Rethinking cities
The Green parliamentary group in the German Bundestag is hosting the online conference “Rethinking Cities” on March 19, 2021. We are participating in the virtual exhibition.
A enduring civilization with respect and space for nature requires that housing, energy production and food production be combined in a space-saving way.
The building standard Climate Protection Superiority House is based on the goals of the 1000 sqm society, the electricity demand of the planetary renovation, the requirements to be able to create a high standard of living with little effort to make the society UBI compatible, that means that a UBI that is absurdly low for today's conditions is already sufficient for a good standard of living.

Impressions from the conference
|
I myself was in the workshop “city construction change”. This was limited to how great a lot of CO2 is saved with timber construction. There was not a trace of “rethinking cities”. In the chat there were statements like “Why heat so much, you can put on one more sweater” or "Low tech is better". People also got angry about the fact that more air conditioners are being used because of climate change. So much like the motto “freezing and sweating instead of technology”.
Of course, I also have something against primitive vent air conditioners. These are unhealthy and produce a bad indoor climate. That is why the “GEMINI next Generation” house is also cooled gently via the wall surfaces. Much healthier, better indoor climate and much more efficient.
I experienced ultra-conservative views that have absolutely nothing to do with the requirements of a real energy transition and effective climate protection. |

| The heat pumps have arrived
|
| 
|
|
|
On December 16, 2020 paid, on January 27 the ship arrived in the Slovenian port of Koper. On February 19, the 3 heat pumps could be picked up at a forwarding agency near Salzburg.
|
| The LiFePo4 batteries have arrived
|
| 
|
|
|
Ordered in mid-December, arrived on March 19. Low costs for electricity storage are a decisive factor for a real energy transition.
|
| Rethinking the energy transition: The price lie
|
| 
|
|
|
The demand for “more money for climate protection” is based on the price lie. But we need more motivation, credit and opportunity for a real effective energy transition.
|
| Summer / winter balancing of solar power — seasonal storage
|
| 
|
|
|
Different approaches to summer/winter balancing compared. Seven different locations, from Oslo to Cairo, are examined for seasonal balancing.
|
| Energy change — Food change — Social change
|
| 
|
|
|
Everyone is only talking about the energy transition for climate protection, but we also need a change in food production and in the social sphere. A solution for all 3 changes.
|
| Ventilation system with heat and moisture recovery
|
| 
|
|
|
On May 13, the last of the ordered units is ready for pickup at a forwarding company. The trip was nearly for nothing, because the device only barely fit through the tailgate.
|
| DIY test of thermal insulation of an alternative building material
|
| 
|
|
|
Construction wood prices are rising dramatically spring 2021 and there are supply problems. But wood prices for other applications, such as this material, are falling slightly.
|
| Would Germany be possible with 100% solar electricity?
|
| 
|
|
|
The expansion of wind energy is faltering. Is wind energy really indispensable for the energy transition or would it even work with exclusively 100% solar power?
|
| Ventilation systems with heat and moisture recovery
|
| 
|
|
|
Extremely economical and quiet, yet large power reserves to have the best indoor air quality even at a large party. Is of course part of the basic equipment.
|
| More efficiency in heating, cooling and hot water by 3 new patents
|
| 
|
|
|
How can you achieve a higher COP with an air-source heat pump than with a ground-source heat pump, and how can you drastically reduce the amount of electricity needed to heat water?
|
| Disruption at houses
|
| 
|
|
|
The market for homes is in as horrifying a state as the electric car market was in 2003: in the year Tesla was founded, the Peugeot 106 was a top electric car.
|
| A visual misunderstanding,
|
| 
|
|
|
or how a house shrank to 2/3 of its size. Because of this visual misunderstanding, the video “Disruption in Houses” was published again with improved graphics.
