    I did some research on that graphic. The image originates from this article: https://www.datapulse.de/en/nuclear-energy/. It has a pro nuclear power tone: „The discussion for or against nuclear energy is likely far from over even after shutting down German reactors domestically.“ This is rhetoric from the CDU, FDP or AfD, even though no energy provider agrees with this. Also the article doesn‘t mention the problem of nuclear waste disposal, which for Germany is not due to be solved until 2046.

    Digging around in Data Pulse affiliation I couldn‘t find much. May be someone else can find more on this. The CEO Nicolas Caramella has founded Data Pulse in 2023 with only prior experience in different marketing / SEO positions: https://de.linkedin.com/in/nicocaramella

      Thanks for the research. I was a bit confused because the headline of the graph didn’t mention “nuclear” and with the little renewable energy boom Germany had within the last year the line going down was weird. That they are trying to push Söder talking points makes it obvious that this was likely on purpose.

      Mark Uwe Kling started a challenge for Söder and other politicians to find someone to build a nightmare power plant without subsidies and summarized in layman’s words why they won’t be able to find someone.

      There are some good documentaries on Arte about this topic. Providing insights to ongoing building projects in France and never-ending demolition projects in Germany. What they all have in common is that they are way more expensive than planned and take centuries longer to build and later to demolition than planned. Sadly the one I watched is currently not available anymore, I just found the German version on YouTube.
