Moreover. I am waiting to see what the trade agreement between the UK and USA is going to be after Brexit happens the 31st of this month.
I would bet that coal and gas will be a big commodity that will be traded. Gas more than coal.
All I see for the USA is good times. Now if we can kill off a good many democrats..
Most likely gas from Russia and Trump used the deal as leverage against the Germans..and on and on..
Hope you noticed the sarcasm there.
Actually you have to go back a few more centuries as coal was fueling the Industry Revolution.
Unless China, Russia and India make a genuine effort to reduce fossil fuel consumption, the whole environmental movement is futile.
Germany is taking in wood chips from there? I know that Drax/Drak is taking them in the UK but didnt know that Germany was also..
Well, I see no problem with eliminating coal if there is adequate natural gas or nuclear replacement.
Yes I think they buy them from the big plant out in moorehead city. They are actually wood pellets not chips.
I cannot believe they are phasing out coal and nuclear. It must be some kind of head-fake. I simply refuse to believe it. In the Engineering dept., Germans are not, and have never been, stupid.
Good news is one less world economic competitor!
Someone remind fritz that it gets really cold in Germany in the winter!
What is replacing it? Cleaner Coal? Natural Gas?
Windmills, solar panels and Unicorn farts.
“No coal + no nuclear = 19th century living standards”
Think positively. At least the Muslims will feel more at home.
Hi.
“finally exiting from nuclear and coal”
Those crafty Germans must have figured something out. Otherwise Putin will be in Berlin, cheered by the people.

Their secret plan is to fire up the old ovens at Dachau, Buchenwald, Auschwitz, etc. and burn conservatives...
