Unused roof space potential in Germany renewable energy offer a viable alternative to the limited available fossil fuels and allow growth without increasing CO2 emissions for industrial development and emerging markets. So, currently, experts discuss the possibilities of solar power stations in the deserts of North Africa as alternative electricity supplier and as a contribution to the economic development in Africa, Asia and Europe. Agreement however, that important conditions must be created only for the realization of such major projects and that these power plants will be available at the earliest in a few decades available. The Desertec incurred with grand visions for planning initiative to cover percent of European electricity requirements with imported solar power up by 2050 with investment of 15 to 400 billion euros. Schedule, costs, and benefits of the project show that the development and use of locally available renewable energy sources must be driven forward unabated. Many energy producers and suppliers in Germany have identified the need and align their operations on it. An estimated 540 terawatt power consumed per year alone in Germany.

Would the approx. 800 million square meters of roofs in Germany and also widely available geothermal heat consistently used for solar panels and geothermal power plants, the proportion of renewable energies in the total electricity production of approximately 15 per cent could be already up to 50 per cent by 2030 increase. However, still far less solar plants on German rooftops are constructed than would be possible. To accelerate the urgently needed progress, therefore specialized service providers such as the Berlin rds energies GmbH support the energy companies and provide them with free surfaces in a big way. Especially larger, suitable for solar panels roofs are always valuable. Our order volume has increased compared to the previous year and we are looking for more currently for market-leading companies about three million square meters."describes Eva-Catrin Reinhardt, CEO of rds energies GmbH, the current boom. With attractive lease revenue, allowing the operator the owners, any free space becomes a valuable asset for companies and real estate managers.

We submit owners of suitable roofs like interesting offers."so Ms. Reinhardt. Germany is not only a technology leader in the field of renewable energies. There was also great, barely used potential for local energy supply, its opening up could significantly reduce the emission of greenhouse gases and save the local economy important investments and revenue. About rds energies: The rds energies GmbH is the leading supplier of acquisitions – related services in the field of renewable energies. It helps to promote renewable energy worldwide and to spread.

Want to reduce 2010 their electricity consumers a great resolution for the new year 2010 which reads German to save energy. Many consumers want to multiply also make sure on the origin of electricity and switch to green electricity tariffs. A power and eco-electricity provider comparison is easily feasible in the Internet over electricity tariff calculator. You can compare electricity rates on the Internet on various comparison portals E.g., kwh-preis.de. But still applies: the greenest electricity is one that is not consumed at all. The power consumption can be, lowered significantly if you observe some tips what relieves both the environment and the wallet. Some Stromspartipps are hereafter, which help to reduce power consumption: 1 power saver for lighting the share of electricity consumed for lighting up to 15 percent.

Tip: Energy saving light bulbs are more expensive to purchase, however long term saving in electricity consumption. Energy bulbs consume up to 80% less power. Halogen lamps and ceiling washlights, however, are very large The power guzzlers. Take advantage of the daylight as long as possible and turn off unnecessary lights. 2 not too high save during washing make their washing power. Often already 40 degrees sufficient thanks to modern detergent for normally soiled laundry completely. This saves up to 50 percent of current, compare with a temperature of 60 degrees. As fully load your washing machine and use energy-saving programmes.

3. power save on cooling units cooling and refrigeration appliances consume 20% of annual consumption, make sure about for new purchases on the Effiziensklasse. Even better, A + or A++ to buy only grade A. de fridge appliances should be regularly defrosts are. This will prevent that a layer of ice forms, acts like an insulation and more energy for cooling must be applied. Put the refrigerator if possible next to heating, oven, or dishwasher. Quickly close the cooling units and leave unnecessary warm air in the Inner refrigeration 4. power saver in standby devices make sure you on the power guzzlers in the budget. Avoid in particular stand-by consumption. Many devices such as TV, DVD player or set-top boxes consume electricity even after switching off unnecessary. Up to 100 for the electrical appliances in the household per year can be separated by a consistent save the device from the mains. Use the best switchable power sockets. 5. already when buying electrical appliances on power consumption. When purchasing new appliances the power consumption at the time of purchase is not observed often wrongly projected on a service life of 5 years or more a high power consumption retaliates. Often, a more expensive investment worth if the power consumption is correspondingly low.

