The Gas plants are back up when needed... Priority is renewable but sometimes you need backup.... The foreign office also said that "We don't eat cats".... Why didn't you mention it?

I highly doubt, that he was aware of that specific detail.

[klausschumacher]

How can a gas powerplant use gas when it's only as a plan and not yet built?? What's going on with DW??

France seems to be handling its energy production just fine.

The US now gets 20% of our electricity from small nuclear plants...more than we get from wind and solar combined.

Jep, noticed that other wrong claim as well

[TheRealHusk]

Germany still gets over 30% of their oil from Russia, the rest imported from 30 different countries.

I wouldn’t call that independent, in fact, that sounds literally like a dependence to me.

Thanks for keeping Trumpler the clown honest. He is jealous of Deutschland and Europa .

I’m American. And my hope is that Kamala Harris defeats Trump so we can shed this era of grievance. We’ve always had problems as humans. If you were raised right you will know that the right attitude is the key to solving any problem. The world has an attitude problem currently. Stop being children and let’s work together.

Trump always has a point doesn't blab like Kamala and Biden
