Understand how electricity generation changed in Germany since 1971. Develop a data-based Opinion with Low-Carbon Power & Monitor the Transition to Low Carbon.
The one-two punch of cutting ourselves off from cheap Russian fossil fuels and shutting down all nuclear generation in the same time period has made a huge difference, something like a 30% increase in just two years.
