All we know is that France has cheap electricity (nuclear) and Germany majestically fucked up by shutting down nuclear, wanting to build renewables, and in turn ended up addicted to Russian carbon drugs.
- ncmncm 4y agoThat is a favorite trope of nuke boosters, but is false. Everyone repeating it knows this: Germany was always dependent on fossil fuels. They have been adding wind turbines at a breakneck pace, getting incrementally less dependent. Fixing those ramshackle old contraptions would have cost much more per unit power out. They have already built out more wind generating capacity (averaged) than the reactors shut down produced. Germans, anyway, know this. France is not building new nukes, nor even patching up old ones, because it is extremely expensive, and not getting any cheaper. When people have to lie to try to make nukes look good, what are they really telling us?
