Does this link work for you in Denmark?

I warn since years of this, I say since years this is no hysteria, but a realistic scenario becoming true, and that the math behind it just does not work because it can never work.

Two days ago was my annual homeowners meeting. I've already prayed to them about all this many times, and no one wants to hear it or wants to believe it; everyone relies on the good Father State and oputs blind trust in it. Typical German, such servility makes me wanting to vomit on the table. We have to replace our oil heating system by 2026 at the latest for formal reasons. The majority would prefer to switch to heat pumps right now, out of anticipatory obedience. I have talked spirals and loopings and mercilessly sticked with my argument and demanded them to coutner me with arguments - nobody could, not one and not the many. had to threaten them with a small war about everything and every decision in the future to get them to desist from this madness as long as possible. We will be glad to have oil instead of gas or heat pump! Gritting their teeth, they gave in. The general mood all this has not served well, they are angry at me now. But I don't care. I'll fight this war every time, as long as I can, until 2025 inclusive. The difference between them and me is, I am the only owner who actuzally lives in the house, the others all are oinly investors not livng there, but leasing appartements. In three, four years - let's see how the situation is then. I predict that Habeck's heat pump madness will not be able to hold up until then, and many who have installed the damn things will then already be cursing heavily. In fact, in our street two people live who did install them - and regretted it this winter. The winter was relatively mild. The power bill nevertheless was insane, they said. Habekc wants to install heta pumps ins cores and nubmers. We do not even have the work force to do it at the pace he "envisions"! Not to mention the shortages in material. We need to get some repairs done on a door in the basement. Waiting time - FOUR MONTHS, so Corona does not object...

Of course, now I'm once again the bogeyman. And damn proud of it! It's no fun to have me at your throat....

Some feedback to this documentary from ZDF's WISO.

First I will say that the title of this documentary
"Blackout in Deutschland – Horrorszenario oder reale Gefahr?"

Really hit the..

Electricity-There are two on this dance

1. The production of electricity
2. The consumer of electricity.

As I see it we also need to invent/develop electronic equipment who use very little power.

Example my TV (51") Use 130-something Watt when I watch tv-While it use around 1 W on standby. What if it was possible to develop a smart tv who only use 1-5 W when on! And many other things we use in our household.

Edit
So I open FB to see what's new and I discover that a science page I follow had posted an issue-It made me remember this thread so I found this English homepage.

Quote:
Abstract:
Research on 100% renewable energy systems is a relatively recent phenomenon. It was initiated in the mid-1970s, catalyzed by skyrocketing oil prices. Since the mid-2000s, it has quickly evolved into a prominent research field encompassing an expansive and growing number of research groups and organizations across the world.

Or we listen to our extremely competent, realistic Minister for Climate and Economy, Robert Habeck, when he advises us to shower less often, shorter and colder. Even when sorting garbage, according to Habeck, we should remember that by composting organic waste (which the Greens massively obstruct for certainly other reasons) and the gases it produces, we are "scoring off Putin" (Habeck's original statement).

A country whose leading government politicians routinely indulge in such infantile as well as surreal platitudes (I could continue the list for hours) no longer has a future. It must perish - ultimately conditioned by the infantility of the people who live in it.

As Habeck's secretary of state says in the TV documentary, as blasé as he is stodgy: "We will succeed because we have a different mindset."

Aha. Na dann ist ja alles gut.

I copied and translated what it said in the Danish Science magazine.
(not the entire article though)

Quote:
Renewable energy can power the world by 2050
A world without fossil fuels and nuclear power is technically feasible within the foreseeable future. The switch to renewable energy can even pay off.

We don't need oil, gas or nuclear power. Renewable sources like solar and wind could provide enough energy for the entire planet by 2050, estimate an international team of scientists from 13 universities.

The researchers reviewed hundreds of studies on renewable energy systems published since the 1970s to get an overview of the potential for conversion in different parts of the world.

The technical solutions are in place everywhere and the switch can be made economically viable, they conclude in a scientific paper just published in the journal IEEE Access.
Maybe your politicians do believe this.

They believe wrong. And believing is not knowing anyway. They replace reality with ideology.

Thats what the documentation and the long text I posted, are all about.

The Greens are also a very left party, always have been, many of their key names over the years and decades firmly root in Matrcist and Maoist grounds. Destroying the burgeouse social model and repalce it with their wanted collectivism and turning Germany into a de-industrialised naive Hobbits country from their beginning on has been part of their agenda, since they formed up in West Berlin in the early 80s under the name GAL, later Bündis 90/Die Grünen. Anarchism and relativising even excusing pedophilia included.

Also, plenty of pro Russian sentimentalism and a glossing over the real nature of the GDR her ein Germany: "Not everything was bad in the GDR" by now has turned into a well organised and orchestrated Russia- and GDR nosthalgia that serves to transfigured memories. I said int eh aost that ver ymany Germans are feelign much closer to Russians than Americans, and I stick to it. Especially in the former GDR, the five new federal states, but not just there. Anti-Americanism is strong in Germany, and traditionally so in the Bubble-Olaf's own party, the SPD.

Like Nazis refuse to realise what the Third Reich was and what Hitler was, many German reuse to admit what the GDR and what dictatorship in it was. Unfprtunately, the old ones infest many young ones as well. The evil seed is spreading and handed from one generation to the next.

JUst short time ago I red something where a quote by George Orwell was given, when he was asked about the future as he sees it likely to come. Orwell was very pessimistic (I say: realistic), and expected a dystopic future, and he said: "The concept of objective truth is removed from the world."

Let that sentence sink in deeply.

Trump does so. Putin. The left. Eco-activists. Gender-ideologists. Bejing. The central banks. The EU. Germany. The IPCC panel. Everybody. They all battle against the idea that there can only be one objective truth, which implies other truths beside the one truth necessarily must be wrong. Something is true, implies by definition that all claimed other truths cannot be true, there is not different kinds of truths about a matter or subject. But now, everybody tries not to find real truth, but they all construct their own narrations that support their egoism and ambitions, and then they clal this fiction "truth". Often the ambition is very profane: securing or maximising financial profits. Science of most branches, universities, are absolutely corrupted by it. Its an intellectual desaster.

Oh, heat pumps do work. Of course they need lots of electricity, especially in the winter. And they cost around 20,000 Euros for a (very) small house, you rather need two.

But since energy comes out of the wall plugs for free there is nothing to worry about. This may be even true if they engage some nuclear power plants to provide the energy, but with solar panels alone? No nuclear energy, no coal, no oil, no gas? In the winter?
