>And meanwhile the likes of Nordstream2 is powering ahead. While you cry about environmental impact of burning Russian natural gas (even though Nord Stream 2 physically can not increase its export to the EU by more than 10% and probably will be used to simply re-route existing supplies from middle-man countries like Poland and Ukraine), the likes of Poland generate 70% of their electricity from coal. But, hey, they don't pay to Russia so it's fine! Until we will have a viable geography-independent solution for grid-level energy storage (which ideally should be able to store several days worth of consumption), massive renewables (aprox. more than 20-30% of a total generation capacity) always will be backed by fossil plants. Well, unless of course you want for blackouts to become a common occurrence. If you indeed care about ecology and climate, then the choice between coal and natural gas should be obvious.
