FYI, the last three nuke plants in Germany were set (years in the making) to shutdown by 1 January.
Lot of chatter about a lack of plan-B situations for the grid. So today, the Economics Minister (Habeck, Greens) said that only one plant would close for sure....the other two would be put on stand-by. No one said a year, or two years, or three years, for stand-by status.
The one plant to shut down? In Emsland....far NW of Germany.
Settling things? Well...the Bavarians wanted their plant to stay open (providing 25-percent roughly of Bavarian grid requirements). So I think they are satisfied.
A cost factor? Yeah, that's the one odd thing that the journalists failed to mention.
