The news source observed from the study that Germany will fall short of 15 power plants to meet power demands in 2020.
This scenario is reportedly worsened by the lack of new power plants due to higher construction costs, pollution concerns and public opposition, according to Handelsblatt.
Handelsblatt noted that, the German Energy Agency considered the country’s main electricity utilities for the study and also took into consideration that the country is still moving towards a nuclear power-free future.
