Growth in german wind capacity is slowing. Soo… then the plan is to keep on with lignite and gas? Am I missing something?

      Unironically the German position right now. They’re hardcore coal fans, they’re the Appalachia of Europe.

    You gotta give them a thumbs up for their long track record of sticking to their guns on bad policy.

      Growth is slowing. That doesn’t mean total availability is not increasing, but that it’s increasing at a lesser rate.

      Do they not teach reading comprehension anymore?

        Huh, interesting how you resort to low key insult me right away - I guess they didn’t teach you any manners.

        At any rate, “look at the past X years trend” is not a useful metric when the current trend is different. In fact, a bunch of laws was just passed to accelerate the further installation of wind turbines. And moreover, what this graphic shows how the capacities have tripled in 14 years. So instead of meming let me make my point clear: I think OP is missing somthing.

    Have fun paying more for electricity and more fun with inflation, and even more fun with the ECB enslaving you further with their new restrictions on cash and “travel rule” becoming less than 1000 Euros.

    People who voted this moron in are paying for their decision. I can’t enjoy this enough! Every time I see inflation news in Germany I laugh. Good for me I left that shit hole.

    Until you vote in someone who promises you economic strength, instead of hippy objectives, you’ll get nowhere. But what do I know? I’m the guy who left you to die because I’m sick and tired of the stupidity of average Germans.

    Enjoy your fall! At least I am enjoying it.
