(ANSA-AFP) - BERLIN, OCT 4 - German energy giant RWE said Tuesday it will exit coal power by 2030 as Germany looks to wind down its reliance on fossil fuels, despite an energy crisis caused by Russia's war in Ukraine. "Phasing out coal is the only way to achieve the country's climate protection goals. We, as RWE, are making a significant contribution to this -- we will end coal-based power generation in 2030," CEO Markus Krebber told a press conference. (ANSA-AFP).
