    If Germany hadn’t shut down their nuclear power plants their energy mix would now be mostly coal, some nuclear and very little renewables. There was some political will to replace nuclear power with renewables, there still is not that much political will to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources. Gas-Kathi wants more gas after all and is trying to sabotage renewables again.

      I would bet that the same interest groups have made Merkel switch off nuclear power as the ones who let Gas-Kathi stick to gas. If Germany hadn’t shut down those plants those interest groups wouldn’t exist and there would be cheap energy from nuclear, solar and wind.
