Germany To Build 23 Coal-fired Power Plants

Dr. Kelvin Kemm ruminates on Germany's plans to build 23 new coal burning power plants.  Turns out that wind power provided much less (almost half) of the  power it was expected to provide, and much  more fossil fuel power  is needed to keep the economy running.   Germany, which prohibits fracking and is de-commissioning its nuclear plants, has turned to coal to power itself. Germany recently  opened a huge (2200 megawatt) coal-fired plant near Cologne, to a deafening silence.  This in a country that prides itself on being green.
