aream Press release

Germany is expected to have missed its climate targets again in 2022. The main cause was the gas shortage in the wake of the Ukraine war. The shortfall was partially compensated for by the use of dirtier energy sources. "Admittedly, last year brought record renewable energy production," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "Nevertheless, policy-makers need to step up the pace in order to still achieve the targets we are aiming for."

The power supply is increasingly causing problems for industry: Costs are exploding and strong price fluctuations make calculation difficult. On the other hand, customers, politicians and business partners are increasingly demanding the use of renewable electricity sources. “For industrial customers, it is therefore becoming increasingly attractive to supply themselves with green power”, says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. “This strengthens sustainability, competitiveness and predictability.”

Renewable energies are one of the major growth areas - which is also reflected in the aream Group's business development. "We have a strong year behind us and big plans for the future", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group. "The project pipeline is well filled, and the economic and political environment remains very favorable for developers and investors alike."

The Russian supply freeze is driving up gas prices, forcing Germany to switch to LNG, more expensive liquefied natural gas. Admittedly, the German government is expanding LNG capacities. But it is foreseeable that gas will remain expensive in the coming years. "A sustainable drop in the price of electricity is therefore not to be expected for years to come", explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "Renewable energies thus remain an excellent investment."
