tv   Blackout in Germany  Deutsche Welle  September 2, 2023 3:15pm-4:00pm CEST

3:15 pm
go ahead, turtles are a protected species in the us. you're up to date on the the you news of next is germany's green energy policy. heading for a black out of find out on doc films a marietta evans team from me and the entire news team in berlin. thanks for the company. the flying river is formed by a loss of full d, expiring trees, or see stars fires. no good deal and the, the invisible with the fact flows through the sky start september 20th on the w
3:16 pm
the, the power is out on the country. it's a black mountain. like old is it was a little the blackouts are serious. we hope they never happen. but they could of my boss, the income, the it's a blackout. how say you over a lot you, are you for a long time, more more people in germany fee of this, alexander holland, housing has noticed that he sells backup generations. demand has been growing, and not just since the start of the war and ukraine. we have some light. it's like under the state in the past 2 years, this has been increasing steadily. but in the past few months, it's going up shop late on the growth of more than a 100 percent. the demand is definitely the compared to the previous year. it's
3:17 pm
going up by more than 100 percent. and which the a lot of people that are worried about such horace scenarios. so is that this preparing for a complete collapse the electricity supply via the listing tops into yachts. you don't want to name a, we've got the dentist, the veterinarian and company. oh no. so a cross section of society, but it was people who are simply worried, this suffering now under the energy transition. that's what i want to be equivalent . cool. and then there are also very special custom is i want to make a secret of it. i don't even want to be ready for any eventuality. that's quite well. it's really just normal. people like us got some of them in the in calling houses. customers spend about $3000.00 euros on average for the generation. that's a lot of money for back up in case of a policy and is the less harling housing can barely keep up with the sales the how
3:18 pm
can i help you? what would you like to run it, but it was for the emergency power for the evening when that's more than what else? i'm going 2 or 3 features. that's all central. right. so you want an emergency power supply for the house along. exactly. so for when food in the store, when where's comes to worst? when the lights go out, i can still hear you say, you know, the. com. okay. i know a bit of blackout anxiety longer manage those locals and thousands of times use i'd like to be independent. i don't have confidence in the government's energy policies anymore. calling housing has calls like these all the time. yeah. as a physically. so what else do you like to know police? yes, it's really true. people are afraid that the energy transition will lead to shortages in power supply light of the policies and leading to major uncertainty. given that people want to protect themselves on the edge of henry, mostly starting off obviously. yeah. and taking this economist activist the 43 year
3:19 pm
old i t specialist is even made a jo about if his passion. he's got his own climate blog. he doesn't see blackouts as a risk in stage. it's all about climate change that he said, we want to achieve germany. time it targets, we really need to move and expand renewables right away and advance all the technologies you need. so everything is electric and we don't use electricity for today. we still ban gas oil and code if i put in making the energy transition a priority. but despite the new government things and not moving fast enough, you can big is the most is the, it's clearly in the right direction. but if i could make a wish, i'd still say everything twice as possible, twice as much with twice the motivation. which of yes, how old shaw says a completely different view points? the professor of energy distribution and high voltage technology and called post says relying on renewables alone is role the sun. for example, con, supply electricity. without interruption, he says,
3:20 pm
furnace should supply facial voltage. so p v for sure, what we control must, if he is 0, right, because it's dark during the day in winter, it's mainly dark. that means p b as in a short output of 0 percent with an a should output means energy generation by civil power plants, which is nearly always available. coal nuclear and gas find power plants above food and hydro electric sources provide a high level of assured output, wind energy, and photovoltaics by contrast, have no assured output. i can't establish a secure supply with that. there are lots of when the days i can use that, but then there are calm days and the question then is always what do i do? i can build wind and p as long as i want do, but a short output times of 0 percent to one present. as you know nothing. the scientist says it's clear when there's something known as a don't cool slow so. so no lice or wind,
3:21 pm
then supplying electricity gets problematic. it's been since these are believe that the flow of the home with the keep this las lice. but once you've got this renown, don't go flowed to. there's neither p v nor winds generation. that's always going to get and if you take away all the conventional power generation like nuclear link, 90 hard cold, and then there's nothing left for germany to supply itself with power from domestic sources. always suppose all the protocols allowed in the times when there's no sun. the wind faces the biggest threat to power generation. netflix not scare tactics, realities between 20152020 alone. there was 3 faces in which renewable energy supplied less than 20 percent of what it was supposed to. and that for more than 200 hours the time. that's more than 8
