originated in ideas of the german green party, reasonable and promising, it became a nightmare in the last years, because right from the beginning there were no experts involved, telling the "politicians" about the needs of energy storage and transport first. it was a dream dreamt by enthusiasts, who were unable from the start to discuss and design together with their opponents. now this thing has become a complete mess, leading to endless quarrels about high tension powerlines and raising energy prices. it is leaving gigantic off-shore windparks sitting idle and coal-based powergenerators polluting the air, while powergrids have to be protected from breaking down in times of abundance by giving energy away for free and buying energy from neighbours like austria, generated there with fossil fuels in times with low windspeed and less sunshine.
bye bye.
