Amid the energy crisis in Europe, and a looming shut down of the last nuclear plants in Germany in April 2023 and declining gas input; coal has been revived as the baseload power in Germany.

In the last months of 2022, about a third of power production came from coal. In 2006, about a third instead came from nuclear plants.

Officially coal is supposed to be phased out by 2030.
