It’s easier, faster and cheaper to build renewables plus a storage infrastructure to provide power during low production times than to build an infrastructure with nuclear that is able to respond quick enough to fluctuating demands.

That’s totally not what they said. Nuclear is very slow to change power output slower than demands fluctuate.

Actually, the plan was to phase out coal and nuclear while building up wind and solar and using gas as a bridge. That was 2004. Then a coalition of conservatives and social democrats took over from the coalition of social democrats and greens in 2005 and coal was back on the menu and the exit from.nuclear was postponed, over time devastating the renewable industries almost completely. 2011 with Fukushima happened, nuclear was to be exited sooner again, but nobody cared about renewables anymore under a coalition of conservatives and libertarians. Meanwhile, Merkel said something about “Wandel durch Handel” (change by trade) and made the german power supply dependent on Russia and Putin by buying too much gas there, which backfired completely in 2022 (because nobody in Europe cared in 2014) and the now again green minister of economics had to deal with it, but the nuclear exit was done by now, without having build up renewables in the meantime as planned almost 20 years before.

So no, shutting down nuclear was not the reason gas plants kept working as long as they did, conservatives (and socdems and libertarians as their junior partners) shutting down renewables are the reason.

Coal power production is now much lower than before they shut off their nuclear power plants

But it could have been even lower.

Yes, but not because of exiting nuclear.

Edit: also, gas power plants and nuclear power plants have different tasks.

Second edit: nuclear isn’t exactly clean either.

Nee. Es ist auch Teil der Verantwortung, die man als Konsument trägt, zu wissen die eigenen Grenzen sind und nicht darüber hinaus zu gehen.

Sie wollen die Vornamen der Täter doch nur, damit sie entscheiden können ob er abgeschoben werden muss oder sie einen zu kurzen Rock an hatte.

Vielleicht sollte man auch mal darüber nachdenken, ob man Grundbedürfnisse wie Dach überm Kopf zu Spekulationsobjekten und zum Teil des Kapitalmarkts machen können sollte.

Wo kein Kläger, da kein Richter.

Lieferjobs sind prekäre Beschäftigungen die vor allem von denen gemacht werden, die sich nicht so gut gegen unfaire Behandlung wehren können (weil sie einen Job brauchen und froh sind, überhaupt einen bekommen zuhaben, weil eine Sprachbarriere existiert, weil man sich den eigenen Rechten nicht so bewusst ist etc.)
