Something to keep in mind: No one has done anything like this at such a scale yet and Germany has formidable resources, not just a lot of money but also a big and capable engineering base. Perhaps it's going to go like some predict and innovation isn't going to be able to solve the issues along the way and everything will effectively run on overpriced gas and coal, but it might as well become a big success story.

Besides, it's really nice to see Germany do something visionary and daring once in a long while. The Merkel governments have been dire in this regard.
