@dra6o0n building a new nuclear reactor takes decades.

@MacDaddy8200 Germany uses gas to heat. Nuclear is for electricity. Two different subjects.

Russia sells (sold) 80% of its gas to Europe. It has neither the pipe nor the LNG capacity to switch customers. Case in point: Russia already started to burn gas it did not sell to Europe.

@MacDaddy8200 Germany uses 10% of its gas for electricity, which can easily be replaced by coal plants they have in reserve. Germany can produce electricity without gas, in high enough quantity. But heating and industry require gas.

Thisis Gettinboring Germany has already enough gas in storage to cover the winter heating season. So it is available. German houses that heat with gas don’t have alternative infrastructure to heat with electricity. And considering that Germany has the most expensive electricity in the world, gas is still cheaper than electricity to heat.

@LordInquisitor701 Germanys storage is already at 80%. This is enough gas for January and February, if NO gas would come to Germany. But Germany has other sources and is starting its LNG terminals this winter.

@JA-pn4ji 80% of Russian gas goes to Europe, 3% to China. Russias Pipeline and LNG capacity are nowhere close to replace their European customers

Thisis Gettinboring russia is not the only supplier of gas to Germany. Reserves are enough for 2 months WHEN no one sells gas to Germany. But there are many countries that do, so it is more than enough

Why? Germany can live without Russian gas. It would be expensive, but there are other suppliers, and Germany is rich. It can simply outpay other customers

@JA-pn4ji yes, it would. Because Russia depends more on gas revenue than Europe depends on Russian gas. The Russian economy is tiny, people are already living at a minimum. You can’t take away much more before they are starving. On the other hand, Europe is rich and has reserves.
