Protecting nature and the environment is an ever-present topic in politics and the media – as well as in our neighbourhoods! In our blog post, we want to tell you about the nature rangers in the Sauerland, who are committed to education and nature conservation and as a result, have even leased a hydroelectric power plant.

In Germany, the focus is on six floating terminals – in addition to long-term plans for three fixed LNG terminals. But what about the LNG situation across Europe? We will give you a brief overview in our blog post.

Overloading can occur in the electricity grid if the feed-in power from renewable energies is higher than the forecasted amount. Redispatching enables the grid operator to regulate the feed-in power of power plants and in turn ensure grid stability. So far, the redispatch measures only cover large plants, which means they do not cover heat pumps, electric cars and home battery storage. However, there is also the potential to use them for the benefit of the grid, but this requires a new process: Redispatch 3.0.

We want to use this blog post, which is part of a ‘check-in’ series that we will post every three months, to give you an overview of how Germany is handling the energy crisis and what exciting changes there have been around the energy industry.

At the Stadtwerke Impact Day, experts from the energy sector discussed the latest challenges and solutions for an emissions-free future. adesso presented the innovative research project VideKIS and sat down with experts to talk about new distribution models and regional value creation. At the event, it became clear that time is running out. We need to take action now and work together to move the energy transition forward

In 2023, the energy sector is once again facing significant changes. The German energy transition is pursuing the ambitious goal of increasing its share of electricity from renewable energies to at least 80 per cent by 2030. The German Renewable Energy Sources Act 2023 (Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz, EEG 2023) plays a decisive role in the implementation of this plan. And the advancing digitalisation in this area is also leading to changes in market communications. In this blog post, both aspects will be examined in greater detail.

The German federal government is investing heavily in the development of its own import infrastructure for liquefied natural gas (LNG). The focus of this infrastructure is on floating terminals, the first of which was inaugurated in December 2022. In our blog post, we will give you a brief overview of the current plans to build LNG terminals.

Whereas we are motivated to save energy at home due to rising energy prices and an impending hole in our wallets, things often look different in the office: personal account balances do not suffer and so people sometimes leave a light or the heating on. One possible incentive in this regard is gamification – that is, the introduction of playful elements. In our blog post, you will learn exactly what this looks like and what potential savings gamification entails.

Business intelligence (BI) maturity models are used to find out how far along a company is in terms of digitalisation and data use. In our blog post, we will explain how maturity models help with classification, whether the Interaction Room is an alternative way to apply them and, if it is, whether it can be used as a basis to successfully improve BI in the holistic consultancy process.
