    Not true. Coal use has actually declined again quickly, while renewables have supplanted the (meagre) former nuclear capacity. Germany also imports a bit more power from its European neighbors to avoid spinning up costly fossil plants. Most of the imports are low-CO2, i.e. Swedish/Austrian/Swiss hydro power, Danish wind power, and French nuclear.
