Di tori we President Donald Trump of America talk about Germany energy matter no just be lie, e even be like say na to ginger im Republican supporters to love fossil fuel more.
Trump talk say Germany dey open new coal power plant every day and dem don return back to coal to make light (electricity).
This tori na pure lie – no get any fact to back am and e no match wetin dey happen for Germany.
Di Context of Trump Lies
For one campaign rally wey happen for Savannah, Georgia, for September 2024, Trump yarn say:
“Germany try but dem come replace Angela with another person, and now dis new person dey build one coal plant every week for Germany.”
Just yesterday, Trump talk di same thing again – say Germany dey open one coal plant every day. Trump dey lie – and e dey repeat di lie again and again and again…

Trump still talk say: “Germany try wind turbine and e no work.” He talk say dem don try all other options but e no gree work. “Now dem dey open coal plant every week.” But he no show any proof or explanation.
Instead, he dey praise coal wey he call “beautiful and clean” as energy source. But as he dey repeat di lie, im supporters dey believe am more.
Wetin Really Dey Happen
Germany no dey build new coal plants – dem dey shut am down. Just last week, one coal plant wey remain na im dem demolish.
Di same thing dey happen round di world: fossil fuel dey go down, while wind and solar energy dey go up. But Trump and fossil fuel lobby no like this kind progress.
Fact Check: Germany Energy Change and Coal Shutdown
Germany don dey do energy change (Energiewende) for many years now – dem wan make renewable energy take over and comot coal small small. One big part of di plan na to shutdown coal power stations one by one.
From 2000 to 2021, Germany don shutdown 11 gigawatt worth of coal electricity. Na dem Federal Network Agency talk this one. So, di coal business dey reduce steady steady.
World Level: Wind and Solar Don Dey Rise
No be Germany alone. For di whole world, wind and solar energy dey gain ground. See numbers below:
- 2000: Wind and solar na less than 1% of world electricity.
- 2005: Na around 1.1% (wind: 0.95%, solar: 0.15%).
- 2010: E don reach 2.8%.
- 2015: About 5% (wind: 3.5%, solar: 1.5%).
- 2020: Na 9.3% total.
- 2023: E don reach 13.4% (wind: 7.8%, solar: 5.5%).
- 2024: New numbers show solar alone na 6.9% of di whole world light.
Dis show say di world don dey move to better clean energy, and Trump lie no fit stand ground here.
Conclusion
Trump dey use fake tori about Germany energy matter to push im own agenda make im Republican people support fossil fuel. But wetin dey really happen for Germany – and for di whole world – na say people dey move to better, cleaner energy like wind and solar. Di facts no lie, but Trump dey.
