Wind farms are to be greatly expanded, especially in the less windy south of Germany. A study has cast doubt on the profitability of southern wind farms. "But this leaves out the fact that operators and investors alike have long relied on plant-specific yield assessments", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group. "In addition, the plants are becoming more efficient through technical as well as organizational advancements - and that ensures profitability."

Full storage facilities, high temperatures, thrifty consumers and an abundant supply of liquefied petroleum gas have driven energy prices down again in recent weeks. Although the situation remains tense against the backdrop of the Ukraine war and the approaching winter, "In our estimation, the easing of electricity prices in particular will continue for a while", explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

The 27th World Climate Conference has begun in the Egyptian seaside resort of Sharm El Sheikh. It is already clear that the international community will miss its climate targets. The EU will probably tighten its own targets again. "Ambitious plans alone will not solve the problem, however", explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

The price increases on the energy markets threaten the profitability of companies. Many companies are therefore moving towards building their own production capacities for green electricity. "This makes costs predictable for a long time", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream group. "In addition, companies meet sustainability requirements in this way." For companies, the importance of such projects will only increase.
