Re: Bundesrat saves PV (and loses Röttgen) (4.00 / 8)
This is only a few weeks old:

Schlechtes Image: Stromanbieter bleiben unbeliebt Bad image: electricity suppliers remain unpopular
Noch beliebter als die Sonnenstrom-Branche ist nur das Handwerk, das auf einer Beliebtheitsskala von -5 bis +5 einen Wert von 3,2 erreichte. Die Solarwirtschaft schaffte 2,7 Beliebtheitspunkte. Gasversorger und Stromanbieter erhielten dagegen nur je ein 0,2 - deutlich schlechter als der Durchschnitt aller Branchen, der bei 0,7 liegt. Unterboten werden die Energieversorger nur von vier Wirtschaftszweigen: Versicherungen (-0,3) und Banken (-0,8), der Kernkraft-Industrie (-1,9) und der Mineralölwirtschaft (-2,1).Even more popular than the solar power industry is only skilled crafts which achieved popularity of 3.2 on a scale of -5 to 5. The solar industry managed to achieve a 2.7 popularity points. Gas suppliers and electricity suppliers on other hand received only 0.2 each - significantly worse than the average for all industries, which is 0.7. Energy suppliers were undercut by only four branches of the economy: insurance (-0.3) and banks (-0.8), the nuclear power industry (-1.9) and the petroleum industry (-2.1).
...Auch die steigenden Stromkosten schreiben die meisten Kunden dem Gewinnstreben der Versorger zu. Die Ökostromförderung spielt nach Ansicht der Befragten dagegen nur eine untergeordnete Rolle bei den Preissteigerungen. 72 Prozent der Befragten gehen allerdings davon aus, dass der Ausbau der Ökostromerzeugung zu steigenden Strompreisen führen wird. Das Branchen-Ranking bildet einen Teil des "Energiemonitor 2012", den der BDEW jährlich erstellt, und basiert auf einer repräsentativen Umfrage. Die Ergebnisse liegen seit März vor, wurden bislang aber nicht veröffentlicht....Most customers also ascribe the rising cost of electricity to the suppliers' pursuit of profit. The promotion of green power however plays only a minor role in the price increases in the opinion of respondents. 72 percent of respondents assume, however, that the expansion of green electricity will result in rising electricity prices. The industry ranking is part of "Energy Monitor 2012", which BDEW prepares annually, and is based on a representative survey. The results have been available since March, but have not yet been published.
