Klimaziele und Marktdesign, Resilienz und Finanzierung der Energiewende – zahlreiche Fachleute diskutierten beim 75. Jubiläum der EWI-Energietagung über wirtschaftliche und rechtliche Grundfragen der Energiewirtschaft.

The latest event in the “EWI Insights” webinar series focused on investment requirements in the context of the energy transition and the electricity price package from a regulatory economics perspective.

To assess the market development of hydrogen in Germany, EWI has developed the H₂Market Index, providing insight into the evaluation of stakeholders regarding the market ramp-up.

The gas supply situation in Europe has eased thanks to LNG imports and declining consumption. However, risks such as weather conditions, LNG availability and gas imports from Russia remain for the winter. This is shown by an analysis of gas volumes and consumption.

Die Energiewende erfordert Investitionen in nahezu allen Sektoren. Das EWI schätzt den entsprechenden Investitionsbedarf für ausgewählte Sektoren in einem Plan-Szenario bis zum Jahr 2030 und diskutiert mögliche Implikationen.

Germany relies heavily on imports for its hydrogen supply. A new EWI study analyzes the local conditions of more than 80 countries focusing on hydrogen supply security.

Heat pumps are a central component in the shift towards sustainable heating. Due to economies of scale, large-scale heat pumps supplying several residential buildings in settlements or neighborhoods prove to be an efficient decarbonization option.

The project “Building a Sustainable Energy Future” (BaSEF) addresses the importance of green hydrogen in future energy systems. It also focuses on producing and exporting hydrogen in Egypt.

The recently passed GEG could lead to a sharp increase in the absolute number of heat pumps in Germany. Compared with its cabinet draft, however, the installation numbers are lower.
