This is really misleading. They already have one of the largest "green" investments in the world and are still only getting pennies on the dollar back for it (Germany is not particularly sunny nor windy). They still use massive amounts of coal compared to neighbors and the coal they use is lignite (aka Brown Coal aka the worst kind). The only real change has been reducing overall electrical generation because of the shutting off of natural gas. A situation Germany is only in because of their steadfast refusal to adopt nuclear energy like their neighbors.
