renewable energy

Renewable energy, also referred to as renewable forms of energy, is becoming increasingly important in times of global warming, climate change and digitalization. The use of renewable sources for power generation and power storage is becoming more important. Wind energy and solar energy are environmentally friendly. Solar energy can be used through photovoltaic systems or solar thermal systems. The conversion of solar energy into solar electricity or heat does not produce soot, particulate matter or CO2. Good returns are possible because of the sharp drop in system costs for photovoltaic systems. This also applies to PV systems with a low level of self-consumption. The proportion of energy generated from wind power has also risen sharply in recent years. Wind turbines are being built both onshore and offshore. Not only the supply of households or industrial parks, but also of charging stations for electric vehicles, can be realized with the help of renewable energy. Electric mobility (also known as e-mobility) gets more and more relevant. Electric cars are no longer a rarity and charging infrastructure and charging stations are constantly being developed. In the long term, the use of renewable energy will be found in all sectors and in the smart grid.
