GSI has been following Germany's energy policy, so it comes as no surprise that Germany is changing course and moving toward nuclear energy. From Reuters and MSN: "Over the past two decades Germany’s absolute demand for electricity increased under 5 percent. Thus, it is unsurprising that a doubling of the capital asset to supply marginal demand increase resulted in a nearly tripling of the average cost of electricity delivered – and last year wind and solar combined in Germany supplied nearly half of the grid-delivered kilowatt-hours. It has been successful in the sense of increasing non-combustion electricity supply, at a very high cost, but largely unsuccessful in significantly decarbonizing Germany." (fb)

The NJ BPU boasts about declining emissions, but fails to mention the direct correlation to the loss of manufacturing jobs in New Jersey. GSI has made a point to show the two are linked. (fb)
