Industry expertise energy

To achieve the goal of climate neutrality by 2045, Germany will have to massively increase the pace of trans­formation of the entire energy sector in the coming years. The annual expansion of re­newable energies will require a tripling or qua­dru­pling of the invest­ments made in recent years. Construction of infra­structure such as new power grids must be sped up, and the ramp-up of the hydrogen market and the expansion of storage tech­nolo­gies must be sig­nifi­cantly accelerated. The German KfW bank estimates that around 500 billion euros of additional invest­ment will be required over the next 25 years to achieve these goals.

The energy sector does not just involve a lot of capital, it is also highly political and dependent on a variety of different regu­la­tory inter­ventions. Energy supply has become a decisive factor in many companies’ business success. The diverse, very complex require­ments of European, national and local authorities with regard to how our energy supply is organised must be aligned and result in robust, effective long-term invest­ment strategies for companies. The same applies to credible strategies within the frame­work of climate policy require­ments. In order to remain fit for the future, economic, energy and climate policy goals must be harmonised.
