Germany to keep nuclear plants in reserve to ease energy crisis. europe energy
Germany will keep two of its three remaining nuclear power plants on reserve in the event they’re needed to make up for a shortfall in electricity generation this winter, reversing a long-planned shutdown of the facilities.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government is racing to secure energy supplies for Europe’s biggest economy while dealing with the worsening cost of living crisis. Scholz and his alliance partners at the weekend unveiled a third package of aid — worth 65 billion euros — to ease the burden on households and companies.
EON SE and EnBW Energie Baden-Wuerttemberg AG have said they’re open to keeping their two plants running, while RWE AG has been skeptical, citing “significant” legal and technical obstacles. Recent opinion polls suggest broad public support for postponing the nuclear shutdown. Nearly two-thirds back the move, a Forschungsgruppe Wahlen poll for public broadcaster ZDF showed last month.
