ā€œCoalition takes foot off the gas pedalā€

SWR

The Paris Climate Agreement clearly implies speeding up the Energiewende, but the Renewable Āé¶¹ĪŽĀė°ę Act reform will have the opposite effect, writes Werner Eckert in a commentary for public broadcaster SWR. Instead of trying to solve the problems associated with the Energiewende, the reform is used as a pretext to paralyse the energy transition and climate protection, according to Eckert. ā€œThis law has a fundamental flaw, and all the hard-fought little compromises don’t help at all. There simply isn’t enough determination to finish off the old energies.ā€
