Is Germany's energy transition, with all of its community renewables, too expensive? Today, we talk with Prof. Justus Haucap, a critic of the price tag as the former chair of Germany's Monopoly Commision. Shuwei Zhang of the Draworld Center explains what policies China has used. Prof. Lorenz Jarass (yes, the one with the jokes!) explains how the German power market makes renewables look expensive. Consultant Uwe Nestle argues that social policy, not energy policy, should be used to protect the poor. And finally, Jakob Schlandt of German Daily Tagesspiegel explains how he no longer criticizes the pricetag, but instead celebrates how far we have come so fast.
