And other countries in Europe will be also influenced by this policy. Now Germany is the exporter of electricity but Germany become the importer after abandoning nuclear energy and shifting to new energy.The balance of demand and supply will be breaking up.Other countries have to depend on nuclear energy and they also cover the increase of price in European area.Germany only abandon the use of nuclear energy in their country and we still have to depend on nuclear energy.
