> nor power companies want that.
Important Context: Power companies were paid by the state to shut down their nuclear power plants, of course they want free money for not producing anything.
- FirmwareBurner 1y agoShutting down nukes costs money to do right, it's not money for nothing.
- preisschild 1y agoThe money for shutting down the nuclear power plant and replacing it with another would have eventually been paid anyway, the money from the govt was for missing out on the income from actual energy production.
- __m 1y agoThat was a one time payment and wouldn't stop them for reopening (accept for the dismantling process) or building new ones
- DrillShopper 1y agoThe Greens will take care of that (kind of ironic, really)
- Arnt 1y agoThe Greens are out of power and I think they're going to stay out of power for a while. The road is free for anyone who wants to invest. (We even have precedent that the state will pay if an operating license is withdrawn, which might happen if the Greens return to power.)
