The GEG has been adopted. The funding guidelines have been finalized. But will they really come into force? The latest decision by the Federal Constitutional Court has left a big question mark over the traffic light projects. In Thomas K\u00fcbler's view, the building segment of halls with heating requirements that are completely different from multi-storey buildings has still not been adequately addressed by the political decision-makers in Berlin. This is an important topic that Minister of Economic Affairs Daniela Schmitt and Thomas K\u00fcbler discuss during the company visit.<\/p>\n
National legislation and the current budget crisis are important items on the agenda, but by no means the only ones. The hall heating specialist has long been looking further ahead. How can the energy transition in Germany be successful? How can we jointly implement the hydrogen strategy in Rhineland-Palatinate and what must municipal heating planning achieve? K\u00fcbler is convinced that it will not work without cooperation between politicians and SMEs in particular. Their voices have been ignored for far too long.<\/p>\n
The entrepreneur has been involved in the transfer of knowledge to politics for a good year now.<\/p>\n
The Minister of Economic Affairs can only support this point. As a strong business location, Rhineland-Palatinate has long relied on dialog. The innovation agency, which has just been launched under the leadership of Sabine Mesletzky, aims to offer companies even better framework conditions and networking opportunities in the promotion of innovation:<\/p>\n
K\u00fcbler knows what he is talking about. His company has been developing highly efficient infrared technologies for the energy transition for almost 35 years. He knows this like no other. Hence the latest development, the FUTURA multi-energy infrared heating system, which was awarded a prize by Minister of Economic Affairs Daniela Schmitt. It transforms the great advantages of the infrared heating principle in hall buildings highly efficiently into the CO\u2082-free era.<\/p>\n
Depending on availability, the innovation can process renewable energies such as green electricity, blue or green hydrogen just as well as biogenic gases. The fact that the system can still also be operated with methane is due to the still uncertain availability and natural volatility of renewables, says K\u00fcbler. Because:<\/p>\n
In the evening, K\u00fcbler draws a positive conclusion from the discussion. \"Innovations can only be successful if the framework conditions are right. We are very grateful that the Minister is supporting us here.\" He is also looking forward to the exchange with the innovation agency and the potential that can be tapped into together for the state. And the Minister of Economic Affairs?<\/p>\n
