Es geht doch nicht um Gier, es geht um eine realistische Einschätzung des Marktes. Und das ist was anderes.
Gierig sind doch nur die, die den Solarzug verpasst haben, weil sie den Markt falsch eingeschätzt haben und jetzt hinterherhecheln.
Aber ich meine es ist noch lange nicht zu spät, sondern gerade wieder richtig einzusteigen oder nachzufassen.

Haha, da redest Du wohl von der übersubventionierten Atommafia ?

Bei Solarworld hat 2006 jeder Angestellte + Arbeiter im Schnitt ca. 7.000 € Prämie erhalten ... und nix mit 5 € die Stunde. Es ist nämlich schwer in einem expansiven Markt ausreichend gute Leute zu bekommen und zu halten.

...Du Leuchte - dann schalte doch die AKWs in Deutschland ab... dann gehts Licht aus... die Photovoltaik bringt nicht mal 1% des Deutschen Strombedarfs...

nachdem der gesamte wirtschaftliche Aufschwung und der gesamte Wohlstand des Landes mit Atomstrom geschaffen wurde - wurde der wirtschaftliche Untergang Deutschlands mit dem Atomausstieg besiegelt ...

... hier in Asien wird viel Geld mit dem Solarschrott verdient... seltsamerweise findet man hier Solarzellen nur in Taschenrechnern... die Chinesen sind nicht so bloed - dort sind gerade 35 Kernkraftwerke im Bau bzw. in Planung...

aber da braucht man garnicht in die Ferne schweifen - unsere Nachbarn in Frankreich sorgen gerade auch mit neuen AKWs vor - die Wissen ganz genau, dass sie in Zukunft Deutschland mitversorgen muessen, weil Deutschland nicht mehr in der Lage sein wird, sich selbst mit Energie zu versorgen....

Diese 5 Euro die Stunde waren neulich vom Spiegel in einem Hetz-Artikel (naja, zumindest in einem überkritischen) gegen die deutsche Solar-Industrie genannt worden.
Das bezog sich im wesentlichen auf die neuen Solarfabriken in Ost-Deutschland. Und es war sicher auch überspitzt dargestellt, ohne deutlich zu machen, dass es der relativ seltene Extremfall ist - heutiges Aust-Spiegel-Niveau eben.

Das Beispiel Solarworld ist andererseits wahrscheinlich eine der wenigen sehr positiven Ausnahmen...

Hey???

Wieso schreibst gerade Du hier so einen, entschuldige bitte die klaren Worte, Müll?

nachdem der gesamte wirtschaftliche Aufschwung und der gesamte Wohlstand des Landes mit Atomstrom geschaffen wurde
Die Atomkraft kam erst Anfang der 70er Jahre, da war schon ein grosser Teil des Aufschwungs und Wohlstands erreicht worden - offenbar im Wesentlichen mit Kohlestrom.

wurde der wirtschaftliche Untergang Deutschlands mit dem Atomausstieg besiegelt ...
Was sich ja auch trefflich an der aktuellen Entwicklung nach Abschaltung der ersten AKW's nachvollziehen lässt.

seltsamerweise findet man hier Solarzellen nur in Taschenrechnern...
Ach ja?
Und die grossen Projekte zur ländlichen Elektrifizierung abgelegener Dörfer in China, etliche Tausend Solar-Home-Systems, in Bangladesch, Thailand, etc. pp. übergehen wir einfach mal?

die Chinesen sind nicht so bloed - dort sind gerade 35 Kernkraftwerke im Bau bzw. in Planung...
Ja. Aber... nebenbei wird auch noch deutlich mehr an neuen Kohlekraftwerken gebaut (ca. 50.000 MW jedes Jahr neu! Das ist so etwa das 2-3-fache des AKW-Zubaus)... und die Windkraft massiv ausgebaut... die Chinesen sind tatsächlich nicht blöde. Und die setzen nicht nur auf das 1 Pferd Atomenergie, sondern nutzen alle Möglichkeiten, um ihren gewaltigen Energiehunger zu stillen. Sicher machen sie dabei auch den einen oder anderen Fehler, setzen zu wenig auf Energiesparen und Energieeffizienz, etc. pp.
Aber es ist ganz sicher nicht so, dass sie nun nur auf Atomkraft setzen würden. Und PV bzw. Solarenergie lassen sie auch nicht komplett links liegen.

unsere Nachbarn in Frankreich sorgen gerade auch mit neuen AKWs vor -
Meines Wissens ist dort nur ein neues AKW derzeit in Bau-Vorbereitung, nämlich der europäische Forschungsreaktor.

