Germany has no newly educated technical personal, has no place to store the used fuel, and a majority of the public doesn‘t want it due to the risks in this densely populated country.
We have build a lot of solar and wind though. And more is coming after years of right leaning parties blocking wind.
As far as I know it‘s cheaper to build than nuclear, isn‘t it?
According to official statistics [1], in 2022 Germany produced 33% of its electricy from coal (up from 30% coal in 2021). Of this coal, one third is brown coal. Judging from these numbers, the situation in Germany is a catastrophy from an ecological standpoint. Any german green that acted agains nuclear in Germany should feel deeply ashamed for what was achieved in the country. A green catastrophy in a country that could have been a leader! A national shame, I say.
Oh come on. Germans have developed a completely irrational fear of nuclear energy, and everything is just a result of this.
Driving cost of nuclear power plants up as much as possible was a political decision. Not finding a permanent storage was a political decision.
Not having any personell was a poltical decision. What do you expect if you shut down modern and perfectly working power plants, and stop research in nuclear power?
Alternative energy is more expensive, as you can see on your energy bill. I am paying 45€ per khW. How come electricity is so much cheaper in France?
