ Bank)
|
|
|
Die Bundesregierung will die Energiewende kosteneffizienter gestalten. Bundeswirtschaftsministerin Reiche verfolgt dabei vor allem das Ziel, den Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien, der Batteriespeicher sowie Großverbraucher (unter anderem Rechenzentren) besser auf den Netzausbau abzustimmen und regional zu steuern. Die vorgesehenen Reformen enthalten unseres Erachtens allerdings keine Maßnahmen, die die Erneuerbare-Energien-Branche existenziell bedrohen würde..

Gas-, Strom- und Spritpreise werden zum Kostentreiber Nr. 1 (Tichys Einblick)
|
|
|
Die Gasspeicher in Deutschland sind nur zu 56 Prozent gefüllt – und damit auf einem derart niedrigen Stand, dass die Bundesregierung nun doch eingreift und den bundeseigenen Gaseinkäufer SEFE angewiesen hat, Gas zu Höchstpreisen zu kaufen. Knappheit treibt den Preis: Bereits im Juli dieses Jahres hatte ich auf die drohende Notlage hingewiesen. Doch während Gas

Trump EPA′s arguments for letting power plants spew unlimited pollution ′dead wrong′ (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Claims that dismantling pollution rules will lower energy bills and have little climate impact are far from convincingIn allowing US power plants to emit any amount of planet-heating pollution they wish to, the Trump administration made two striking claims – that this will cut Americans' electricity bills and that the pollution itself doesn't really matter anyway. Both claims struggle to stand up to even basic scrutiny.On Monday, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said it would erase any limits on emissions from coal and gas plants that are dangerously heating up our planet. This move, which follows a similar dismantling of pollution limits from cars ands trucks, is part of a broader push to eliminate the longstanding legal authority of this, or any future, US administration to deal with the climate crisis.

Largest US Power Grid Faces Dire Crisis By 2030 If Data Center Load Growth Continues
By 2030, the PJM Interconnection, the largest US electrical grid in the US serving 67 million people in 13 northeast states, is likely to face a “loss of load expectation,” or LOLE - a key reliability metric used by power system planners to measure the expected number of hours or days per year that a power grid's electricity generation will fail to meet customer demand - between six and 100 times worse than the grid operator's planning criterion, mainly due to the addition of large-load data centers, according to a study commissioned by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission.
The PUC and the firms that produced the report - Synapse Energy Economics, Mondre Energy and Aspen Technologies - characterized it as an independent analysis aimed at developing load projections and evaluating resource adequacy under a set of likely possible futures, according to UtillityDive.

EPA Repeals Biden-Era Carbon Rules For Power Plants
As previewed here yesterday, late on Monday the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said that it finalized a rule repealing most of the carbon-emission limits for coal- and natural gas-fired power plants and proposed a separate measure that could restrict similar regulations in the future. Appropriately, the Sept. 14 announcement came at the G20 energy event in Houston.
The EPA projects that the two actions announced on Sept. 14 would save about $310.4 billion if the proposed repeal is finalized.
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said the changes would allow the United States to build power-generating infrastructure to meet a rapidly rising demand.
