Munich protests show the latest renewables fight has moved into street politics
Key takeaways
- Germany remains a reference case for whether a large industrial economy can replace nuclear and coal with renewables without losing political support, affordability or system stability.
- The latest evidence shows the power-sector transition is advanced, but buildings, transport and grid integration now do more to determine the credibility of Germany's 2030 climate path.
- The 2026 network-package fight matters because it could reset how Germany balances faster renewable expansion against congestion costs, market design and regional backlash.
