Grenzach-Wyhlen, December 5, 2019. Hydrogen production in Grenzach-Wyhlen in Baden-Württemberg (not far from Basel) can start. Energiedienst today received approval for the operation of the power-to-gas plant. All technical verifications and official clarifications have now been fulfilled.
In the state-of-the-art plant, Energiedienst produces hydrogen from self-generated green electricity using electrolysis. The electricity comes from the company's own hydroelectric power plant on the same site. The environmentally friendly hydrogen will initially be used in nearby industry. It is also planned to use it in local public transport. A comprehensive concept also envisages that the waste heat generated during electrolysis will be used to heat a new residential area. By linking electricity, mobility and heat supply in this way - keyword: sector coupling - the plant should help to reduce CO2 emissions and support the energy transition.
A year ago, Energiedienst officially inaugurated the power-to-gas plant together with the State Minister of Economics, Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU).
The plant has an output of one megawatt. In addition, there is 0.3 megawatts from an affiliated research facility of the ZSW (Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research). The state of Baden-Württemberg has funded this as part of a lighthouse project.
At the end of October, Energiedienst also submitted a concept for hydrogen for consideration in the "Reallabore der Energiewende" ideas competition run by the German Federal Ministry of Economics. The Federal Government attaches a key role to hydrogen, especially for the mobility of the future. The funding commitment from Berlin is still pending.

At the firstn Großveranstaltung in the Grand Palais Éphémère on dem Champ–de–Mars celebrated the 10th International Timber Construction Forum FBC an appearance, dhe President himself Macron and his ministers draws attention to building with wood.
Like never beforen at the anniversary appearance of the French Timber Construction Forum Content and packaging together. As an advertisement for timber construction, the temporary Grand Palais Ephémère for itself. In keeping with this, the Auditorium Ephémère was created especially for the Forum. made of curved CLT–Panels and the also for this issue developed Mstands "Belleville" from hardwood. Thise convincing Embedding the Message via den Change in Direction Building with renewable raw materials drew not only 6800 registered visitors to, sondern also two Minister and the President of the Republic, Macron. The intention, announced shortly thereafter, to Aid approved a year ago for the forestry– and timber sector by 100 million euros, stands unmistakably in the Context to this performance.

This approach had a consistent and invigorating effect on the visitors. The "Belleville" booths were attached to the Veranstaltion specialists GL Events sells, and the Auditorium interested the Organisers of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris for further use.

"Why do the same dreary apartment blocks have to be built everywhere?" asks F.A.Z. economics writer Nadine Oberhuber in Your post from 26.04.2017. She thinks "unambitious" is still the most harmless word of the viewers for the block architecture". As the main cause she quotes her F.A.Z. colleague and architecture critic Niklas Maak who observes a "radical economization of building", similar to the Bundesstiftung Baukultur.
Even the sustainable settlements cannot escape this pressure for returns and are becoming increasingly unimaginative, as I have unfortunately noticed in my observations over the last 20 years. "It's not pretty", as Gerhard Matzig puts it in his Contribution from 16.4. using the example of Munich's housing construction.
In the EEG draft
The German government plans to make a number of changes in the rooftop PV segment. According to information from pv magazine, an exemption from trade tax is planned and neighbourhood solutions are to become possible.
BSW-Solar concludes: "The German government urgently needs to make improvements, otherwise we will continue to head at high speed towards a climate protection and electricity generation gap. The compromise bill is far too timid, and at the same time too many important points are postponed. Unacceptable are the planned restrictions on the promotion of new larger solar roofs", explained Carsten Körnig, CEO of BSW-Solar.
For other solar associations, too, the EEG amendment does not go far enough, despite minor improvements:
