Technology-neutral scenarios best for Germany鈥檚 future energy system - study

German Energy Agency (dena)

Germany can lower its CO鈧 emissions by 90 percent by 2050 if current technologies are used in the most efficient way for an ambitious transformation of the country鈥檚 energy system, writes the German Energy Agency (dena) in a press release. The next federal government must ensure that these technologies can compete in a market economy. 鈥淭he energy transition is feasible if we approach it determinedly, in a technology-neutral way, and in the context of a wide dialogue with stakeholders鈥, said dena head Andreas Kuhlmann at a presentation of the interim results of a study the agency is currently working on with numerous energy transition actors. The study is meant to identify solutions and frameworks for a sustainable energy system by 2050. Technology-neutral scenarios prove better than those that, for example, focused too much on a high degree of electrification, writes dena. The sector-specific emission reduction targets set out in the Climate Action Plan 2050 have to be readjusted, says dena.
