Energiewende<\/em>, German for \u201denergy transition.\u201d Energiewende is the energy policy launched by the German government in 2000 to change to a “green” low-carbon, nuclear-free economy.<\/p>\n

When first launched, 6.6 percent of Germany\u2019s electricity came from renewable sources such as solar and wind. In 2019, the share reached 41.1 percent. Germans paid a hefty price for the program. The average cost of electricity for German households has doubled since inception. By 2019, households had to pay 34 U.S. cents per kilowatt-hour, compared to 22 cents per in France and 13 cents in the United States.<\/p>\n

Now Russian energy is no longer available (jury is still out on who sabotaged the Nord Stream II pipeline) and winter is here. Without options to replace that energy, Germany is returning to reliable fossil fuel sources. At least 20 coal-fired power plants nationwide are being resurrected or extended past their closing dates to ensure Germany has enough energy to get through the winter. Green eurofags are losing their minds.<\/p>\n

Coal mine demolishes neighboring wind farm to boost country’s energy supply, drawing ire of climate activists<\/h3>\n

The German energy giant RWE admits the situation appears to be ‘paradoxical’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A German energy company is dismantling a wind farm to allow for an adjacent coal mine to expand its operations, officials said.<\/p>\n

The German coal mine Garzweiler, operated by energy company RWE, admits the situation appears to be “paradoxical” \u2014 sacrificing one energy source for another \u2014 but defended the decision as necessary to strengthen supplies amid the ongoing energy crisis, Oilprice.com reported.<\/p>\n

“We realize this comes across as paradoxical,” RWE spokesperson Guido Steffen said in a statement. “But that is as matters stand.”<\/p>\n

One of the wind farm\u2019s eight wind turbines was dismantled last week, and two others are expected to be taken down next year. The remaining five turbines will be dismantled by the end of 2023, said a spokesperson for the company that builds and runs the wind farm.<\/p>\n

RWE\u2019s decision to expand into the Keyenberg wind farm, which is located in North Rhine-Westphalia, has drawn the ire of climate activists.<\/p>\n

North-Rhine Westphalia\u2019s ministry for economic and energy affairs repeatedly advocated against the destruction of the wind turbines.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

France is restarting nuke power plants that were foolishly shut down. The New Green Deal house of cards is collapsing in real-time all-over Europe, an abject lesson that is being ignored by Proggies here in the States. They need reminded. Vote.
\nAs for the green eurofags, it’s in the tags.<\/p>\n
