Only with a well balanced
energy mix that includes all types of power generation is it possible to confront climatic change and the rapidly changing global parameters of the energy market.
Even in the future, we will be unable to meet energy demands with the power of
the wind,
the water,
the sun and
biomass alone. In coming decades,
coal and gas will still play an important role in the generation of electrical power - and
nuclear power remains equally as important. We need a balanced power generation portfolio that enables us to offset the cost risks of the various energy sources against each other and ensures our greatest possible independence from imported fuels. Because, only in this way will we be able to provide the security of dependable long-term power supply at competitive prices, while simultaneously promoting the expansion of renewable energies with unfailing dedication.
