Če bi Nemčija želela zgolj premostiti obdobje, ko ni vetra (Dunkelfklaute), bi do leta 2035 morala namestiti najmanj za 14 TWh kapacitet baterij (bolj realistično za 30 TWh), kar bi po sedanjih cenah Teslinih baterij stalo 3.64 USD oziroma 83 % nemškega BDP v letu 2023! No, če bi bila Tesla v stanju takšno količino baterij tudi proizvesti. Za Nemčijo bi bilo bistveno ceneje, če bi namesto tega nadomestno elektriko raje uvažala (iz francoskih nukleark). Oziroma če Nemčija svojih nukleark ne bi zaprla, tega problema sploh ne bi imela. Ampak kaj, ko je pa ideologija močnejša od pameti…
In my thread from Dec 2022 below, I explained one challenge for the German Energiewende as legislated today: Dunkelflauten – prolonged periods with little wind or sunlight.
To keep the grid safe, Germany will likely need 14 TWh of chemical storage by 2035 to survive a Dunkelflaute. But 30 TWh are more realistic.
What would such storage cost today, were Tesla able to produce it ever (it couldn’t today)?
3.854 GWh (3,854 MWh) cost US$ 1 billion today, before maintenance & installation. Germany will need 14,000 GWh (14 TWh) or 3,633 of the below grid packs…!
Cost before maintenance and installation: US$ 3.64 trillion. Does everybody understand such cost? The German GDP is USD 4.4 trillion in 2023.
But can Germany not just import French nuclear power to close some of the Dunkelflaute gap? Sure, if France permits and has enough excess capacity. And what will be that price under Le Pen?
And then why did the German government turn off their 20 GW nuclear power plants in the first place if that is the Energiewende plan? If the plan is that neighboring countries bail Germany out? It had the safest nukes globally running until 2022..!
The German Energiewende is to Germany what Biden is to the democratic party right now: everybody knows it can not work but one keeps going anyway. After all, the Green party cannot admit such fundamental mistakes and survive.
But don’t blame them. It’s the people that voted for their ideology and incompetence that are to blame.
The problem now: all ordinary citizens will pay the invoice for incompetence and mass hysteria in Germany and Europe as Germany will push up the price everywhere at the margin over time and until this most dangerous insanity is abandoned.

Zanimivo, da avtor tega besedila piše v angleščini in tudi vi očitno ne znate nemško dovolj dobro, da bi opazili lastno napako v edini nemški besedi, ki ste jo sploh napisali.
Še hobi ekonomist kot jaz je do sedaj razumel, da ni toliko pomembno koliko nekaj stane. Bolj pomembno je, da se denar vrti v državi, se plačajo davki in čim manj denarja zapusti ta krog, kar v Nemčiji tudi poskušajo narediti. V Sloveniji pa pri jedrskih projektih to ni možno in zato državi lahko pri tem nastane ogromna ekonomska škoda. Mogoče ste že slišali za nemški izraz, ki to opisuje: volkswirtschaftlicher Schaden. Pri vsakem velikem projektu v državi je potrebno pogledati koliko denarja izgine iz kroga in to je resnična cena projekta.
Ne zanikam pa tega, da sem za elektriko lani plačeval v Nemčiji 43 centov in letos 37 centov za kWh in tudi tega ne, da je dražje polniti električni avto na javnih polnilnicah kot natočiti bencin za isto razdaljo na nemških črpalkah, kar seveda kaže na to, da to vodi v smer, ki jo prebivalstvo ne bo podprlo.
