The coalition government of Germany said it agreed to close all nuclear plants by 2022. The announcement was made by Environment Minister, Norbert Rotgken after a meeting of the ruling party that lasted until
early morning hours Monday.
This followed the creation of a commission from Angela Merkel to investigate this issue and then the disaster at the Fukushima nuclear power plant.
The German Environment Minister said that seven old reactors and the nuclear plant will not reopen Krouemel. Even other six will be disabled by 2021 and another three by 2022.
The nuclear industry has reacted whereas an early closure of nuclear plants will have serious repercussions for industry in Germany.
With the implementation of this decision, Germany will be the first country to interrupt the operation of nuclear power stations on its territory.
