Bonn Consultancy Warns of Historic German Job Losses From Combined AI and Energy Crisis

SHERIDAN, WYOMING — July 03, 2026 — Bonner Wirtschafts-Akademie (BWA), a Bonn-based personnel development and outplacement consultancy, has warned that Germany faces job losses of historic scale as an energy cost crisis and rapid AI adoption compound one another. BWA managing director Harald Müller pointed to a recent survey from the Institute of German Economy (IW), which found companies plan to cut nearly 30 percent of positions this year, calling that figure only the starting point of a larger shift. He argued the combination of rising energy costs and AI-driven automation will eliminate hundreds of thousands of jobs across both industrial and office roles, layered on top of losses already underway in the automotive sector.
