The Nuclear Power Endgame in Germany Part of the Climate Change Solutions: Frontline Perspectives from Around the Globe webinar series.
R. Andreas Kraemer, Director of Ecologic Institute, Berlin, provides his frontline perspective on Germany's nuclear power phase-out and its implications for climate policy. Germany may well be regarded as the nation where the endgame of nuclear power began. The conservative and pro-business German government proposed a law to switch off all nuclear power plants by the end of 2022. Polls indicate that 85 percent of Germans want nuclear power to be phased out within a decade. A clear technical and economic vision of a clean energy future, and a renewed determination for rational energy policies, fuel this demand. The webinar aired October 4, 2011.
