## Resource

In a surprising political twist, Hannes Loth, Saxony-Anhalt’s first full-time AfD mayor, is championing wind power and battery storage—despite his party’s anti-renewables platform—driving a green energy project in his small town. While the AfD’s broader agenda threatens to reverse regional progress, Loth’s pragmatic stance has won local support. With the party surging in polls ahead of elections, experts warn that energy policy could become a battleground, as AfD voters prioritize immigration and education over climate goals. Business leaders fear the party’s fossil fuel and migration stances could hurt the economy, while Loth races to secure his wind projects before potential policy shifts.