3:22 pm
days. claudia came 1st and the energy economist at the gym and is to treat the economic research says the threats is red and manageable. the have months. we've taken a really close look at the scenario. there are 2 weeks in january when that kind of come with as little solar and wind energy and you've got to prepare for that problem in energy terminology. we call those like flexibility options. the system has really high fluctuations here, and it's not analog, but digital and a very small, some very flexible, and it works the tools we need to know. a digital smash, flexible electric power system. that sounds good, but we have one already escapes. now it doesn't exist yet, we need to invest and it sets up the system quickly. so we'll always have supply securities along side. then we'll have to get to the point you could say, which is if you've decided to jump out of an airplane. and on the way down, you all start to discuss how you're going to make the power shoot him and you've
3:23 pm
got the material and ideas and on the weight down you keep telling yourselves up to now it has always been fine and everything is okay. that goes well for a while, the in the control center, the transmission system operation, i'm pre own, they try to keep the network stable. that only woods wind power generation in consumption always exactly at the same level. otherwise, in the worst case, a blackout logic. before the energy transition, it was simple, fossil fuels fired power plants always deliver the exact, the amount of energy consumed. today, wind turbines and solar modules provide energy to that makes it more complicated because sometimes there's wind and sunshine. and sometimes there is that nicholas
3:24 pm
frequency drops if renewables like wind in solar and that you have a lot for network operate and then has to bring conventional power plants online to restore the balance. but it is a gale blowing on the coast. then the break frequency control has dangerously, it's in dallas, the operation would have the wind turbine stopped. fluctuation of network frequency must be minimized. otherwise, then that would collapse it in a given the long use. what's you wouldn't be follow the energy transition. the situations could be timed back to meaning generation was oriented precisely the consumption of the vehicle. the whole thing has become the final complex involved at times since the energy transition, the network situation changes much more frequently. in the meantime, several daily interventions to guarantee network security become almost routine and sort of analyze intervention also means firing up conventional power plants. the more or more of these power produces for the shoot out portions supposed to be
3:25 pm
shut down since quite a long don't close slash and then perhaps lead to a blackout says yes, it isn't a complete. that's a complex question. that's not so easy to while. so with just a sentence of college, all bands transmission system operators isn't a guarantee and ensure security of supplying that the task of the ministry of economics within the federal network agency, although it's not up to the transmission system operate um, but of course, well point out developments and undesirable trying them become open in spanish within this way, continually speaking with the transmission of system operators and that's a conservative step. died by the transition system operate is job has always been you back up and have to have a safety level. and another off to that and said in that respect and the mindset of
3:26 pm
many people in the world network tends to be very security oriented as either but the form, a junior economics minister knows that without conventional power plants, secure energy supplies could become skids innovative. that's why why 2030 we're building additional natural gas, 5 health plans to guarantee secure supplies, even without coal fired plants. and we'll achieve that because we go to precise audio and talk to the providers on this with you. so meaning you get, find power plants would have to be built quickly. now, the number of analyses have shown that it is, in fact, between 23 and 43 gigawatts of outputs. that's dozens of new gas fired power plants that any right, who's going to build them? and what kind of gas will be used to operate the, to the head of the german central association of the energy and also industry and
3:27 pm
form. a green politician says all those problems a solvable biscuit guns, incense, even just because they're all very intensive discussions with no way. i'm sol, susan european countries, and there are talks with saudi arabia, as all the world is pretty big when it comes to this, there are many supply opens unit times. we know we need these pallets not someone to so we're working within an investment frameworks that will enable us email that mattress tons of ideas, but nothing really concrete. appropriate urgently needed investment framework. the energy transition is according to the east, the institution between 500000000000 euros and moles in st. trinity in your eyes. and that will have an impact on electricity prices. power will become increasingly expensive. the even now in germany has the highest price for electricity worldwide. while jimmy
