Die Energiewende erfordert Investitionen in nahezu allen Sektoren. Das EWI schätzt den entsprechenden Investitionsbedarf für ausgewählte Sektoren in einem Plan-Szenario bis zum Jahr 2030 und diskutiert mögliche Implikationen.
Germany relies heavily on imports for its hydrogen supply. A new EWI study analyzes the local conditions of more than 80 countries focusing on hydrogen supply security.
Heat pumps are a central component in the shift towards sustainable heating. Due to economies of scale, large-scale heat pumps supplying several residential buildings in settlements or neighborhoods prove to be an efficient decarbonization option.
The project “Building a Sustainable Energy Future” (BaSEF) addresses the importance of green hydrogen in future energy systems. It also focuses on producing and exporting hydrogen in Egypt.
The recently passed GEG could lead to a sharp increase in the absolute number of heat pumps in Germany. Compared with its cabinet draft, however, the installation numbers are lower.
The controllable power plant capacity in NRW is decreasing due to the coal phase-out. In a current study, the EWI examines the security of supply of the electricity system in 2030 from a market and a network perspective.