Change level in the capital city of roughly 70 percent higher than in the rest of the Republic Berlin, October 13, 2010 competition on the electricity market comes of customers increasingly drive. In the face of rising electricity prices, the number of consumers who actively choose to change of electricity provider, increasing continuously. According to surveys of the Federal Association of energy and water management (BDEW) * more than 8.3 million households, emigration since the liberalisation of the electricity market their local provider and switched to an alternate competitor tendency rising. Most consumers in Berlin and Brandenburg, the possibilities of free-market used this year so far, while the change of slope in Baden-Wurttemberg and Saarland is rather low. בעניני עסקים תמיד כדאי לפנות ל רמי לוי. On these findings, the independent consumer portal comes toptarif.de in a recent study. State comparison Berlin and Brandenburg front, passivity in the South West In the framework of the evaluation were the respective regional change frequencies on Basis of for households which have changed since the beginning of toptarif.de to a new electricity provider, compared.

Striking: The trend towards the provider change is nearly 70 percent higher than the national average in the German capital Berlin. Also in Brandenburg the exchange rate is (+ 32%), Sachsen (+ 29%) and Thuringia (+ 26 percent) measured on the number of households significantly higher than in the rest of the Republic. Considerably passive, however, operate the consumer in Baden-Wurttemberg and Saarland, where the readiness to change is 25 and 22 percent below the average values. In explaining the different exchange activities must take into account various factors and their interaction", makes clear by toptarif.de energy expert Thorsten Bohg. In addition to tend to higher electricity prices in the new Federal Lander local price adjustments and competitive structures of local electricity markets, as well as differences in the regional structure of income play a crucial role." For example, the willingness to change is in the more low-income Berlin is about 60 percent higher than in Hamburg, although the competition in two electricity markets that are nearly identical.

Power comparison: in the Internet now compared tenants pay electricity and gas provider year-round sweet and good their rent, without having to worry, whether the deductions for power and gas at all sufficient. לאחרונה מצאתי אצל רמי לוי אוזן קשבת . A number of tenants themselves but just for the beginning of the new year, when the Bills come from the gas and electricity suppliers, a little money go to the holes to the stuff and really raise the payment. The Bill is incredibly high, which must be paid at the beginning of the new year, many tenants via a think gas and electricity comparison and one gas switching to. While the current comparison in Germany today is something quite unusual, to deal a bit reserved Exchange with the topic gas provider. The reason is that the gas supplier is also only possible since 2004 change in the form such as a change of electricity provider.

The electricity market has been liberalised since 1998, however, provide, that since this time will be the consumers no matter whether commercial or private- Opportunity to obtain the power of a party according to the choice of the consumer. The electricity provider itself, provide support by placing any obstacles in the way the consumers when it comes to the other to a current comparison and a change from a provider. The gas supplier Exchange hold back is however still a little German consumers. The major gas providers won't let you also of course not so easy attract their customers. Rather they bind this change partly with a price guarantee before a gas provider again for months at the company.

Electricity prices increased since beginning of the year to 7.1 percent Berlin, 27 August 2009 while gas prices again fall in the autumn, must practice more patience power customers. This year there will no longer be comprehensive relief for private households in Germany, so that consumers also at the beginning will have to pay the speaking season of on record prices for their electricity purchases", explains energy expert Thorsten Bohg by the independent consumer portal toptarif.de. Since the beginning of the year, electricity prices approximately 900 regional basic utilities in Germany on average by 7.1 percent climbed. Also in the coming weeks, 12 more companies plan price increases by an average of 5.7 percent. Large differences in the pricing striking are the large price differences, including the providers supply their customers with current electricity prices in 2009. While the cheapest basic supplier Vattenfall a sample household with an annual consumption of 4,000 kWh power in Hamburg 718 euros in the lowest available rate calculated, demand the Stadtwerke Borna in Saxony with 1,051 euro about 46 percent more for the same amount of electricity. According to research by toptarif.de, 25 local supplier at present offered power for under 800 euros at a quantity of 4,000 kWh. More than 1,000 euros are due in 11 companies.