3:28 pm
consume is pay around city to euro cents per kilowatt hour, electricity is far cheaper in other countries. the federal orders had the bundles, ratios, hole has quickly said, process may not rise. otherwise, the energy transition will post a threat to social stability in germany. the left out for them. it is because it says most defects according to law, the supply of electricity must be secure, but it was so affordable and reasonably priced. the development of costs of that puts us 1st in europe, of course, has impact on private households and small and medium sized companies. there's a whole huge cost factors that have to be, don't talk to. and it's important that society isn't of about us because they're trying to have a product overwhelmed by high electricity prices. the mid sized companies failing
3:29 pm
on hassle is located in the bought piedmont. they made the products needed to the energy transition special couple last winter bonds, power lines, and electric cars. the electricity intensive processing of the metal in the meantime has left the company facing huge costs, the anti there and costs. and i'm here share of energy costs, and the manufacturing process is very high. and the higher the energy costs rise, the more critical the share becomes these. and that's really worrying us. that's because in the end, that means the products we need to achieve, the energy transition will no longer be able to be made in europe. and especially in germany, then the wind turbines will come from asia as, as in to stabilize spending on energy, many electricity intensive companies. a working with external energy costs manages like view and for each company, bonds, electricity, and gas on the wholesale market. on behalf of mid sized enterprises. he says hi jim
3:30 pm
and electricity costs even damaged the climate via of point a who and in a game provides. and these are that to us when we no longer competitive due to high energy prices, then business shifts to asia in china. that means that, well, the leading products made here with minimal emissions, medium of being manufactured in countries with much higher emissions and much greater environmental damage one on seed, whoever own that john. but the high cost of the biggest problem. so companies by far, much worse is the power outage is happening more and more frequently high. so since it's because of the energy transition, the list is arms in for the mission. that's simple, but internally that's the stuff. my biggest concern is that the stability of the energy supply is becoming increasingly worse eyes. there are milli seconds long outages. they're not even recorded in figures, but for us it means a 3 day processing stand still and this is brian tiger. steve, you must,
3:31 pm
we have to reset all the machines again and painstakingly clean them. and before you know what our costs are in the region of 6 figures, 5 and what so comes x ending, but ice officially, germany occupies the top position in terms of the reliability of its power supply of the carpet process. it doesn't benefit from this because the outages of less than 3 minutes don't show up in the statistics at all. they didn't even energy transition is really lacking a stringent scientific plan based on physics and electrical engineering. it's become fond too much of a political and ideological playground where things are designed it politically and ideologically. as a consequence of the energy transition, power consumption in germany is going to rise clearly by 2030 electric cars and electricity intensive heat pumps, for example, will contribute. the economics ministry is aware of this.
3:32 pm
it's been the advance with the reasons protocol happen. this is true, will have additional power consumption is put the full costs, say around $50.00 or 60 percent more. then today, this additional electricity will be generated by wind turbines and solar power plants from germany. know what? we're getting everything ready now. so we can get to percent of the country surface area for wind energy uh by vent off. so additionally we'll pull out all the stops with offshore wind in gym and it's close to what is for them. and then we've got lots of solar energy to attic either. finally, there's cooperation without neighbors going. all the electricity germany needs can be produced in this way. the escape from the ones that same principle. there are many great ideas that could all be implemented in terms of your technical feasibility. i've no reservations, it can be done, but it's simply cost. it's an incredible amount of money and takes a long, long time. it's like, there's not too much time left because it's not just gymnast electricity
3:33 pm
consumption that's to become green with an if you use all the energy for industry and consume it should be produced in a fully climate for way in the near future. heavy industry consume is comic is one of the energy that you the consumes today in the form of coal, oil, gas, or gasoline, is to soon be replaced by green electricity. only about 16 percent of what's known as primary energy consumption comes from renewable sources. at the moment, nearly 84 percent of jim niece, energy demand is still consumed in the form of fossil fuels such as oil comb. oh gas. my comparison nearly $30000.00 wind turbines in germany, supply just about 4 percent of the energy that germany needs in total. and 1st of all takes only contributors about 1.5 percent to the energy supply in germany.
