Original Note:
The decision to phase out nuclear power in Germany was made in 2011 under Chancellor Merkel's government, not by Robert Habeck. Habeck oversaw the final stage of this pre-existing plan. While coal use initially increased, it dropped to its lowest level in decades by 2023. https://www.base.bund.de/EN/ns/nuclear-phase-out/nuclear-phase-out_node.html https://www.cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/history-behind-germanys-nuclear-phase-out https://www.cleanenergywire.org/news/germanys-coal-power-production-drops-lowest-level-60-years-2023
