Germany and the EU have made their way towards climate neutrality. It is important to always reconcile three equally important goals, namely climate compatibility, affordability and the availability of energy. In addition to achieving the climate targets, it is particularly important for Germany as an industrial location that companies remain competitive. This is the only way to avoid production relocations.
Ultimately, politics, business and society will only be able to tackle the once-in-a-century task of climate change together. At the same time, the relevant legislation must contain both ambitious and realistic specifications and ensure plannability.
