Example Germany
With 233 inhabitants per km², Germany is four times more densely populated than the world average. This is how the 1,000 m² society and 100% renewable energy works.
More nature through climate protection superior houses
|
With the Project GEMINI next Generation, the idea of the house is completely redefined: Energy production, food production, negative soil sealing enable the reduction of inefficient land use.
Because of these characteristics, there are new settlement areas where only climate protection superiority houses may be built, where the soil costs only as much as arable land. These new settlement areas are designated land for energy and food.
In the simulation, 500 km² are redistributed in the land use. Forest, water and meadow (animal feed) are each assumed to be used at 5%, the rest at 100%.

An increasingly large part of the population lives in newly built land for energy and food areas until 80% are reached. Surplus solar power is used with Power to Methanol and serves to supplement the reduced solar power volume in winter with combined cycle power plants.
For the storage of methane, 24 km³ of underground gas storage are already available in Germany in 2020. This is 240 TWh of chemical energy, which can be converted into 144 TWh of electricity with combined cycle power plants. |
