Germany is a global leader in renewable energy, specifically solar power. However, the country’s once-thriving solar industry is now in a declining trend. Policy changes, more competition, and falling prices have all contributed to a big drop in the industry. Solar energy supply is a significant factor in the country’s economy and environment.
Almost every single major German producer of solar systems has gone insolvent. Investors are flocking away in droves because of canceled subsidies. Additional installations are hardly taking place. The first installations are now being decommissioned, and Germany’s share of solar power has fallen below 6%….

Germany’s renewable energy sources account for 49 percent of the nation’s power consumption between January and June 2022. This is a huge growth of about 6 percent from last year. Moreover, the country aims at increasing this figure by a high percentage in the coming years.
So, what is Germany doing about renewable energy to curtail the harmful effects of carbon emissions in the country? The country aims at creating a renewable energy source from the nation’s energy power before 2040.
More than half of this renewable energy is produced from wind power plants, solar, and biomass follow. Regardless of this, the sad news is…

It’s certainly amazing to see that solar energy systems are getting more efficient as time passes. The developments made today are meant to transform their absorption capability as easily as they can get. In Germany, there is a certain development on how solar cells might be built.
Development
German scientists have been building a solar cell that has transparent ultra-thin layers. The purpose is claimed to be aimed at effectively preventing events of recombination. The potential technology is seen to have a capability of achieving efficiencies near 26 percent.
Researchers say that once the study is deemed marketable, the tech can be scaled up easily for commercial production. According to claims from experts of the Jülich Institute for Energy and Climate …

Tomorrow’s Energy, in support of all efforts to promote the use of solar power as an ideal source of renewable energy, is in the process of creating a market for clean energy. In line with the ambition to encourage more investors to join the fold, this market initiative discusses the essentials of solar growth. This includes a dialogue on capital and carbon pricing, reinforcing public information on the potential and benefits of solar power, and the plan of action for transition and full implementation in various coal regions.
In this report, National representatives, leaders, and associations like Tomorrow’s Energy are reaching out to member states so the strategies can be applied on the micro-level. This is because solar energy processing is an industry that is job …

In line with achieving carbon neutrality before 2050, the state heads of the European Union Council has decided to raise the bar and raise greenhouse gas emission reductions to 60% before 2030. This initiative is supported by that of Tomorrow’s Energy, and the approach taken states the transition from fossil fuels to solar as a source for energy.
Given that the energy consumption in Europe is steadily rising, according to a study conducted by the association, we need to turn towards renewable sources as a supply for this growing demand.
Leaders and experts discuss the best course to take in educating and helping coal-dependent states to do the transition. The most ideal approach would be to continuously educate the citizens about the sustainable benefits of adopting a …

Many things had happened within the year 2020, and one of those game-changing events is the efforts done to ease the climate emergency. Not only has this pandemic affected the economy negatively, but it has also as well challenged our established customs to adopt more sustainable strategies for our planet.
Tomorrow Energy’s annual event calls into action the most respectable innovators, visionaries, and leaders from every industry and government. However, it is in place of a physical event that the association has opted for it to be done online concerning the current COVID-19 protocol.
In this summit, a comprehensive conference and eventual discussion about how the country and its actions affect the climate had taken place. The deliberation for the best energy solutions …

Energy derived from coal and fossil fuels contributes significantly to the number of greenhouse emissions released worldwide. This has caused great harm to our planet, and yet more than a handful of countries are still utilizing coal for the production of electricity. Although this fact is unfortunate, we look at the silver lining on how many are slowly transitioning into the use of renewable energy sources.
Not only does this help the environment recuperate towards carbon neutrality, but it has also improved the job market for many workers in coal regions.
Solar energy is a top candidate amongst all the renewable energy sources because of its availability and accessibility to all. The process of fully incorporating solar power into the energy sector offers so much …

As the average temperature of the earth’s regions continues to rise by a few degrees in a span of a few years, Tomorrow’s Energy took this as a waking call for us all to take climate change more seriously for 2021.
The association’s concern lies in the common notion that this problem cannot be solved by individual efforts but by systemic and societal changes – an idea that is more prevalent among younger generations from ages under 35. With that, this talk was pushed through to remind citizens can be the catalyst to the change we need to save the planet, and it has taken a positive turn.
This event was particularly geared towards educators, social media influencers, tech representatives, and organization leaders who share the same goal but differ in approach. …

Now that all of our countries are in recovery mode, both emotionally and economically, another aspect of our survival is also quietly affected: the energy sector. The ordeal with the pandemic has put all efforts towards Climate Change mitigation and a sustainable economic system to a halt. However, some advocates won’t let that happen, which is why Tomorrow’s Energy has opened this opportunity to initiate a conversation with leaders, educators, and industry heads regarding this matter.
In the event, ideas were shared regarding the awareness that the pandemic has given us all and what most people had learned during the quarantine period. Despite the difficulty, heads of the energy industry find the silver lining in the situation. This is because the COVID 19 occurrence has …
