      Germany made it! Over 40% renewable electricity* in 2018, for the first time ever. After 38.2% in 2017, now 40.4%. Nuclear 13.3%, fossils 46.3% *) based on net power generation for the public grid. Thx Bruno @energy_charts for your data and charts!pic.twitter.com/yPn9U1Wnwd

      Do you know the average CO2 mix production per kWH?

      No, would be nice to add, Bruno @energy-charts! Must be decreasing slightly over the years, as the share of fossil electricity goes down.

          Not so much, no. The decision to eliminate nuclear energy has essentially resulted in replacing one low-carbon source with another. Had they kept nuclear energy at baseline, emissions would be down sharply.pic.twitter.com/15WhEzrtp1

          We should not just look at the face value that the emissions remained constant. Consider population growth and economic growth, growth of either means increase in energy consumption but with No increase in emissions I consider it a success

          I think the binary of success/failure of the Energiewende encourages people to get into their defensive crouches rather than appreciating what we can learn from it. 1) We can increase renewables in the electricity mix. 2) That is not the same as reducing fossil fuel burning.

          3) Nuclear power produces A LOT of low-carbon electricity, and if your conception of a "Green New Deal" (to borrow a phrase from a different polis) includes eliminating nuclear energy, you are going to be running in place for some time re CO2 emissions.

          Note the countries here that are below 100 grams CO2 emitted per kwh, on an annual basis, in the first chart (Germany still well over 400, time to place much more emphasis on CO2 emissions and air pollution reduction)https://www.carbonbrief.org/guest-post-ten-charts-show-how-the-world-is-progressing-on-clean-energy …

          Indeed - 'slightly' being the operative word! Running down nuclear and relying on coal/lignite to balance intermittent renwables has given German consumers the highest electricity prices in Europe whilst barely reducing CO2 emissions - not a good example for others to follow.
