The problem in germany is that we been ruled by Conservatives who failed to expand the grid so the cheap energy (in the north) gets where it's needed (in the south).
Expanding the grid and the storage is still cheaper than investing in nuclear.
And despite all the fossil driven propaganda the german power grid still operates very reliable. (Execpt when terrorists cut a single line, because again we've been ruled by Conservatives and they don't seem to know what redundancy means)
Do you mean that renewable are mostly concentrated in the north of Germany and fossil fueled power plant are mostly used in the south ?