die Wissen ganz genau, dass sie in Zukunft Deutschland mitversorgen muessen
Die sind vor allem selber massiv auf der Suche nach Spitzenlaststrom, weil sie den mit ihren AKW nicht abdecken können. Da freuen die sich dann auch in den Sommermonaten (wenn die auch mal ihre AKW wegen mangelndem Kühlwasser in den Flüssen herunterfahren müssen) mal, wenn viel PV-Strom aus Deutschland kommt.
Und daneben sind auch die Franzosen momentan sehr viel stärker dabei die Windkraft (ca. 800-1.200 MW pro Jahr, deutlich mehr als aktuell neue AKW) und so ein bisschen auch die PV (Erhöhung der Tarife und Förderprogramme) auszubauen.

weil Deutschland nicht mehr in der Lage sein wird, sich selbst mit Energie zu versorgen....
Selbst der Zubau an PV in Deutschland (ca. 1.000 MW pro Jahr) dürfte bei der Stromausbeute noch höher oder zumindest auf einem ähnlichen Level wie der AKW-Zubau in Frankreich sein.

Und Du solltest nicht ausser Acht lassen, dass in Deutschland gerade eine Welle an neuen Kohle- und Gaskraftwerksbauten angelaufen ist. Also die Deutschen werden sich auch in 20, 30, 50 Jahren ohne Probleme ohne die Unterstützung von Frankreich mit Strom selbst versorgen können.

Erneuerbaren Energie gehört die Zukunft und die kommen jetzt unaufhaltsam. Wie war es doch gleich mit der Reichweite von Uran-Vorkommen... ???

jeden Tag eine kleine Nachricht aus den USA:
Der Denver International Airport wird mit einer Zwei-Megawatt-Solaranlage ausgestattet. Errichtet wird die Anlage von der WorldWater & Solar Technologies Corp., finanziert wird sie von MMA Renewable Ventures, LLC, einer Tochter der Municipal Mortgage & Equity, LLC. Wie die Unternehmen berichten, soll die Anlage im kommenden Jahr fertiggestellt werden und jährlich rund 3,5 Millionen Kilowattstunden Strom liefern. Den Solarstrom nimmt der Flughafen als Kunde ab.

Servus Joerg,

"Wieso schreibst gerade Du hier so einen, entschuldige bitte die klaren Worte, Müll?"
weil ich viele Jahre in der Solarindustrie gearbeitet habe und die Nase voll von diesen Solarlobbyisten habe ...

wieso wird PV 10-fach hoeher gefoerdert, wie zB. Windkraft ?

Photovoltaik ist absolut sinnvoll und foerderungswuerdig - aber eben nicht in dem Umfang, wie es in Deutschland praktiziert wird... haette man die PV-milliarden in Wind/Wasser/Biomasse/Solarthermie gesteckt, dann waeren wir sicherlich bezueglich alternativer Energieversorgung wesentlich weiter als heute...
Photovoltaik hat nunmal im Gegensatz zu Wind/Wasser/Wellen nicht das Potential den Grossteil der Grundversorgung abzudecken... ausserdem werden durch Photovoltaik in Deutschland eben kaum Schadstoffemissionen gemindert - wenn man CO2-neutrale AKWs abschaltet und dann Braunkohle foerdern muss, weil PV keinen Ersatz bietet - dann ist das schlichtweg falsche Energiepolitik
Dann sollte doch lieber zuerst mal in Solarthermie investiert werden - die naemlich wirklich CO2-Emissionen reduziert - Schliesslich ist ein Grossteil des Energiebedarfs zB eines Einfamilienhaus nunmal Waermeenergie... und nicht Strom !

Aber das wollen die Leute hier ja meistens nicht hoeren - weil es hier nicht um Umweltschutz geht - sondern ausschliesslich um steigende Aktienkurse...



Frankreich ist in Sachen Atomstrom weltweit Nr 2 - und wird auch in Zukunft weiter auf Atom setzen - wie viele andere Laneder auch
"Allein China plant 40 bis 50 neue Reaktoren in den nächsten zwanzig Jahren. Japan, der weltweit drittgrößte Atomenergieerzeuger nach den USA und Frankreich, will fünf neue Meiler bauen und den Anteil an der Energieversorgung von 30 auf 40 Prozent steigern. Auch Russland und die USA wollen bei dieser Entwicklung nicht zurückstehen."