3:34 pm
despite the so bring figures influence soon times that diversity on hate, him good has a solution because primary energy use drop in future p man again is that same primary energy is something we waste of on solve in germany. if we look at a power plant, the steam coming out at the top is the primary energy with an internal combustion engine. i'm 75 percent of the heat goes on used about the heat zones. so when we shift will consume fall last primary energy to man. when all energy use to switch to climate friendly electricity, every state will become more efficient. he would be assessed and would fix hoffen, be skeptical at the biggest chemical complex and the world around $40000.00 people work in 2000 and buildings in factories. the company produces plastics. personalizes and chemical. pre koses for other industries. its energy use is mama
3:35 pm
3 on san gas power plants from around the clock. switching over the production here to climate neutral electricity. that's barely conceivable of this, of the demons which was gonna follow automatically. so you can't lose sight of the scale. today we use around 6 terrel what hours at the 2 weeks, often site dispatch about one percent of the countries energy consumption. if we take everything we need and run now with fossil fuels and transition that electrify it, we'd use 3 times the amount of renewable electricity here. if all the chemical plants of germany were likewise electrified, we'd have energy consumption at around $600.00. carol, what hours meaning just the chemical industry would consume as much electricity as all of germany does today. so just to electrify the chemical industry, the power consumption in germany would have to double and on top of
3:36 pm
that, all the other industrial sectors, the whole transportation sector, agriculture and teasing both need clean electricity and fox. and it's the fact that about 2 decades off to the energy transition, ok, even half of this is green, about our school renewable electricity, will only be part of the solution. we have to import renewable energy and hydrogen from other countries and distributed in europe in germany. so this will need pipelines for that says you can't deliver it with trucks. and so you have to plan and invest in hydrogen pipelines. we must start to now. so when we need the hydrogen in a few years, will also be able to transport the whole country is to be electrified, unimaginable amounts of green hydrogen will be used. it will be a whole hydrogen economy that today doesn't even exist in parts. can it be developed in just a few years that's really shopping with best buy the mindset top of course we
3:37 pm
manage it in mind because we have a different mindset who will be but we can go on planning construction projects on germany with the minds that we've had for the last 30 years and instruct, in other words, this is and still got 21. ok, or question of building a building and forth. so on the testing, the mindset is what most characterized are coming in is the time that means within to use things on the plan they're gonna build and approved about, then it will. what we've done in the task economist, the co pay doesn't see it. the test, the mindset is the key to energy transition success. he says, facing the benefits of the green energy is like a religious stokes and other estimation, the disclose the old. we're not testing a little game in the mission of their stock on the discussion of green technologies is strongly reminiscent of science fiction electorate. yes, i mean, monte hope. so we're waiting that have a certain romance. what technology, which are actually fall from the physical reality by the hydrogen strategy,
3:38 pm
conte work and because of the surface areas we need to produce so much energy, but they're also the ones we need to produce hydrogen, then we don't have these bases especially. so we'll be closed to access the space in the global south park and build wind box and photo voltage v o is done then, but then we'll have to build a hydrogen industry from the ground up. and then finally invent completely new types of logistics to get the hydrogen produced at the drum and store front of the sudden the alexander holling housing is delivering again. joe, if his customers are ready to bet that the power grids are on the verge of collapse smith, let us many believe it is possible,
3:39 pm
the veterinary and kind of how 11 wants to protect himself. which of these floating thoughts or voice. just imagine the following situation. i'm in the operating room, it's the same in the hospital during surgery. they all have an emergency generator, and so i never believed in those before. but if you suddenly find yourself in the dark during surgery, that's not an experience. you want to have this thing, of course, it's an additional bit of security for me. i just want to have it easy as my conscience that i've done everything necessary on how the b eclipse current emergency is, would several 1000 euros to the veterinary. and because just a short power outage, you could really cost him money. i can always go, i've got products that need cooling and also vaccines. and there can be any interruption. and refrigeration refrigerator can keep stuff cool for maybe 5 hours
3:40 pm
. i have as a monitor on it and it's linked to my computer via a data log. oh and if the veterinary inspectors come and say refrigeration was interrupted, i've lost a few 1000 zeros in vaccine. that can't happen. it doesn't seem proposing all in stuff like statements for often for the non 5 or 7 years ago. we sold quite a few small generators and within the kind used for hobbies, caravans campaigns and all sorts of things, all outdoor activities and the liking to the trend now is heading towards household emergency power supplies and for local because naturally they were afraid of palestine is the really been i'll stop the blinds, copy up in the air conditioner, quits of the heat goes all screwed up and stuff like that. i lost all his gym and his biggest power outage since the end of world war 2. he wants to land in 2005 at the snow took down dozens of high voltage pilots. around
