Must read article in Germany on the role of energy costs in industry by Austiran engineer Hans Gunter Appel.
Appel explains how the work of a human being equates to a mere 100 Watt of energy.
1 Kilowatt of energy performs the work of 10 people.
Our modern standard of living is poossble only through the use of vast amounts of energy to manufacture products, run household appliances. When the energy costs become too high, then our entire economy is doomed to collapse.
If energy costs are too high and the supply of energy irregular, and a modern industrial economy based on cheap energy cannot function, it results in mass unemployment and few taxes to pay for benefits, pensions, education.
Out of date and expensive RE technology cannot replace cheap gas and oil
Even chip companies in Germany have abandoned plans to open factories because the energy costs are so high they cancel out vast sums in subsidies they are being offered by the government.
Imports of oil and gas from the USA (Greenland?) must price in the huge extra costs of transport, extraction (especially in Greenland) and so result in high prices.
The incredible issue is the EU elite were warned the Russian war, sanctions would bckfire and destroy the EU and Germany s industrial base and demolition their own power structure.
And they still persisted.
Wrap your mind around that!
And the same elite still are persisting in demolishing their economy and in trying to keep up a disastrous war using every lie, fib and bluff they can find (Rubio, Kellogg and Trump) because a tiny clique are making money. For how long? How long until Rubio ends up on trial in Beijing or Moscow after the Western economies collapse.
Plus, the European economy is in such poor shape without enegy or commodities from Russia or Africa or a broad manufacturing base that it cannot produce the weapons needed for modern wars.
Trumps support for a delusional and dangerous Stargate AI project to produce mRNA cancer jabs in 24 hours is another very bad sign that he either does not know how to turn the US economy and public health crisis around or does not want to know and is selling favours for bribe money from the Silicon Valley elite.
An excerpt
Energie ist der Schlüssel zum Wohlstand. Der Mensch ist ein schwaches Wesen. Seine Leistung liegt bei 100 Watt. Ein Kilowatt ersetzt die Leistung von 10 Menschen. Diese Leistung steht im Mittel jedem Einwohner in Deutschland rund um die Uhr als Strom zur Verfügung. Das heißt, jeder von uns verfügt mit der Nutzung von Strom über 10 Arbeitssklaven. In den USA sind es über 20. China hat inzwischen europäische Werte erreicht. Hinzu kommt die Leistung aus Treib- und Brennstoffen.
Unseren Wohlstand können wir nur halten und vermehren durch mehr Energie, die Geräte und Maschinen antreibt und Arbeitskräfte ersetzt. Diese Energie muss bezahlbar und jederzeit verfügbar sein. Nur so können wir die sozialen Lasten, die Renten- und Pflegekosten schultern. Auch die Industrie braucht für eine wettbewerbsfähige Produktion mehr preiswerte Energien, die Maschinen mit größerer Leistung und wachsender Automatisierung antreiben.
