Sector Coupling
In addition to the pure expansion of renewable energy sources, sector coupling, i.e. the use of green electricity to decarbonise the previously predominantly conventional sectors of heating and transport, is key to the success of the energy transition. By intelligently linking the energy sectors as well as generation and consumption, peak loads in the production of wind energy can be used for mobility and heating or cooling. This opens up new business fields and expanded sales opportunities for the wind industry. The transformation of industry towards climate-friendly production and supply chains, which is just beginning and is being driven forward by the government, is inconceivable without wind energy. Thus, the wind industry is transforming itself from a pioneer in renewable power generation to a central player in an integrated energy structure that encompasses all sectors.
