VIDEO EXCERPTS: Today I would like to report about the economic downfall of Germany. Now Germany was once a really great industry nation very safe, highly productive, one of the best GDP in the world and the reason why Germany was such a successful country in the past was simply because it had the access to cheap energy sources.
Doesn't matter if it's nuclear energy, coal, natural gas or other forms of energy, electricity, it had very cheap energy. Therefore, there were companies producing goods and services and therefore citizens had the best conditions to build their wealth. So this is one of the main reasons why Germany was so successful. You can only be successful as a country if you have cheap sources of energy.
But unfortunately now that's not the case anymore. I want to give you a little bit of a summary what happened and how Germany ended up in this situation.
So in Germany they decided to phase out nuclear energy. The first decision was already happening in 2002, when the Social Democrats and the Greens passed the first nuclear phase outlaw. However, there was no final shutdown date fixed at the time. But then unfortunately, Fukushima happened and after this, the German Bundestag voted with a large cross-party majority that nuclear energy will be phased out.
And from this point onward, Germany started to shut down nuclear plants. So here you have a list of the nuclear plants that they shut down.
Germany decided to shut down core energy. The coal exit was a political decision, in January 2019 a government appointed coal commission of industry politicians, unions, and environmental groups reached an agreement in 2019 to phase out coal-fired plants by 2038. So, Germany still has a couple of coal plants, but they are starting to phase them out. [...] the plan is to take them all off the grid.
Now if you're a country with almost 90 million people, you cannot be without electricity. ... The problem is solar and wind energy is not reliable because there can be some days when it's cloudy. Today there's not a single sun ray coming through, which basically leaves you with 5% of solar energy. Also in the nighttime you cannot use solar energy. So when there's a high demand of electricity, you need some kind of alternative.
Sometimes it's not windy, especially in wintertime, when there's no wind for 3 to 6 weeks at all. And also in winter time, you need a lot of electricity because of the need for warmth...
