These amount to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleanenergywire.org\/news\/germanys-aspiring-coalition-parties-disagree-over-coal-exit-speed\" target=\"_blank\">8-10GW of power generation capacity<\/a> and release around 50 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions a year.<\/p>\n<p>The 7GW\u00a0compromise would have\u00a0cut annual CO2 emissions by\u00a040Mt\u00a0and shut 14 coal plants or the equivalent, according to the office of Annalena Barbock, another German Green negotiator. Extra policies in the transport and buildings sectors would also have been needed to meet the national 2020 target.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership expressed confidence it could have sold that package to its &#8211; more radical &#8211; membership.<\/p>\n<p>B\u00fctikofer called the 7GW agreement \u201cour most important achievement\u201d in the negotiations. In return, he said the party had given ground on phasing out the \u201csolidarity tax\u201d,\u00a0created to help East Germany recover after unification.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we talked to environmental NGOs, they told us the minimum should be 8-10GW,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen we asked them about 7GW, they said: &#8216;It is not enough but it&#8217;s far too good to reject the offer. Go for it.&#8217; All of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2017\/11\/13\/trumps-climate-official-i-actually-dont-know-2c-means\/\"><strong>Report:<\/strong> Protesters storm Trump coal event at UN climate talks<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At the last moment though, FDP leader Christian Lindner rejected the package, which would have put the coal phase-out \u201con a legal basis\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the FDP leader used the coal issue \u201cto leverage antagonism\u201d with the CDU in North Rhine Westphalia, which is ruled by a FDP-CDU coalition. B\u00fctikofer said: \u201cThe governor there promised to support the Chancellor&#8217;s line on energy policy &#8211; which was not easy for him to do &#8211; and [the FDP] threatened to attack him from the right if he did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coal was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/world\/2017\/11\/21\/16684880\/angela-merkel-coalition-fail-germany\">not the only issue<\/a> motivating the FDP to walk out. The rightwing party wanted to end the \u201csolidarity tax\u201d by 2021, to cut taxes more broadly, and to end Germany&#8217;s \u201copen door\u201d policy for refugees.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, climate and energy policy was central to the Greens&#8217; election campaign.\u00a0The party won 9% of the vote, compared to the FDP&#8217;s 11%.<\/p>\n<p>Opponents of a rapid coal phase-out argue it threatens energy security and thousands of jobs.\u00a0B\u00fctikofer said a 7GW cut would only hit exports, not domestic power consumption.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course there is the issue of the coal miners and that would have been extremely critical and sensitive in North Rhine Westphalia and Brandenberg and Saxony,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Greens had worked with trades unions and regional leaders on plans to develop alternative sources of employment, he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Green Party will only join a coalition promising to close at least 7GW of
