Climate contracts: Support for local companies on the way to sustainability

Climate contracts: Support for local companies on the way to sustainability
A storm of emotions brews together in the industrial world! On Tuesday, Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck (Bündnis 90/The Greens) handed over the long -awaited climate contracts to companies. This support promises the big coup: a more climate -friendly production process!
BDI President Siegfried Russwurm does not leave time and praises the initiative. In the RBB24 Inforadio he raves: "The transformation towards climate neutrality costs us all money. It is not for nothing." A passionate appeal to face global competition without losing your own industrial basis. But there is a big difference between praise and criticism!
The complexity album
But the BDI President raises the alarm! The procedures and processes are a real jungle of complexity. "We once again managed to make it incredibly complicated," said Russwurm. There are questions everywhere that many companies do not know. A classic example are the glassworks, which currently run their operation with gas. "The question is: how high is my electricity costs in five years?" He demands clarity.
The view of the future is dark: "You can also look at the starry sky." In search of answers, new networks have to be built and probably numerous new power plants are being built - all costs that will affect the electricity price directly. It's a race against time!
Who actually benefits?
In the middle of these challenges, Russwurm emphasizes that the funding should benefit from particularly small companies. While large companies have to find other ways to survive economically, uncertainty in electricity prices remains an urgent topic. The interview promises to be a look behind the scenes of German industry! Who wants to miss that?The questions remain, while the way to climate neutrality appears as a narrow line between hope and complications. Will the promised funding actually be enough? Or do companies get between the millstones of complexity? Time will show it!
