There is with renewables which are massively being built out. So far they completely replaced nuclear while also reducing coal power production from 45% in 2013 to 24% in 2020. By law there will be no more coal power in 2038, although 2030 or earlier is a more realistic date because of rising costs.
- toomuchtodo 3y agoGermany is actually ideal for maximizing renewables because of the 12 interconnects to other electrical grids, along with their ~10GW hydro storage and ~5GW hydro. It should only take another few tens of GW to phase coal out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_Germany https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_Germany
