Criticism of the AfD parliamentary group on the shortage of skilled workers and the energy transition in Baden-Württemberg

According to a report by www.presseportal.de,

The AfD parliamentary group in the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg has accused EnBW human resources director Colette Rückert-Hennen of being naïve on the issue of skilled workers and claimed that the increased need for skilled workers could endanger the energy transition.

The claim that the energy transition could be jeopardized by the need for skilled workers should be taken seriously. The energy transition requires a large number of qualified specialists in various areas, such as renewable energies, electromobility and energy efficiency. If an acute shortage of skilled workers actually occurs, this could affect the implementation and success of the energy transition. Companies like EnBW and other companies active in the energy sector could have difficulty implementing their projects and achieving their goals.

In addition, the AfD parliamentary group's statement raises the question of how Germany can suffer from a shortage of skilled workers despite record immigration. This discrepancy could have implications for immigration policy and for international professionals coming to Germany to work in the energy sector.

If the AfD faction's allegations are correct and the shortage of skilled workers actually endangers the energy transition, this could lead to delays in the implementation of projects, higher costs for companies and overall slower progress in the energy industry. A precise analysis of the impact on the market and the financial sector would therefore be of great importance.
