    Sweden needs a better domestic pricing model for sure. One that doesn’t punish households (who has historically voted for responsible energy policies and therfore created a great surplus) so that energy producers can have super high margins.

    Also, Germany really needs to get their shit together when it comes to fossil free energy. Not just rely on countries like France and Sweden to solve energy for them. However, German industry will probably be nuked as tariffs enter the world scene, so maybe the demand will go down.

        Net export does not matter here. What matters is that you have a stable system which does not rely on fossil fuels (which is the case for Germany). Germany has the shittiest energy system in western Europe. Destroying the country and the planet because some weed smoking fucktard had “intuitions” about nuclear.

            It does not matter because the German production, grid and export is completely dependent on coal, gas, and even cheaper imports. And there is no serious plan to get rid of that dependence. Sure, French nuclear was down so they had to import. But that is a consequence of too few reactors. One should have enough nuclear so that one have redundancy for unplanned shutdowns and maintenance. They for sure understood that back in the day. Also, the French exception is German normal. It really isn’t a fair comparison. And that’s pretty much my point.
