Same for Germany: people are scared to death of "nuclear apocalypse", they want all NPP shut down and now. Scared people are angry.

But they still want their energy 24/7, which VRE are unable to supply so if you just shut down NPP you get blackouts. People are angry.

Trade-off: shut down NPP and replace the missing power with fossil gas and coal, which are *perceived* as safe even if the data shows otherwise 🤷
