The expansion of solar power generation in Germany is progressing. Compared to the previous year, the number of installations has increased by almost 30 per cent. "The figures show: The future belongs to renewables", comments Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. However, in view of climate change and record temperatures, it is important not to rest on past successes.

Energy prices are becoming a problem for more and more companies in Germany. Industry in particular is suffering from high costs, but also from strong price fluctuations. "PPAs, long-term electricity supply contracts, are an optimal alternative“, says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "PPAs offer full cost control." Or companies can build their own power supply systems.

Success stories are piling up in the renewable energy sector: Their share of total energy consumption continues to rise. „But it's too early to rejoice“, warns Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. „After all, almost the entire society is to be electrified, which will drive up electricity consumption.“ Renewables must therefore continue to be consistently expanded - and private capital must be raised for this.

Finally some good news from the German wind energy sector: the number of contracts awarded in the latest round of tenders for onshore turbines climbed to a record high. "However, the good figures conceal the fact that it is still taking too long to process the tenders and that the awards are distributed very differently from region to region," comments Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.
