It makes sense in a cynical capitalistic way.

Energy company builds green energy farms to milk govt credits/funding and getting good PR to cover their "dirtier" energy sources.

Govt credit period eventually expired, and price of coal exploded so company decides to exploit some of the many coal mines they were sitting on.

Not sure why other commentators run off-topic about something like this when it comes to Germany.

That's all caused by bad politics, not by capitalism.

Politics in Germany is heavily sentiment driven and shorter term populous focused. So you are effectively blaming the public.

Besides these decisions were mostly driven by the company seeking profits not politics.

So you are wrong.

Yes, politics and people, those two are interlinked in a democracy. Blaming capitalism is a convenient scapegoat, since this shifts the blame from both politicians and voters.
