RE: Life Goes On
A double increase in the cost of gas can bring the entire industry to its knees. As a result, there will be an increase in prices for all goods, some factories will be forced to stop, and this will lead to an increase in unemployment and an increase in the burden on the state budget.
We experienced something similar. The company I work for wanted to stop chemical plants, but we managed to figure out how to replace natural gas with hydrogen of our own production. After this decision, the production cost decreased and we displaced almost all importers of polymers from the Ukrainian market.
This increase in gas prices has hit the most vulnerable, such as retirees, hardest. This winter they had almost no heating. It is a pity that this is happening.
Nowadays, soo many things are interconnected. Single causes usually have wide-ranging consequences. This was already made very clear to us with Corona.
The fact that your company has found this way out shows once again that it is important to look for alternatives. Usually there is a lack of motivation when everything is running normally. Your example should be a model for German companies.
It sounds a little funny, because we buy 90% of the technologies from German companies.
😂 I can imagine that... but why are German companies not able to replace natural gas with hydrogen...
Therefore I still think it could be a model... 😏
