The efficiencies of both wind and solar plants have made great progress in recent years. The next step in increasing efficiency now lies less in the plants and more in their operation: "This is where Operations Management 4.0 is currently being developed", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "By using artificial intelligence, the energy yield can be increased even more significantly."

Investments in renewable energies have proven their stability during the pandemic crisis. In view of the rising demand for green electricity, falling prices for the plants and AI-supported optimization of output, the yields of the plants can be increased even further in the coming years. "And this from currently already solid 4.5 percent in Germany and up to 8.5 percent in Spain ", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

Renewable energy production was mixed in August. Photovoltaic systems were exactly on plan, with Italy even above plan. However, wind power output remained weak, only 83 percent of the target was reached. This means that the buffer built up over the course of the year is also melting away.

The pandemic crisis has shown the vulnerability of society. Although the infrastructure was only affected to a very limited extent, energy production and distribution in particular are highly critical. "Renewable energies are much less vulnerable than other energy sources and will therefore become the backbone of the energy supply," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group.
