“German nuclear phase out drives innovation in renewables”
Centre on Innovation and Energy Demand (CIED)
The lack of a specific phase-out policy for coal is a “missed opportunity of an accelerated decarbonisation of the German energy system,” according to a policy briefing by UK-based Centre on Innovation and Energy Demand (CIED). The paper argues that policies phasing out high-carbon practices create strong market signals to facilitate low-carbon innovations and help avoid sudden, unpredictable changes.
