I know a few really great people from SA and it pains me to hear that. I feel bad cause I know many of you don’t deserve tourists staying away for those reasons…I feel that by thinking about staying away I’d punish the wrong people…It’s a double-edged sword.
I hope it’ll get better and that the alternative is a better option.

“The issue is that Germany is restarting existing coal plants to move from Russian gas.“
I can only imagine that as a bridge situation and as I said, gas is only a very small fraction of Germany’s power production anyway.

We were talking about natural gas here though which isn’t even 10% of the German electric energy production.

That’s not even true…Gas is used for the industry and mainly private heating. Coal is mainly used to produce power not heating in Germany.

What does coal for electric power have to do with (Russian) gas for heating?

Coal? You mean what we use for electricity plants? What does that have to do with Russian gas that we basically only use for heating and the industry?

Renewable energy has been growing fast and is the highest among comparable Western European countries.

Main reason is most houses aren’t fit enough to really make the trouble worth it.

What are you talking about?
“Die Steuer beträgt seit 2003 unverändert 20,50 Euro je Megawattstunde (2,05 Cent je Kilowattstunde, das sind weniger als 7 Prozent des durchschnittlichen Haushaltsstrompreises).“
Mehrwertsteuer are 16% which makes overall taxes less than 1/4.

Certainly not in Germany. They’ve barely gone up in recent years.
