@CLEW@mastodon.energy I think it's a weak article. It almost seems to avoid explaining what went wrong. Some facts that IMHO are cut short: - Energiewende mainly replaced nuclear with gas - Kohl presided over the stop of Germany's nuclear buildout, which until then was akin to France's Messmer plan - Solar and wind at scale had an EROI < 1 before around 2000 (Energy Return On Investment) - Greens promoted even coal over nuclear, effectively even in 2022.
