In the German electrical market, where no hydro power is present, the demand for regulating power is rising. The main reason for this is the expansion of solar and wind power, which is desirable from an environmental standpoint, but also introduces large and fast variations in production. To keep the necessary balance between production and consumption, the operation of thermal power plants is cha

Barn är en särskilt känslig grupp i samhället. Det genomförs därför återkommande nationella enkäter om deras miljörelaterade hälsa, kopplad till hem- och bostadsmiljö. Många barn tillbringar dock en betydande del av sin vakna tid i förskolan, men det har hittills inte funnits någon samlad bild över den fysiska miljön där, vare sig lokalt eller nationellt.
