Production of nuclear fuel in Germany 2000-2021
As Germany prepared to exit nuclear power at the end of 2022, the country's production of nuclear fuel decreased steadily. In 2021, Germany generated a volume of 17.8 million metric tons of oil equivalent. By comparison, before the decision to withdraw from nuclear energy, the nuclear fuel produced amounted to over 40 million metric tons of oil equivalent. Germany phased-out nuclear power in April 2023.
