What will stick?

War is a reality in Europe again

Causing more than 100,000 casualties since Russia's invasion on 24 February.

2022 marks the sixth hottest year on record

Meaning that 9 of the 10 hottest years on record occurred in the last 10 years.

and energy prices have skyrocketed.

With natural gas trading 7x higher than early 2021.

Sounds pretty grim, huh?

But the world has also made some progress

$370bn

The US pledges $370bn to climate action over the next 10 years – 650x higher than the cost of building the Empire State Building

43.3 GW

China plans to build the world’s largest wind farm – large enough to power all of Norway

The black-naped Pheasant Pigeon, considered extinct, was spotted again after 140 years.

Turning point

The power sector’s CO2 emissions are expected to have peaked this year – and will decline sharply over the next years.

20 GWh

Switzerland opened the largest pumped storage power plant in Europe.

And we've also contributed a bit.

21 GWh

were produced by PV systems on our XENON platform this year. That's enough to power all of Aachen for 46 days.

...or all of Munich for 8 days.

+200,000

charging sessions were completed on XENON, with a total volume of more than 5 GWh – enough to circle the earth with a Fiat 500e 692 times.

+44 OEMs

XENON now supports devices from more than 44 manufacturers.

573

cows farting and eating over an entire year.

14,000t CO₂

As a result, we helped to save 14,000 tons of CO₂ this year. This is equivalent to...

843

transatlantic flights between London and New York.

91

years of running a light bulb on the German power mix.

None of this would have been possible without our team,

which has almost doubled this year to a total of 117 people from 28 different nations.

Thank you!

To our team, partners and customers – and everyone else who has followed us along this year.

To a more peaceful 2023.

Happy Holidays!

From Aachen, from Munich, from everyone at gridX.
