Crisis alarm: EEÖ warns of stepping back in the energy transition!
The umbrellable Energy Austria (EEÖ) umbrella organization expresses serious concerns about the government's current budget policy, which was outlined in the budget speech by Finance Minister Marterbauer. According to [Oekonews] (https://www2.oekonews.at/ government-soll-energende-als--swirtschaftsmotor-nuetzen-instead-temporal. The prospect of a decline in installations and thus a potential loss of jobs in this sector is particularly worrying.
The EEÖ managing director Martina Prechtl-Grundnig points out that the energy transition has considerable economic potential. Investments in renewable energies not only create added value, but also generate higher government income. In order to achieve the necessary effects, the association calls for stable conditions and long -term budgeting for funding campaigns such as the already developed initiative "out of oil and gas", which was recently exhausted due to high demand.
challenges for the energy transition
An urgent problem is the upcoming decline in the orders for installation companies after summer 2024, which could lead to personnel loss and lack of apprentices. According to [LBBW] (https://www.lbbw.de/magazin/specials/energiewende/energiepolitik/Energiei Policy/Energieung-2022GB2TV_D.HTML), necessary investments in energy efficiency and renewable energies are a challenge, since their costs often only pay after a long time. These delays hinder the energy transition and require political incentives.
BUND, countries and municipalities have already initiated various energy funding programs to support energy-efficient measures that would often not be economically viable without state help. The federal funding for efficient buildings (BEG) is mentioned as an example that helps private individuals, companies and public institutions to significantly reduce their energy requirements and CO₂ emissions.
inactivity could endanger investments
The EEÖ warns that the extension of the energy crisis contribution could let the investments in the electricity area stall to the stalls by 2030. The energy crisis contribution is considered economically destructive, since it is particularly stressed by medium -sized companies and the unequal treatment between fossil and renewable energies is criticized. Fossil companies would be less burdened, which contradicts the principle of justice.
In order to actually advance the energy transition, fair evaluation of all climate -damaging subsidies is required. An adaptation of the funding height and a modern heating law are also up for debate. In addition, an open dialogue about budget contributions from the energy industry should be initiated in order to find investment -friendly solutions.
EU support for clean energy
The European framework for promoting a transition to a society with low CO2 emissions is also becoming increasingly important. The EU has set itself the goal of growing through investments in clean energy and promoting energy efficiency and strengthening innovations. The entirety of these measures should not only contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but also improve the quality of life of the citizens and strengthen consumer rights, such as the European Union.
The EU's coordinated approach should guarantee substantial results in the fight against climate change. In addition, international cooperation and financing options are provided to support companies and regions in energy projects.
Overall, the energy transition faces numerous challenges and requires a strong commitment from politics to ensure the necessary investments and reforms that are essential for a sustainable future.
