Hormuz (dpo) - The Strait of Hormuz is one of the central bottlenecks of the global energy trade. Due to the Iran War, dozens of ships have been stuck for weeks, loading tons of sun rays and wind. If they don't get going soon, there could soon be blackouts in Germany.
"Germany's energy suppliers have been waiting far too long for these urgent deliveries from the Middle East," explains energy expert Holger Kurz. “We're talking about several hundred thousand tons of wind and sunshine. Of course, this is the Achilles' heel of the German economy, that we have been relying on these two energy sources in recent years, for which we are dependent on supplies from abroad."
If wind and sun from the wind mines of Saudi Arabia and the solar sources of the United Arab Emirates really run out soon, this would not only have a bad impact on the German economy, but mobility would also suffer: "E-cars could no longer be charged, trains would stand still," Kurz said. “And of course, we'd have blackouts everywhere.”

Accordingly, the German government is currently desperately trying to procure sun rays and wind from other regions of the world. Among other things, LNS and LNW terminals are being considered where liquefied sun and wind could be delivered from the USA.
