Correct; On July 9, 2026, the Bundestag passed Germany's new electricity-capacity law, which subsidizes reserve/dispatchable power capacity as coal is phased out. SPD and CDU/CSU voted for it; the Greens and Die Linke voted against it. The Greens specifically argued against a long-term fossil-fuel lock-in, while Die Linke argued for renewables and batteries instead of subsidizing new fossil gas plants. The law itself is primarily about new hydrogen-ready/gas-capable reserve plants, not coal plants. Source: https://www.zeit.de/politik/deutschland/2026-07/kraftwerksge... | ||

What was untrue specifically? I'm not sure what quoting the electricity by general source over the last decades disproves. Did you read something into spwas comment he didn't actually say? | ||
