Electronically controlled heater

Infinitely electronically controlled instantaneous water heater with
21 kilowatts peak power.
TW = leaving the taps
TWW = inlet control valve with
L1/L2/L3/PE = Electric Connection
1) heater
2) Pressure Switch
3) the central retaining screw
L2 of the upper clamp connection (second from left) is already
scorched and melted on the corresponding vein isolation. The device is
not reliable.
For electronic instantaneous water heaters can select the water
temperature at the device. To the mixture of cold water is not
necessary. But even if a mixing valve is used, even a thermostatically
controlled, subject to true electronically controlled water heater is
no longer the limitations of the hydraulic water heater, the heater is
specifically required for proper thermostatic mixing valves.
Benefits are increased comfort and a slightly better efficiency, which
enables energy savings of up to 20% compared to hydraulic

"Great opportunities for more solar energy"

In three months of construction, built in Brandenburg, the largest current photovoltaic plant in Germany. The company Göppinger Speidel provides the electrical systems. Andreas Wolff NWZ-conversation.

Mr. Wolff, you are involved in building the largest photovoltaic plant in Germany. Given this summer - because you can actually think seriously about the use of solar energy at our latitude?

ANDREAS WOLFF: We consider the issue of renewable energies is not as seasonal products and are committed already since the year 2004 in this area. The owners of facilities must consider the entire period under the Renewable Energy Act, EEG. Moreover, the spring was great. There are, as far as the income stream, a normal year.

You are responsible for the entire electrical equipment plant in Brandenburg. Engage only in large plants?

More solar energy in the Czech Republic

Czech President Klaus on Friday had a "positive" news for claims to the Austrian public: "We have now moved on solar energy." Czech Republic will therefore in future less need for "dangerous" energy sources have, Klaus said after a meeting with President Fischer and Lower Austria's Governor Pröll in Geras.

Fischer stressed that "confess rules" Austria and the Czech Republic to that every country has its own energy policy and decide is responsible for it, but at the same time take care of the concerns and arguments of the neighborhood. Klaus confirmed this. He added: "We believe in global warming." Therefore, future not so much energy for heating, the Czech president, who is known for his skepticism about measures to mitigate climate change.

Solar energy systems for roofs in Germany

Munich. Solar energy is a topic that has in recent years in Germany increased more and more important.



Solar energy is a topic that has in recent years in Germany increased more and more important. The decision whether to install solar panels on the roofs of busy homeowners in Germany, therefore increasing. Since solar energy system solar system but is not the same, the different types of energy are defined first donation.

In solar thermal systems passes through a liquid substance to a medium. Thus, the liquid is heated by sunlight. This type of solar heating systems is often used for water heating in homes.

In contrast, it is in thermal solar power plants to significantly larger plants that generate electricity usually in larger quantities.

In photovoltaic systems, solar energy generated DC, as a result of using an inverter in the regional electricity circuit is passed.

Pitfalls in solar energy

photovoltaic systems are not covered by homeowners insurance automatically

Bergisch Gladbach - More and more households produce their own electricity or supplement their existing heating system with a photovoltaic system on the roof. The share of photovoltaic installations grew in German households in recent years by more than 60 percent. What is the environmental aspects of a positive development may, in case of damage occasioned by the risks in property insurance for homeowners angry: Then that is when the insurance does not cover the costly photovoltaic solar panels on the roof.

"Miss many residential buildings insured to obtain information, what protection to the existing policy is an actual and know, therefore, that the energetic masterpieces are not automatically covered," shows the professional practice of Jens Grönke, Expert and Managing Director of Regudat Ltd. "In this context information then only a few homeowners insurance on their buildings to upgrade to the roof, "he added. In a smaller storm damage to the plant can get quickly to the insured a few thousand euro for repair. In addition, the entire building is underinsured, as the new acquisition of a photovoltaic solar renewable energy system increases the overall value of the building significantly. this is not recalculated and confirmations, insurance, insurance value, the causes of this increased under-insurance. The sum insured for the building is located below the currently valid insurance value and needs to be adapted.

expansion of solar energy will be accelerated

Dusseldorf - E. ON to expand its solar activities and will continue to make solar energy as the second pillar in the field of renewable energies. Within the next three years would make E. ON in his own words photovoltaic and solar thermal power plants for commercial production. The company enjoys in the photovoltaic sector already has a well equipped project pipeline of 300 MW in France and Italy. In Spain, E. ON to build two solar Abengoa Solar thermal power plants with a total capacity of 100 megawatts, the company said.

The Germans are nuclear critics

Old gate. The running times of nuclear power plants extend and promote the expansion of renewable energies - both holding EU Commissioner Günther Oettinger for "reasonable and necessary" as the "Forum Altensteig" erklärte.Eine hour to put the former Prime Minister of Baden-Wuerttemberg and current EU Commissioner of the questions Frank Krause. Had gathered along with representatives of politics and leaders from industry, trade and commerce.

Mayor Gerhard Feeß not only took over the greeting born in 1953 in Ditzingen politician, he practiced criticism "on the zigzag course of the Federal Government" in terms of energy. Old trail had assured that the terms of the nuclear power plants are not renewed, and had then made investments in the millions.

wanted to-day politics Oettinger not comment directly, but the European coverage described with power. 14 of the 27 EU countries relied on nuclear power. "But it applies to France 80 percent of its needs." Sweden had made his exit to reverse. And the Chinese would build just 25 units. This should not be disregarded in the assessment. "But in no other country in the world, the heart swings as high as in Germany."

According to the Commissioner of the energy demand increases over the next decades, "dramatic". dine The goal by 2030 about 20 percent of electricity consumption from renewable sources (wind, solar power, hydro, biomass, geothermal), Oettinger has to be realistic. At the same time will result shows that one in the foreseeable future could do without nuclear power. The final disposal of nuclear waste should not be moved abroad, "not to Siberia."

Because the wind farm in Simmersfeld the earnings, according to the operator failed to meet expectations, the question arises whether a gap between desire and reality. The 57-year-old is convinced that the plants would no longer supported so strongly. His motto is: "Wind in the north, the sun in the south." When Germany is heavily dependent on gas from the delivery of third countries. "We are thus vulnerable to blackmail?" Oettinger denies this "Russia wants to sell, to build new roads, as is the dependence of each other."

Although the Germans knew very well informed what a liter of gasoline costs, but not how much they must pay for the kilowatt hour of electricity, can not understand Oettinger. "For me the washing machine is turned on, not when the price is very high, at midnight, when I go to bed."

Finished, the hour-long interview with personal questions to the Commissioner. No, the activities in Brussels, had not originally been on his career plan, but now he feels very comfortable. After Altensteig he would like to come "because my brother is gone to St. Christopher's School, also had his parents had an apartment in masters.
