Summary/Abstract: In the last decade, Germany’s climate policy was ineffective and the activities carried out by successive governments were inconsistent with their initial declarations. The federal government lacked the determination to implement solutions aimed at accelerating the energy transition, which could potentially target the interests of influential industrial, business and social groups.
