There's some news and social media chatter going on in Germany today.....over two unique woes (to some people).
There is a belief that we are about to see the anti-nuke 'pace'....reverse, and the three nuke plants which were supposed to close at the end of 2022....will be given a permission slip to stay open (perhaps with three other plants which were already closed).
For the Green Party leadership....it's going to be a bitter pill to swallow, and I suspect 10-percent of the voters will step away in anger/frustration.
The length of this open deal? No one says a time in this situation, but my humble view is that a 10-year range is probably possible.
The second thing? The CDU-CSU folks are willing to discuss a speed limit for autobahns.....temporary of course. Again, no one says the amount of time for this....it might be two years.....it might be five years.
The new limit if this occurs for the autobahns? 130 kph (81 mph).
Will either of these two things change outcomes?
On the three nuke plants? They supply 6-percent of the national grid. If the other three are brought back on line? That's 12-percent.
The autobahn speed limit? I just don't buy into the idea that a majority of folks are traveling at speeds higher than 130 kph. I think it's fewer than 30-percent (myself in the group) that routinely travel higher than 130 kph.
