Nuclear Exit Is Expensive Adventure for Germany

US-based energy expert Michael Shellenberger has calculated that, had Germany in the past ten years invested $580 billion in nuclear energy instead of renewables, it would already be getting 100 percent of its energy from clean sources. Instead, the money has flown into “renewables” projects like solar and wind, which so far produce less than 50 percent of Germany’s “clean” energy. By comparison, France produces 93 percent of its electricity from clean energy sources, with about 70 percent generated from nuclear power, at only half the cost of electricity.