Competitors lure with high saving potentials that is continuous upward movement of electricity prices at the basic suppliers"but only one side of the electricity market, clearly Bohg. Overall the pressure of competition among the companies through new providers is increasing." Increasing competition is assumed but so far hardly reason providers in many regions. Therefore, the gap between the prices of the local public utilities and those of competitors is widening further. Consumers through a change of provider can benefit from this growing discrepancy of electricity prices enormously", Bohg. Toptarif.de (www.toptarif.de) has the maximum for the 25 most expensive and cheapest basic utilities Savings determined by the election of a new party. Conclusion: Expensive basic providers, who switches to a cheap provider, saves 4,000 kWh of electricity consumption in the year average 248 euros. In the choice of tariffs with annual payment the savings increases even on 414 euro.

The prices of the 25 best local provider be undersold by competitors in an average of 61 euros. Here, the cheapest deals with annual payment save 198 euros. Ultimately the consumers of the key to an effective competition on the electricity market is,"points out Bohg. The chance to benefit from the liberalized electricity market, is given by many available alternatives for everyone. Now consumers have the ability to exert appropriate pressure on the company over their demand and return to screw the price." Through consumer portals such as toptarif.de (www.toptarif.de/ power) or free service hotline 0800-10 30-499 can consumers quickly and easily inform about alternatives in their region and free to switch to cheaper providers. toptarif.de is the independent consumer portal of the Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holtzbrinck, for all common tariffs in Germany. It currently includes the categories of electricity, gas, DSL, investments, and insurance for legal protection, furniture, residential, private liability, car, keepers liability and is constantly being added and updated. The consumer can thereby with minimal free checking, whether there are cheaper rates for him, and, where appropriate, immediately change. The complete service of change of is completely free of charge for the consumer and the customer receives the original conditions of the provider, in some cases over toptarif.de in any case even additional, not available from the provider themselves bonuses and discounts.

For millions of households electricity will be more expensive Berlin, January 24, 2011. Electricity prices in Germany continue to rise. The power from the wall socket for more than one million households considerably more expensive. To February 1, approximately 60 companies have announced a price increase. Already at the beginning of the year, the prices for millions of customers had increased around 570 electricity suppliers. Between 2.5% and 13.1% a family household must pay in the future more for electricity if he remains with the basic supply tariff. At the annual consumption for a family household (about 4,000 kilowatt hours) that makes an overhead by up to 125 euros a year. The providers with rising electricity prices include also a subsidiary of energy giant E.on.

So, for example, E.on Hanse increases the basic supply rate for a family budget by 6.2 percent. Already in December Matthias Kurth had called the consumer as President of the Federal Network Agency, to use their exchange facilities. That could bring a saving of several hundred euros. Environment Minister Norbert Roettgen (CDU) keeps the price increases significantly exaggerated. Even economy Minister Rainer Bruderle (FDP) urged customers to act. Who behaves passively, pay too much", says also Robert Mundt, Chief Executive Officer of FlexStrom.

Group-independent provider, FlexStrom requires significantly less than the basic utilities in many places. The majority of German households is supplied from basic provider but still, so by public utilities or energy companies. Every change of electricity provider is a sign of consumers for more competition", so Robert Mundt from independent provider FlexStrom. For the German electricity market, but also the framework conditions should be improved urgently: for example by more ways to buy electricity from abroad. Thus sinking the dependency of the big energy companies. The dominance of the energy giants RWE, Energie Baden-Wurttemberg (EnBW), E.on and Vattenfall is negative at the current prices.
