Good thing they were thinking ahead and shut down all nuclear plants they had. Fricking unbelievable

The shutdown had nothing to do with renewables. It was done by conservatives who, in the same year they took this step, proudly proclaimed that they stopped the buildout of PV in Germany.
What difference it makes who did it? It's utterly stupid given circumstances
Yeah, shortening energy supply when you already have a supply crunch is very good way to kill the economy. The only question is if this was done by stupidity or malice.
