—Jesse Jenkins, Princeton University When I entered the field, commercial wind was starting to scale up and the questions were about engineering feasibility. What was the maximum share of wind that we could have in the system without blowing it up—5 percent or 20 percent or 30 percent? What about the pitfalls with energy modeling?

Thereby, we completely forego coal-based electricity and obtain our electrical energy from only renewable sources. In the future, 100% of additional purchased electricity will come from verifiable renewable sources, such as wind- and hydropower. This corresponds to about three quarters of the required electricity in the German plants.

In the US, a combination of demand reduction and displacement of coal-fired power by gas-fired generation is the lowest cost way to reduce CO 2 emissions by up to 50%. At least for the near term, that would entail facilitating energy demand reduction and displacement of some coal generation with natural gas.
