Quick Glance: German Exit from Nuclear Energy: Ideology Over Pragmatism
- During an energy crisis, green ministries in Germany pushed through the nuclear energy phaseout, disregarding warnings and prioritizing ideological goals over energy security.
- Internal communications reveal that high-ranking green officials ignored and twisted facts to advance the nuclear phaseout, even if it raised safety concerns.
- The origins of the energy transition were not primarily focused on climate change but aimed to eliminate nuclear energy and transition to renewables and coal.
- The decommissioned nuclear power plants now serve as monuments to a green misstep that led Germany into an energy policy tragedy, potentially hindering the construction of new nuclear power plants.
