Gas prices - Where is gas still affordable?

Steven, before too many people read this now, I recommend you try again to read and understand the part you quoted and ONLY THEN respond to it.

Edit: too late...

Hello

Unbelievable how arrogantly the Greens are acting. Just a quick 600 euros more per year. So what! They should collect a few more bottles. That will sort it out again.
But since the Greens want to ban single-family houses anyway, we will soon be building living toilets. And the rest: the Greens will ban them.

Please read first, then turn on your brain, then post.

I believe he means the power consumption of a heat pump. Calculated over the year, that fits. So not additional costs, but less costs compared to gas. The question is when the costs for the heat pump will pay off.

The modern houses, super insulated and with heat pumps, all have the potential to be modernized into plus-energy houses. Nobody does it, though, because it doesn't pay off personally. We are also waiting for affordable photovoltaics, and the end of the photovoltaic gold rush.

And my electric car runs on coal power. The ridiculous consequence of the energy transition

What you see here is a snapshot in a decades-long transformation.
I always find this "won't work" argument hilarious. "Electric cars are nonsense because charging stations are missing. And if everyone were electric, the power grid would collapse." The same argument _now_ five minutes to midnight regarding heat pumps for this winter. It's probably too late ;-)

What we need is a brutal overcapacity of renewables. Then the poor efficiency in the power-to-gas process is no longer an issue; we'll simply burn or convert the excess electricity when renewables aren't producing.

btw. Fig leaf LNG (-terminals). Costs around 2€/kg at the pump now. One kg contains roughly 14 kWh of energy. That corresponds to 14 cents/kWh plus transmission/grid operation, additional taxes, etc.
This reality cannot be hidden from the public with dozens of relief packages, price caps, and whatever else one is currently dragging through the village.

In my opinion, there are two options: NS2 open or "emergency laws" for the production of heat pumps, renewables, abolishment of the 10H rule, and so on.
A flight forward, so to speak.

Incredible, the arrogance with which the Greens act. Just quickly 600 euros more per year. So what! They should collect a few more bottles. Then it will add up again.
But since the Greens want to ban single-family houses anyway, we will soon be building living toilets. And the rest: the Greens will ban them.

that's just about 7 tin cans at 25 cents each per day, even you should manage that (downtown will also be much cleaner)

Hello i_b_n_a_n

you have overlooked that the bottle deposit represents an income and therefore must be taxed. So, it would have to be a few bottles every day. As I said: I watch the game "How to thoroughly destroy Germany" with a tearful eye. When the Green Empire lies on the ground, I can still move to distant countries. I have already, just in case, bought a passport to a Germany-friendly country. Completely legal. This government sees the opportunity for wealthy immigration and takes it.

P.S. maybe some here should consider that first, there are people in Germany who do not own property and second, the Greens will come after you afterwards.