"Und Du solltest nicht ausser Acht lassen, dass in Deutschland gerade eine Welle an neuen Kohle- und Gaskraftwerksbauten angelaufen ist."
na super - das ist also unser Ziel ? Kohle statt Atom ?


wir muessen doch zuerst mal von den Kraftwerken wegkommen, die fossile Resourcen verschwenden...

Kohleaustieg !


"Erneuerbaren Energie gehört die Zukunft und die kommen jetzt unaufhaltsam."
volle Zustimmung...
ich bin vollkommen Deiner Meinung, dass Photovoltaik gefoerdert werden soll aber bitte mit dem gleichen Foerderungssatz wie andere - meiner Ansicht vielversprechendere - alternative Energien ...
das Ziel muss sein von fossilen Energietraegern unabhaengig zu werden - bis wir dazu vollkommen in der Lage sind, muss und wird Atomkraft einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Energieversorgung leisten.






"Wie war es doch gleich mit der Reichweite von Uran-Vorkommen... "???
wie war das nochmal das Maerchen mit der Reichweite der Oelvorkommen ? die sollten auch schon seit 15 Jahren am Ende sein
Meinst Du die Chinesen und Japaner wuerden 50 neue AKWs bauen, wenn sie meinten, dass die Uranvorkommen nicht noch einige Jahrhunderte reichen wuerde ?

Da stimme ich Dir vollkommen zu.

Photovoltaik ist absolut sinnvoll und foerderungswuerdig - aber eben nicht in dem Umfang, wie es in Deutschland praktiziert wird...

Und da widerspreche ich Dir.
Die Förderung hat zu gewaltigen Fortschritten geführt. Die Preissenkungen für Solarstrom, die in den letzten 5 Jahren erreicht wurden, hätte man vor 15 Jahren doch kaum für möglich gehalten.
Dass man den Materialeinsatz bei Siliziumzellen soweit reduzieren kann, hätte kaum jemand erwartet - da hat auch die Siliziumknappheit das ihrige beigetragen.
Dass verschiedenste Dünnschichttechnologien kommen - und hoffentlich sich in den nächsten Jahren als zuverlässig erweisen - war auch kaum erwartet worden.

Die Förderung ist ziemlich kostenintensiv, gar keine Frage. Aber das können wir uns leisten. Und letztlich macht ein hoher Strompreis die Einsparbemühungen (wie von Dir oben auch angesprochen) interessanter. Ich weiss allerdings auch, dass das nicht direkt zu Einsparungen führt.

Die Förderung hier bei uns in Deutschland ist schon recht weitsichtig und recht kosteneffizient. Momentan ist doch das Abartige, dass z.B. in Spanien noch höhere Einspeisevergütungen bezahlt werden (also Einspeisevergütungen, die noch höhere PV-Kosten zulassen). Es ist nicht so sehr der deutsche Einspeisetarif, der momentan den Kostenlevel bestimmt. Und wenn ich dann auch noch aktuelle Meldungen sehe, dass die Spanier ihren Deckel weiter nach oben schieben (sehr begrüssenswert) und gleichzeitig an den Tarifen nichts ändern (kenne aber jetzt keine Details), dann sage ich Dir, dass das ein Problem ist.

Mein Hinweis auf die Neubauten von Kohlekraftwerken hier in Deutschland war vor allem gegen deine "Das Licht geht aus"-Polemik gerichtet. Ich wollte damit nicht sagen, dass Kohlekraftwerke nun grundsätzlich besser wären als AKW. Aber u.a. sind neue Kohlekraftwerke mit verbesserten Wirkungsgraden auch schon kleine Fortschritte in Richtung Emissionsvermeidung.

Abschliessend noch eines: Wenn die "Fördergelder", die über die Einspeisevergütung für PV geflossen sind, nicht der PV zugute gekommen wären (die von Dir gewünschte geringere Vergütung), dann hätten sie trotzdem nicht für andere Energiequellen zur Verfügung gestanden. Und die anderen Energiequellen brauchen sie auch nicht. Für Wind, Wasser und Biogas gibt es auch so ausreichende Vergütungen. Die PV-Förderung ist also zusätzlich und bringt somit zusätzliche Emissionseinsparungen.

Eine Emissionseinsparung bringt sie aber eben nicht, solage man damit AKWs abschalten will ... erst wenn man in 'zig Jahren das letzte AKW abgeschalten hat, wird man anfaengen Kohlekraftwerke abzuschalten - und erst dann faengt man damit an Emissionen zu reduzieren ...

... im Gegensatz dazu wuerden zB Geothermie- und Solarthermieprojekte sofort zu weniger Emissionen fuehren ...
