It is bad enough that Germany cannot find a solution for the ‘yellow barrels’ of the atomic 28 age, and relies on other states.

As a renewables company fighting for the energy transition from conviction, we want to see a more ambitious energy policy from our new government.

We hope that the new government will become more committed still 26 to tackling these issues, and take the liberty of raising a finger in warning: 65 percent renewable energy by 2030, that calls for clear guidelines and no new discussions as to whether another revision of the EEG is necessary!

According to information received from the Federal Association of Energy and Water Industries (BDEW), the figure was more than 36 percent in 2017. In other words, nearly 217 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity were generated from wind, solar and other renewable sources last year. The amount of onshore wind energy produced rose by 21 billion to a good 87 billion kWh. This accounts for more than 40 percent of the electricity generated from renewables, and continues to represent the main source of such energy. The figures for the number of converters erected also reflect the ad- vances made by onshore wind energy. According to the studies made by Deutsche WindGuard for the BWE and VDMA trade associations, approxi- mately 5,333 MW of new onshore wind energy capacity were installed in Germany in 2017: a record amount, which can be attributed in part to the many transition converters erected as a result of the reforms of the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG). ENERCON installed 2,004 MW in Germany in 2017. Thus ENERCON’s market share is about 38 %, or roughly comparable with that of the previous year. Worldwide, ENERCON’s installed capacity was 3,458 MW.

    A Collection of German Occasional Verse, 1701-1743, Mostly from East Frisia Susan Reed In early 2003 the British Library was able to purchase a fine collection of 421 pieces of German occasional writing, overwhelmingly verse but with a handful of prose pieces, printed between 1701 and 1743 and bound into a single large volume (shelfmark RB.23.c.522). Most are from East Frisia or relate to individuals from the region, then an independent principality;1 many have not previously been recorded. An eighteenth-century manuscript index at the front of the volume lists the poems in the thematic order in which they are bound, while at the end is a manuscript author index. (One of the poems in the collection (no. 386) is also in manuscript; all the others are printed.) The collection forms a fascinating resource for the study of occasional verse and its writers, as well as for the history and genealogy of East Frisia, and the history of printing in Northern Germany. The following description is intended as an introduction to the collection and to some of its particular points of interest, based on preliminary examination.2 The work of some forty-four different printers in fifteen different towns can be identified in the collection. Items printed in Aurich, then the capital of East Frisia, predominate, the majority being the work of the court printers Samuel Böttger and Hermann Tapper, but there are also two items (numbers 132, 133) printed in 1701 by another Aurich printer, Matthias Huber, who is not listed in either Josef Benzing’s or David Paisey’s directories of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century German printers.3 Other items in the collection which add to or amend Paisey’s list are a work printed by the Institutum Judaicum in Halle in 1737 (no.

For the last 70 years, our basic principle at PREFA has been to do something better tomorrow than we did today. And we happily give ourselves this challenge every day. For this is the principle for quality in every area: the continual re- finement of our 6,000 products, the implementation of innovative ideas, and the consideration we give to our partners, to society, and to how we use resources. In PREFArences 2016, we document twelve of the most beautiful, innovative and extraordinary projects of the past years as a résumé, which is also an outlook on, and stimulation for, future projects. This book is also a written “thank you” to all our partners for their trust in our quality products and the expertise, advisory skills and experience of our project developers.

Sager, Departmental Member (Department of History) Dr. Scott Watson, Outside Member (Department of Political Science) ABSTRACT This dissertation examines relations between Canadian soldiers and German civilians from March 1945 to April 1946. This study will show that Canadian relations with German civilians were, in part, an extension of relations with civilians in liberated countries, but were also something new altogether. At the beginning of the invasion of Germany, most Canadian soldiers did not wish to associate with Germans and followed a fraternization ban that had been put into effect.

  • Upstalsboom Upstalsboom
    Welcome to Upstalsboom Upstalsboom You are at Upstalsboom, a place of exceptional importance for East Frisia and beyond that for the entire former Frisian inhabited lands on the North Sea coast. The Upstalsboom was already celebrated as the “Altar of Freedom” over 400 years ago, and stands today as the Dove Meer symbol of the freedom of the Frisian people. You are here If you follow the avenue beginning here for about 800 metres in a northerly direction, you will arrive at the stone pyramid built in 1833, which marks the Upstalsboom. This is a reference to the original low burial mound of the early Middle Ages, around 800 AD. Along this avenuethere are twelve boards with information about the history of the Upstalsboom and Frisian Freedom. The Upstalsboom near Rahe marked on the Campsche Map of 1806 A romanticising portrayal of the Upstalsboom Assembly by Ludwig Kittel (1921) The Upstalsboom was a well-chosen burial site. It stands on the highest At the height of the Middle Ages the representatives of all the free Frisian counties met at the point of the sandy East Frisian moorlands near Rahe, created in the Upstalsboom, to negotiate treaties and laws together.
