20/13742: Proposed Resolution and Report on the Motion by Representatives Karsten Hilse, Steffen Kotré, Dr. Rainer Kraft, Other Representatives, and the AfD Parliamentary Group – 20/13230 – Prosperity Instead of Austerity – Embarking on a New Start with Nuclear Energy – Reliable, Affordable, and Environmentally Friendly Energy Supply for All (PDF)
Date: 2024-11-13 11:00
Proposed Resolution:
The German Bundestag calls upon the Federal Government to:
-
Refrain from continuing to phase out nuclear energy and instead extend the operating life of existing nuclear power plants;
-
Approve the construction of new nuclear power plants in Germany;
-
Provide financial incentives for the construction and operation of nuclear power plants;
-
Ensure that nuclear energy is included in the European Union’s taxonomy for sustainable investments.
Rationale:
The motion argues that nuclear energy is a reliable, affordable, and environmentally friendly source of energy that can help Germany achieve its climate protection goals. The proponents of the motion claim that phasing out nuclear energy will lead to higher energy prices, job losses, and increased dependence on fossil fuels. They also argue that nuclear energy is a safer and more sustainable option than renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power.
The motion has been met with opposition from environmental groups and some political parties. Critics of the motion argue that nuclear energy is too expensive, too risky, and not environmentally friendly. They also argue that Germany can meet its climate protection goals without relying on nuclear energy.
Report:
The report accompanying the proposed resolution provides a detailed analysis of the arguments for and against nuclear energy. The report concludes that nuclear energy is a reliable and affordable source of energy that can help Germany achieve its climate protection goals. However, the report also acknowledges that nuclear energy is a complex and controversial technology with significant risks.
The report recommends that the German Bundestag approve the proposed resolution and call upon the Federal Government to take steps to support the development of nuclear energy in Germany.
