Germany completes nuclear phase-out, turns to coal and natural gas for energy.

Germany has shut down its last three nuclear reactors, marking the end of its nuclear energy era. The decision to exit atomic power was made after Japan's Fukushima disaster in 2011. The final wind-down was delayed from last year to this year after Moscow's invasion of Ukraine prompted Germany to halt Russian fossil fuel imports. The exit decision was popular in a country with a powerful anti-nuclear movement. Germany is now confident about gas supplies and expansion of renewables.
