If Germany had kept all its nukes running in the past 20 years, it would be 100% coal-free RIGHT NOW. It would have saved literally MILLIONS OF LIVES. There is absolutely no possible excuse for this.
Germany isn't all Europe. Also, at it's highest nuclear was 22.4 GW, at its lowest coal was 37,9 GW. So, your second point, about being 100% coal-free if nuclear had been kept, is also not correct.
Nuclear plants can run at nearly 100% capacity all the time, while burning more coal gets more expensive. You can't simply compare raw theoretical power. Else Germany would already be 100% on renewables.
You're looking for excuses. Nuclear power killed precisely zero person in Europe in the past 20 years (and exactly one in the whole world). Coal power killed at the very least hundreds of thousands in the same time. Period. Beat around the bush as much as you want, there is no possible escape from the facts.
From your source: in 2022, 4.1GW of nuclear power provided 34.7 TWh (theoretical maximum : 35.9 TWh, load over 90%), while 37.9GW of coal provided 183 TWh (less than 60% load : burning coal is expensive).
In 2002, still according to your own source, nuclear power plants provided about 180 TWh. So I stand by my affirmation: with continued 2002/2003 nuclear capacity, Germany would be virtually coal-free right now. Had they spent the money spent on buying coal on building some more wind turbines, it would definitely be a done thing.
Estimates are less than 5000 deaths per year in Germany. Quite a bit off.
