Peaker gas plants running on gas imported from whom, Russia? At least Germany has the biggest gas sorage capacity in Europe. https://www.ecfr.eu/article/commentary_europes_vulnerability_on_russian_gas https://www.ecfr.eu/article/commentary_europes_vulnerability... A possibly better strategy would be to produce DME using excess capacity and convert diesel vehicle engines to DME. Then export both the cars, the fuel and the tech to produce the fuel locally. Maybe even use it as input for peaker gas plants and shipping fuel. Germany has all the resources necessary to establish and lead such a market. Plus they don't need to throw away decades of investment into diesel ICE R&D.
