Comparing CO2 Emissions: France vs. Germany Electricity Production
This graphic highlights the difference in carbon intensity between the French and German power grids. According to data from Electricity Maps dated October 14, 2026, France produced 49 grams of CO2 per kilowatt-hour of electricity, while Germany produced 300 grams per kilowatt-hour. The comparison underscores the ongoing debate regarding energy policy, specifically France's reliance on nuclear power versus Germany's transition away from nuclear energy and its impact on carbon emissions.
And? What are we supposed to do with this information that indeed burning coal is more polluting than nuclear fuel?
While Germany's decision to close the nuclear plants was disastrous, this is a false equivalence. You're basically claiming a tiger is harmless because it doesn't have venom... Nuclear does not emit CO2 during energy production. That's not the environmental problem people associa
Ich war das. Nicht nur das ich total die Rotze gemacht habe und 600mio euro VEruntreut habe - ich hab Deutschland an den Rande eines Blackouts gefĂĽhrt. FĂĽr diese Top Leistung bekomme ich dann 200.000 Euro Steuergelder ON TOP! IHR LUSCHEN!
MERKEL THE COMMUNIST RUSSIAN PUPPET banned them, yes
And they can't live without each other. If Germany had the same rate of nuclear plants as France, both would have extreme overproduction regularly, causing zero or negative prices and downpowering. France makes medium price base energy (nuclear is not cheap for long time), German
Yeah, electricity maps in October... Especially in that super dark and cold october week which is more like winter than autumn. And in summer when your nuclear power plants are shut down again because the rivers run low and hot then you import our electricity again. Nice cherry p
Your chancellor worked hard for the Russians and banned nuclear to keep them away from dirty thoughts, god forbid Germany to have nukes and that's why Putin wanted Germany clean of any nuclear tech and on the same road make them addicted to Russian oil and gas . Germany was backs
Also ist OP die Umwelt wichtig und fuer regenerative Energien, oder? ODER? Nicht? Oh ...
yeah the german dependency to fossil energy is crazy : - it increases the greenhouse effect and global warming - it contributes to finance putin's war
Life without brain.
