Electricity costs have skyrocketed in the wake of the Ukraine war, placing a heavy burden on many businesses and households. A massive expansion of renewable energies would not only increase security of supply and reduce CO2 emissions. "Increased production of wind and solar energy, as studies show, can also ensure cheaper electricity prices," explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

Germany is one of Europe's pioneers in renewable energies. The vast sums of money invested in recent years to promote and build renewables is now showing its worth: With strong winds over Europe in recent days, wind turbines produced as much electricity that prices in Germany were lower compared to all of its neighbouring countries. And finally fell back into bearable regions. - A commentary by Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

The rising demand for electricity, an immensely positive political climate and growing opportunities for diversification are making investments in renewable energies increasingly attractive. And these are not the only advantages: "For institutional investors in particular, there is hardly any way around renewables", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

It is not only the Russian gas freeze that underlines the need for the rapid expansion of renewable energies. Around the world, massive droughts and catastrophic floods also show the consequences of extreme weather events, which will increase with climate change. In July, German politicians decided to significantly expand wind power in particular. "Overall, however, the pace must be increased", explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.
