Germany Fires Up Coal Power Plants for Winter to “Save Gas”

by Will Jones
6 October 2023 9:00 AM

The German Government on Wednesday approved putting coal power plants back online from October until the end of March 2024 to address scarce natural gas this winter and avoid shortages, Reuters reports.

Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and a drop in Russian gas imports to Germany, Berlin reactivated coal-fired power plants and extended their lifespans, with a total output of 1.9 gigawatt hours generated last winter.

The Government said it will make proposals by next summer on how to ‘offset’ the increased carbon dioxide emissions the plants will generate this winter.

I wonder when they’ll twig they still need fossil fuels every winter, not just this year.
