4 NYPSC supports nuclear New York can look to another leader in renewable power Germany for a lesson in the unintended consequences of losing zero-emissions attributes from all its nuclear plants. Germany s abrupt closure of all (sic) its nuclear plants resulted in a large increase in the use of coal, causing total carbon emissions to rise despite an aggressive increase in solar generation.

15 Obstacles to coal phaseout - Hard coal subsidies expire next year - Lignite cannot be exported (power can) - Focus now on transitioning lignite communities (social aspects) - Greens want it by 2030, probable before 2050 Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies e.v. Germany s Energiewende 15
16 Why a nuclear, but no coal phaseout? - Coal grew gradually, big nuclear appeared suddenly - Nuclear is big biz, coal can be municipal - Risks are different: like planes and cars - Nuclear never delivered France: 170 reactors planned, got 58 Germany: 45 reactors planned, got 19 Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies e.v.
