Great debunking. I'm from Germany and I have never experienced a blackout since the early 90s.
The facts about the energy transition are true too. But also to mention is that due to strong fossil industry lobbying and some conservative and/or neo-liberal politicians it was slowed down a lot. Mostly these get their legitimation and votes with the same kind of misinformation as mentioned in the article. FUD and FLICC often work on people that are not willing to make their homework; and sadly not many are. Even academics are not immune.
