New German government criticized for nuclear policy mishandling.
German Vice-Chancellor and Minister of Economy and Climate Robert Habeck and his Green Party tricked the German people to shut down all of Germany's nuclear power. In May, the investigative journalist Daniel Graeber of Germany's Cicero magazine revealed that Habeck's party friends falsified documents and deceived the public to shut down the last nuclear power plants in Germany. The shutdown was driven by ideology rather than scientific or technical assessments, ignoring expert warnings about the implications for energy security and costs. Experts within the ministries who advised against the shutdown were either ignored or their reports were altered to fit the narrative of the Green Party. Habeck and his team instead presented a narrative that nuclear power was unsafe and expensive, despite internal documents suggesting otherwise. Despite warnings from experts about potential energy shortages, particularly during winter, the decision to proceed with the shutdown was upheld, leading to reliance on older, polluting coal plants. Emails and internal communications were used to manipulate the narrative around nuclear energy, with decisions being made by party loyalists rather than technical experts. Even when faced with gas supply issues due to geopolitical tensions, the Green Party resisted practical solutions like extending nuclear operations, opting instead for less sustainable options like floating oil power plants or considering industrial shutdowns. Daniel Graeber says that 5 out of the 6 nuclear reactors can be restarted, despite the assertions by the Green Party that it would be impossible.