3:41 pm
250000 households without power for up to 6 days. most didn't have hate eyes of the berlin district as clipping equal to full taste of a black house in february 2019. when an excavation of a 2 electric cables on a construction such suddenly over lights went house around 31000 households had no electricity for a day at the house. for you to show was the fire prevention director of the building and fire department backs in the you see research the consequences of a blackout for bullying. this one does cause issues for today's gun been ended and hoisin naturally gets particularly more critical when you've got hospitals that have emergency power supplies. and then suddenly something goes wrong, especially that's what happened at the hospital and coping x and cubic plus here at the brits, which is now after around 4 hours the emergency generators cut out then things got
3:42 pm
really stressful because the 23 intensive care of patients had to be moved on the double going see if parts. yeah. and then so what we needed to call on 23 doctors specialized in critical care. it was a particularly dicey situation that you just need to let see. oh no. luckily, the fire department was able some of these patients quickly to hospitals that still had power. but what happened and owners built in had a blackout. and for a long time period to be able to split, tied stick, house was, was flushed and cut the vin building. if you had to be the most brutal type of chaos imaginable. and believe it for a living where without power for a longer period, then you'd have to evacuate berlin. they probably just have an emergency crew here . police would monitor in the area, but it wouldn't be possible to live safely here anymore. we wouldn't be able to handle a major longer lasting power failure on our own support would have to come from outside and a lot of it. and so i say if you comment until the end taken to doesn't believe the
3:43 pm
and if you transition will close the blackout does it has to power plants the think of some fuse them. i know a few course told them it's by that we still have a lot of coal fired power online because we're always cautious on that. in general, germany is one of the most cautious countries imaginable. accounts, imagine someone coming along and saying, okay, let me just jump this one down. it well counts ok for this to the always to cancel for that all the problems. so i thought basic trunk, so we need all show and on show and so to electricity, because by compliment each other so well. offshore, of course, has the big advantage that it's so when do you see that it comes close to the face low to going class problem? in that sense? it's a stupid components having to publish time offshore wind turbines to fly around twice as much electricity as the accounts of pods on land. thousands of them should be built in the north sea and the phone 6 by 2030. the next issue with the energy transition is the pilot isn't being produced where it's needed. the real energy
3:44 pm
hungry industry is located above own, in southern germany. so new power lines must be built. lots of them. the federal net was agency estimates total of around 14000 kilometers of power line must either be thought new or expanded. otherwise the energy transition will fail the email, but i'm, in the last few years, we've been shifting from conventional generations. so gas colon to nuclear, into renewable energy is the bottom. and this further from the can see much prefer to be on the coal power plants and the ryan land and roof l. a will located the can seem is often in the future who have wind turbines and as we can see already, primarily in the north save, we need to cross long stretches to transport the pallet. and to do that, we need to expand the grid. well within that, plus thousands of pylons have to be built in 2 and thousands of columbus has
3:45 pm
a power line installed. it's a gargantuan task. instead of the promise tesla months this year, this plan to use something else. i'm not and it's not just an pre owned it's delayed building. it was a parade, has had similar troubles funny around 2000 of the 14000 kilometers. they've finished. that's caused dramatic consequences. if there's too much wind on the coast, the power line capacity frequently con, handle it the to that trips, the warning lights in the network control room and pre owned that shows there were dangerous bottlenecks in the great field business that we need to run the network at higher and higher capacity, so we're pushing it closer and closer to it. safety limits for comparison, it's like standing on a train platform and getting closer and closer to the trail and put some up like i
3:46 pm
want to be a nobody at all. once a blackout and but if they keep ignoring the physics at some point, it's going to get difficult to them. but no one can say when you have the point to simply, it's becoming more likely because there's been a clear increase in the number of network interventions with the frequency must be massively supported goods. the number of serious incidents has also clearly increased. yeah, we all hope that it never happens again, but the problem ability is very, very high that it actually could and doesn't front of my policy. and the 15 is a blackout. just as long as i'm albrecht. and brenda was born in spot cheese and president of the federal agency for technical relief, piece of preparedness x the base, the 1st of us in the next young can also as foremost fall. i see that in the coming use that will be just the type is tell
3:47 pm
