Germany Passed bill to abolish all coal-fired power plants by 2038 July 4, 10:00

In Germany, a parliament has passed a bill to abolish all coal-fired power plants by 2038. The nuclear power plant has already been abolished by 2022, and the German government plans to further promote the conversion to renewable energy.

On the 3rd, the German parliamentary house passed a bill that would phase out all coal-fired power plants by 2038.

In addition, for the region where the coal mine is supporting the economy, a bill was also passed to support the transformation of the industrial structure by 40 billion euros, or more than 4.8 trillion yen in Japanese yen. ..

At the press conference on March 3, Altmeyer, Minister of Economy and Energy, emphasized its significance as a measure against climate change by saying, "We have reached a historic turning point. We will continue to succeed in energy conversion."

In Germany, following the 2011 TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, it has already been decided to abolish all nuclear power plants by 2022, and the share of renewable energy in power consumption is 2011. From 20% of the year to 42% last year.

The German government aims to raise this ratio to 65% by 2030, and will further promote the conversion to renewable energy.
