Not good at reading comprehension, huh? If something is expensive even though half of the costs involved are covered by subsidies the real costs are even higher which means nuclear is even less competitive if you took all the costs into account.
Funny how that story in various sources is literally the only place where the term "structural decline" appears (it is the whole page of top results for that term when searching for it), almost as if they needed to come up with a new kind of decline they could claim to have achieved specifically to talk about their numbers.
Meanwhile France, a country that gets most of its power from nuclear has had nothing but problems in the last few years.
Not good at reading comprehension, huh? Talking about costs in the face of a climate crisis is absurd. Humanity has to use all tools available to it. Meanwhile, Germany has already proven that renewables alone are insufficient, that's why coal plants are being brought back online. Also, Germany is shutting down existing nuclear plants. The discussion isn't even about building new ones here.
Funny how you talk about reading comprehension and then demonstrate that you don't understand why structural decline is important.
The same country Germany siphons power from in additions to your coal usage? 🤡
