Energy efficiency alone Not enough. Despite this, the solution is dreamed of by many. We avoided encroachment on nature. But it is reasonably clear that we cannot do without building more power additionally. NVE recently said today (9/21-22) on NRK that it’s about both, not one or the other.

Some politicians want Large scale electrification, significant reduction of greenhouse gases, lower electricity prices and no interference with nature. All of them at once. These politicians are standing on the sidelines.
