Germany has built out so much renewables, that France now has to build more nuke powerplants to support Germany's erratic grid.
Germany should start building nuclear themselves, instead of bailing out the French nuclear industry. $100bn can build a lot of nuclear powerplants.
- sveme 5y agoWhere do you get that from? There's a large interconnected grid that helps balance production imbalances over many countries and regions. During hot summers, when the water level in French rivers is low, Germany exports renewable energy to France (Germany, btw, exports more electricity to France than it imports). In the winter with low wind, Germany imports electricity from France. Why the hell do we have these highly polarized discussions whenever Germany, France and electricity production comes up?
