I tend to agree. However, turning them off is partially exactly getting the act together.

The very big problem is that at the same time particularly southern German states fail to support renewables and power distribution lines.

So while there was a time line. One part of the time line was missed. So everyone decided to rather count on Russian gas as an intermediary solution with the known geopolitical consequences that followed.

PS: Strange twist: There is a German company that now wants to produce fuel elements for Russian nuclear power plants...
