Ironic for a country that closed their nuclear power plants to open coal ones instead
Why do people like you constantly spread lies lmao. Coal usage is dropping despite not using a tiny amount of nuclear anymore.
Funny how people are down voting my comment regardless that it is the truth.
Here for the uneducated people:

Stats say coal share is dropping after nuclear shut down yet people online claim nuclear is being replaced by coal.
Energy from coal production fed to the grid got to 33% in 2022 from 30% in 2021 according to the Federal Statistical Office of Germany (+8.6% YoY)
It's not very representative to compare just two data points. If you look at a larger time window you can see that black coal is declining and brown coal is more or less constant https://www.energie.de/et/news-detailansicht/nsctrl/detail/News/stromerzeugung-rueckblick-auf-den-energiemix-seit-1990-zeigt-die-risiken-uebergrosser-dynamik
And most of that was to compensate the lack of french export to the European grid and not because Germany shut down nuclear.
Look at 2023 data for example.