a fan your old blackout that will dock and not just the straight to unable to but several gym and states or a member countries. and it won't be resolved in a few hours, instead of it will unfortunately take a few wait time. so the lights on top of our very little in modern society works with out for electricity gym and it would hardly be prepared for that. the key up as a, as sewage systems. why work anymore? because the thumping stations are electric telephones while i work up to 2 hours and they smell the pessimistic version from psychologist it is that simple world like situations would develop quickly because you wouldn't be able to get money. anyone with that cash gone by anything. you've just got to imagine those things and what they mean. there's no electricity life. we just come to a stand still stand alone
3:48 pm
. power failure would be a harsher present co cottage as well. if the worst happens, he wants to at least power his refrigerator the month. you can see it size, it doesn't seem like somebody should definitely think about this because the energy transition is now being felt intensively. even if things turn out differently, you'll definitely feel better about it today. how about fuels? can it run on rape, c o l d 's is also tight and can know as or not i'm ready to see the oil is it'd be far out to fix. probably diluted events, it will work at a penetrate, you know, to find and lack of gain. buying, emergency generations for blackouts is that treatment crosses preparation or just panic. the list agent with federal government is now calling on businesses to find the backup generators in case of possible insurance agents. this get,
3:49 pm
there are lots of people who are afraid right now. so is that on social media that are many shipping to say next winter? everybody's going to be dock and cold and i think that it's a loss of confidence because the issue has been reported to dad. so i get it pushed in the activists has less understanding for the many barriers. the energy transition still faces as after and how many of you right now we have far too few boundaries to even cover just one winter. since we do little it's happened that currently we're pretty empty handed. blanco's energy storage. enormous batteries, for example. what's are known as pump storage power plants, they can be deployed when renewables does provide enough power and help tools the a black house. but in germany isn't in such bad shape when it comes to energy storage. says energy economist, cloudy cameras that the escape there are lots of storage type. so we've got pump
3:50 pm
storage power plants that needs to be expanded. it's important that's done. so we have faster re storage facilities which are now entering the system. more and more storage facility is by to a student. they don't exist and there is a benefit. all they really energy storage facilities already. next to the shots, a pump of coal fired power plant and the louse, it's region or a few hopefuls to contain is a full factory modules. the idea is that one day is that too much power is being produced by renewables. what is known as the big back for a will store the surplus screen energy. because the battery allows, it's a germany big a storage system. it's a very significant part within the framework of stabilizing the future power supply in germany when there is no wind. and so the energy that energy security will be guaranteed electricity is supplied to deliver energy. but the biggest gym and battery storage system could barely contribute to the countries energy supply. it produces precisely 15 megawatts of outputs,
3:51 pm
the leak not 5 power planted shots upon for by comparison pump south 1600 megawatts the pump storage power plant. so then vasta to lean to and can also store energy. and there's plenty available, for example, from renewables for fluids pumped from the song, the rid of the, to the top base and it this to listen to electricity. the water flows from the upper basin via to bind some back into the solid. and that generates energy hold and 70 percent of the energy deployed to pump the water up can be re gained in this way. and pump supplies across the road isn't going to go by that there's some pump storage and how plant is a technology that's also capable of really storing large masses of energy. that's
3:52 pm
already a decisive characteristic. quite small. is that the specifics of the plants guarantee that we can switch on and off in no time at all in regards to allowing us to react fos to volatility and fluctuations in degree until 5 o'clock young to 60 year old turbines need a few minutes to get up to full output, they help very quickly to stabilize the network. for example, if renewables pro fault but the output of tunes also too, is also limited a lot to, to generate the 320 megawatts linked with the upper basin with 3000000 cubic meters . so we could theoretically supply electricity to $25000.00 households for a way would not be fulfilled. but in order to provide electricity for a waste, you and you're doing cool, salsa, hundreds of pump storage power plants like who involved to, to will be needed. there's a new around since you have them in order of gemini,
3:53 pm
it's a stop. nothing more, lloyd and endorsement germany today. we've got 40 gigawatt hours of storage capacity with these 40 gigawatts, depending on how the electricity consumption is. we could supply the country with electricity for 30 to 60 minutes, and then we noticed that if a don't close out to last week, then we're not really advancing. so what on the slowest these items v v v that we see have the development of storage capacity is running automatically to law every 2nd tv system that is built into a single family home license already has the storage attached. and that increases quickly. besides its full cost, it will be 15000000 electric costs by 2030 and i will have a big storage capacity there. and we've got the challenge that there's something in the house, so the garage and that has to be connected with the whole system. we're working on that on item via is this an acute need for electricity then use the factories of private. so electric cost and tap into the solar energy storage of single family
3:54 pm
