Thesis I

For a sustainable energy supply we have to become carbon dioxide free until 2040. Otherwise we risk to sink our costal cities. In the longer term we risk a sea level rise of up to 70 meters. The current installation rates for renewable power even in Germany are to low for an effective climate protection.

Thesis II

If we keep the high installation rates for renewable power for the next 10 years we do not need base load power stations anymore. Then, it will be impossible to run nuclear

  • r brown coal power stations economically.

This is why the big power companies and some politicians now want to reduce new renewable installations significantly.

Thesis III

The immense price reduction of photovoltaic systems will start a revolution in the energy sector within this decade. Photovoltaic systems must not compete to utility operated power stations because they can be installed directly at the consumer. PV will be fully competitive very soon and is

  • ne major hope for climate protection and

global access to electricity.
