Germany main source of energy is still, by far, coal (lignite to be precise), and it&#x27;s not going down yet. The expansion of renewable energy, which is very real, is being done at the expense of nuclear energy.<p>I wish they would be doing it the other way around: closing coal power plants before the nuclear ones. But Germany has lignite, and doesn&#x27;t have much of a nuclear industry, so economically it makes much more sense that way...<p>EDIT: typo
