Energiewende goals backed by 82 percent of Germans
YouGov / Federation of German Consumer Organisations (vzbv)
An online survey by YouGov found that 82 percent of Germans support central goals of the energy transition - to phase out nuclear power and switch to a renewable energy supply in the long term. Commissioned by Federation of German Consumer Organisations (vzbv), the survey found that 61 percent of respondents supported the idea of switching from the current consumption-based levy to tax-based financing of some of the costs involved in the energy transition, YouGov says.
