| contents | The energy transition is also about switching to electricity-based technologies such as heat pumps and electric mobility. They avoid heat as an intermediate step and are therefore much more efficient. This can significantly reduce the demand for primary energy in the future, which can then be fully covered by the expansion of renewable energies. Entropy and the maximum possible combustion temperature can be used to understand why combustion is so inefficient. |
