Press Release 02/2021
- Reduced coal-fired power plant fleet secures Germany’s power supply in severe winter of 2020/2021; little wind availability and hence stronger coal burn until well into the second quarter of 2021
- Coal phase-out law leads to closure of young and modern hard-coal-fired power plants
- Southern German power plant locations are very important for security of supply and hence disadvantaged in phase out scenario
- 2021 VDKi celebrates its 125th anniversary
