German utility RWE will not keep nuclear plant open
German utility RWE told journalists on Tuesday that they wont let nuclear power plants open longer because they produce less carbon dioxide.
"We are not available for this," CEO Markus Krebber told journalists.
The German government is paying four nuclear operators, including RWE, around US $3.05 billion to force them to close their nuclear plants.
RWE, which relied heavily on nuclear power and coal, has now transferred itself into the largest green power companies in Europe.
