The answer to the question posed in the title is simple and clear: yes, we can. After all, generations of our ancestors proved this, people who lived until the second half of the nineteenth century without knowing or experiencing the benefits of electricity. A more meaningful question would be: Can we switch to such a life?
Monday’s hours-long power cuts in Portugal, Spain, southern France and even Greenland have shown that a power cut, which usually occurs unexpectedly, causes colossal chaos in people’s lives. It’s not just people accidentally trapped in an elevator between floors. It’s also train passengers and car drivers stuck in traffic jams because the traffic lights are switched off. The absence of the internet, which is very painful for anyone who wants to find out about what is actually happening and how long it will last, has hit the majority of anonymous Internetiker 🙂 right in the head, dividing them into two groups which, like the Iron Curtain of old, represent a division between those lucky enough to have electricity and the comfort it brings and those who are affected. A division that depends on geographical location.
When the longed-for power gradually came on after many hours, a witch hunt began in the media to find the causes of the gigantic blackout. The natural culprits, as always in such situations, are global warming or Putin. For the particularly inquisitive: both together.
It was reported in some more independent media that the cause of the tragedy, as in the days of the “One True Disease”, was not the climatic turbulence but all the means used in the form of photocells to generate electricity and wind turbines to kill birds. No one on TV mentioned that Spain had a 56% “clean energy” share of the country’s total electricity generation in December. In my opinion, the most plausible explanation for the cause of this blackout comes from physicist Björn Peters.
He works on weather-dependent electricity, solar and wind energy technologies and energy storage. Dr. Peters has unique expertise in the economic evaluation of investments in energy markets. With countless lectures and economic publications on the gaps in the current energy transition policy, Dr. Peters has developed a political strategy of “ecological realism” that can enable an environmentally friendly supply of raw materials, energy and food in Germany.

Wind and solar power is technically and economically unsustainable, as the blackout in Spain on April 28, 2025 shows. However, wind farms in particular cause far more and, above all, more long-term damage than any other energy source in use. Quote from today’s article on tkp.at Wind turbines damage the environment, people, animals and plants more than any other energy source. Source.
