aream Press release

Germany is on a record-breaking course for wind energy: the number of new turbines is rising rapidly. In the first nine months of the current year, more energy capacity was approved than ever before from January to September. "The measures adopted by the German government to expand renewables are bearing fruit," comments Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "But this is also necessary in order to credibly achieve Germany's climate protection targets."

Long-term electricity supply contracts between companies and energy suppliers are spreading rapidly. No wonder, because these Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) not only offer cost security to the industry. As green PPAs, they are also a favorable way to protect the climate. "In addition, electricity supply contracts can be flexibly adapted to the needs of customers," explains Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "However, companies should seek advice from an experienced partner for the implementation of PPA agreements."

Storage facilities are becoming increasingly important for implementing the energy transition. "They serve to relieve the strain on the weak power lines and to maintain constant capacity," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. Storage facilities are still set up more as pilot projects, but as early as 2024, large, commercial storage facilities will be built. "These are the infrastructure for grid security and power supply, but also for new forms of electricity trading."

With the past September, another month has broken its heat record. The current year is on course to be the warmest since records began. "Just a few weeks before the next world climate conference, this is a clear sign that politicians must step up their climate protection efforts", comments Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "The last brakes on the expansion of renewable energies must be released now."
