> not caring that renewables are decades away Pffft... If the government wuold decide to buy balcony solar systems for 1.000 Euro each for every household, that would come down to a mere 41 billion Euro for the whole state and that would solve lots of all of this. They found 100 billion for the Bundeswehr without any problem in the blink of an eye. If you really wanted, the whole energy topic would be set up and solv…
You're forgetting that not everyone wants such a thing on their balcony and that you'll need to find someone to manufacture all of that (other countries want their solar still, too; it doesn't help us to deny Australia years of solar panel production only to put many on cloudy north-facing German balconies). I don't know what the acceptance percentage as well as a realistic manufacturing rate is at such an order size…
- Let's make it mandatory to install fixed solar systems for new development areas and any newly build commercial buildings. The state will subsidize 90% of the cost for the initial setup for private households, for companies it's just a tax deductible expense.
- You want to retrofit your existing house with a fixed solar system? That's 90% subsizidation for you, too!
- You have a multi-party house (details needed) or a professional housing company? You'll have to retrofit your buildings in 5 years of time from now on.
- Let's retrofit all public buildings with solar systems. No excuses, execution asap.
- The state will encourage research and development of energy storage sytems by providing funds to universities etc.
We'll also need to have lots of laws changed and have our energy companies put in to place, but if the cost is low for the individual person, people will just make this happen.
Yeah, it will cost some money, but the money is there, it's just an allocation problem.
