The German Minister of Finance requires comprehensive stopping of natural gas power generation and extending the operation time of nuclear power plants

On July 31, local time, the German Federal Finance Minister Lindona publicly called on the Minister of Economic Minister Habeck to stop natural gas power generation to avoid the risk of the power crisis after the natural gas crisis.

"We must strive to ensure that the power crisis will not occur after the natural gas crisis." Therefore, we must stop existing natural gas power generation and use other ways to ensure stable power supply. He called on German Vice Premier and Minister of Economic and Climate Protection Robert Habeck to immediately sign the relevant laws: "Habeck has relevant legal power."

At the same time, Lindona once again stated that it supports the operating time of existing nuclear power plants: "We should not turn off the security and friendly nuclear power plant, but should continue to use them by 2024."

There are still three nuclear power plants in Germany. According to the previous plan, they should be closed before the end of December this year. After the start of the Russian and Ukraine conflict, the disputes between the parties to extend the operation time of the nuclear power plant are very fierce.
