Many countries -- among which Switzerland and Germany -- have announced ambitious plans to phase out nuclear energy and to substantially reduce their CO2 emissions. Switching production to more renewable energy sources (in particular wind and solar) implies a profound energy transition, which is only achievable if the major stakeholders (power producers, grid companies, industrial consumers, and most of all citizens) will play the game.
