-250% CO2 emission until 350 ppm are reached again -250% CO2 emission until 350 ppm are reached again
Less CO2 emission is much too little, even zero emission is insufficient. Only a planet renovation with large-scale CO2 filtering and splitting from the atmosphere will help.


Filtering and splitting CO2 from the atmosphere Filtering and splitting CO2 from the atmosphere
Due to their enormous space and water requirements, plants are unsuitable for the necessary reduction of the CO2 content in the atmosphere. There is no room for 37 million km² of growing forest.


390 PWh/year electricity for CO2 from the atmosphere 390 PWh/year electricity for CO2 from the atmosphere
Reduce the CO2 content with Power to Carbon, generate fuels with Power to Liquid and use CO2 for indoor plant cultivation to replace large-scale agriculture.

If we filter the 33.1 Gt CO2 emission of 2019 from the atmosphere and split it into C and O, we get 9 billion tons of carbon. What to do with it?

  Cost optimization — the key to energy transition and climate protection


Paper written for the CORP.at conference March 22 to 25, 2026, in Vienna. My 2025 participation was a last-minute action, but now I have much time to prepare the paper.

Abstract
To meet the necessary cost optimization targets, we cannot hold the energy problem separate from all other problems: another major problem is housing.


Introduction
Many imaginations about our future had been created in the past with completely different parameters. Unchecked conclusions from the past endanger our future with unbearable costs.


My personal experience with a profitability transition My personal experience with a profitability transition
Birds can fly without knowing all the terms of aerodynamics. I reacted with my design change to an ongoing “profitability transition” without knowing the term at this time.


Energy transition
The long way from random electricity from sun and wind towards 24×365 electricity. Overseen profitability transitions have to be considered as major accidents.


The GEMINI principle: double usage of land
No better solar power plant, no better housing possible on the same ground is the ultimate target of the GEMINI principle.


Off-grid fast charging settlements Off-grid fast charging settlements
It can start small, somewhere in a village, with a single GEMINI house with a big PV carport and 100 kW DC charging.


Energy-intensive industry
I once developed a scale for off-grid solar possibilities depending on photovoltaic size. But now is to make a big jump upwards on this scale: running, energy-intensive industry.


Agriculture: How many square meters does a human need for his food? Agriculture: How many square meters does a human need for his food?
Mankind started as hunters and gatherers. 12,000 years ago, 500,000 m² to 2,500,000 m² per human. With the agricultural revolution, the land use was reduced by 2 magnitudes.


Conclusion
All parameters are in a constant state of change. We have to check all the parameters and predict the development for the predictable future.
