    Brandenburg, Berlin and Saxony have spoken out against the construction of the first nuclear power plant in Poland. This emerges from a statement by the Brandenburg Ministry of Health on Monday.

    Accordingly, there is a consensus that against the background of the nuclear accidents in Chernobyl and Fukushima “plans for the further use of nuclear energy in the interest of the population and the environment of all Baltic Sea countries should be abandoned.” In addition, there are concerns, among other things, about compliance with international safety standards.

    In 2015, Poland started what is known as an environmental compatibility procedure for site selection, construction and operation of the first nuclear power plant and is now continuing it. The country plans to build a nuclear power plant in the Pomeranian Voivodeship, some 250 km from the German border. According to the current plans, the Zarnowiec location should be considered [uvp-verbund.de].

    In Germany, the Ministry for the Environment in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is in charge of the participation process.

  2. Poland will for sure ignore what Germany has to say about that topic, let alone German federal states. But perhaps they’re smart enough to look to France’s problems to keep such an expensive energy running.

  3. I really like to know how many people in Germany’s neighbours countries died because of German coal power plants compare to the number of Germans that died because of European nuclear power plants… **including** Tchernobyl.

  4. As someone living in Poland, I say fuck you. Whatever it takes to get people to stop burning coal, wood or whatever else, I’m for it.

  5. If they are against the use of nuclear energy in it is not in their interest, France especially and other countries whose produced energy mix includes nuclear energy and exports to Germany to stop. I want to see if it is possible to steam punk really like it is in the movies and games 😀

  6. Maybe the people in this thread should understand that everybody just builds their reactors as clooooose as possible to the German border so if anything fucks up, they can ask Germany for help to clean it up. Dirty business by France, Poland and Czechia

  7. I am not sure why a few federal countries believe they have something to say about the energy policies of other countries lol

  8. Germany further clowns itself in energy policy lmao. Not only did they destroy their NPPs, they chose to rely on Russia of all nations… Hopefully now they’ll reverse those mistakes

  9. You know the German bashing has reached a new level of brain-dead when people here start to discuss how those evil Germans kill Poles by burning coal, when Poland actually does nothing but burning coal in massive amounts.

  10. They are not the only ones. As far as I know, Italy and Austria would also like to dictate the energy policies of their neighbors.

  11. How about Germany stop projecting its obnoxious anti-science on nuclear on other countries? You’ve made your bed, no lie in it but don’t drag others into it.

  12. “Polish coal bad, German coal gut. You stop coal now, it’s harmful to us. You want nuclear plant?? Nein nein nein. You buy gut power from us from our gut coal”

    ​

    I live close to the border and my pressure goes up every time some Germans (and Czechs too) complain about our mines, coal, air quality, water quality, everything quality but then they turn around and do the same or worse. And heavens forid we try to do something with it. I’m not fan of atomic power like a lot of people but it’s either that or we start digging in the Legnica market square for our huge lignite deposits.

  13. “Germans, not satisfied with derailing green energy projects at home that are entirely needed to prevent mass tragedy via climate disaster, seek to drag others down with them”
