Green Energy Development imprisoned German electricity depression change "luxury"

While Sweden kWh of clean energy than conventional electricity costs only about 10% higher

    Since Japan's Fukushima nuclear accident, Germany decided to stop the development of nuclear energy, wind energy and solar module driven open new energy era. But two and a half later, more and more people realize that this grand blueprint looks beautiful, implementation has been plagued with problems.

    Xinhua News Agency, in Europe, Germany, price is always the most expensive, and the government has failed to effectively control the cost of new energy production, energy is becoming a luxury.

    According to the German "Der Spiegel" reported that German consumers this year will be solar, wind and biogas energy to pay 200 million euros, while its market price is only worth 3 billion euros.

    20 billion cost for

    Electricity price 3000000000

    This € 20 billion does not include the unpredictable costs. Because the weather reason, how to build solar panels and wind turbines can sometimes produce a lot of power, sometimes nothing. When the power is too large, the need to shut down the wind turbine, but consumers have to pay for the cost of electricity generated theoretically.

    On the other hand, sometimes the wind turbine suddenly stopped, especially in the cold season, the power supply becomes tight, traditional heavy oil and coal-fired power plants will be restarted in order to compensate for power shortages. This is the carbon dioxide emissions in Germany in 2012 is higher than 2011's sake.

    If still not alleviate the shortage of electricity, in order to protect the power grid, some of the big power, such as the ArcelorMittal steel company, etc., will be forced to stop production. Stop the loss, of course, be borne by consumers.

    "Der Spiegel" is expected in the near future, the German general family of three average monthly electricity bill will reach 90 euros, twice in 2000.

    Swedish power generation

    45% rely on new energy

    2000 on the occasion, the Swedish era into green energy, while facing a severe economic crisis. National Energy Agency experts Gustav Aibei Na said: "when one thing is clear, that is necessary for the development of renewable energy as much as possible to control costs."

    Swedish model, the cost of clean energy kWh than conventional electricity only about 10% higher. Currently, 45% of Sweden's hydroelectric generating capacity from traditional into new energy sources, while the corresponding proportion in Germany is only 10%.

    Sweden, the use of "government quotas, market produce certificates" model of development. "In a sense, it is a subsidy program with Germany on the contrary," lived in Germany for many years, familiar with the German energy reform Aibei Na said.

    Swedish model is suitable for Germany? To this end the German government set up a special committee, whose members submit program proposals, the government issued a green energy supplier to the energy index, and then gradually increase its production targets. The deadline for the first phase is January 1, 2015, when 27.5% of electricity from renewable energy sources; 2016, this proportion rose to 29%; until 2020 reached 35%.

    As for what kind of green energy development, the energy companies and municipal public agencies can choose. The Committee believes that energy suppliers will be reasonably used his own money to develop wind, solar or biomass, and municipal public agencies are seeking the lowest market price. This mechanism would enable consumers to benefit from competition.

    Follow the principles of market economy

    Energy suppliers in order to prevent falsification of indicators, Sweden requires them to submit a series of green energy certificates, each certificate represents completion of a MWh indicators, if not complete index will be heavy fines.

    Its addition, all are to follow market economy principles: When the green energy production is low, the price naturally goes up, it will encourage investors to build more wind turbines or solar matrix can also invest in pumped storage system that allows energy production more efficient and reasonable.

    Swedish Energy Minister Anna - Karin Hart said, the biggest advantage is that the Swedish model is not bureaucratic restrictions, the Government set a target, without limiting means.
