Electricity in international comparison -- Future technologies in power generation
Axel Kleidon, Harald Lesch, Russ Conser
Which technologies are currently booming in power generation? The answer can clearly be seen in the trends in global electricity generation data. Analysing this data using the theo…
Electricity instead of heat
Axel Kleidon, Harald Lesch
The energy transition is also about switching to electricity-based technologies such as heat pumps and electric mobility. They avoid heat as an intermediate step and are therefore…
Can nuclear energy contribute to the energy transition?
Axel Kleidon, Harald Lesch
In the course of the energy transition, energy generation from nuclear power - through nuclear fission and perhaps in the future through nuclear fusion - is often proposed as an al…
Droughts in Germany -- Why global climate change amplifies hydrological extremes
Axel Kleidon
The warmer temperatures of global climate change strengthen the water cycle, evaporation and precipitation increase. But the extremes of heavy rain, floods, dry periods and drought…
Wind energy potential of the German Bight
Axel Kleidon
The wind blows stronger and more reliably over the sea than over land. Thus, offshore wind energy is expected to make a major contribution to the energy transition in Germany, espe…
