The idea at that time was for electricity production to replace nuclear&coal with renewable & gas (as backup) for some time, until there are other ways to backup renewable. It could (!) have had the effect of CO2 emissions going dow

Sure not. The dumbest thing we did was to slow down the expansion into renewable. Similar dumb was to make us (Germany and Europe in general) depend on Russian energy (gas, nuclear fuel&technology, ...), which the Russian regime then us
