While I think nuclear energy should stay, the debate about nuclear power was held after Fukushima and even this year they were talking about it all the time. Crucial investments for nuclear infrastructure should have been made these past years, if we had wanted to continue using nuclear energy. As it stands nuclear energy is fucked either way in Germany. Why would investors give money for new nuclear reactors? Also I remember that the problem about the new fuel rods isn't even cleared up.
