Germany is shutting down nuclear and replacing it with coal and gas. The comparison to fossil fuel is incredibly apt.

Going by the German energy usage there's no replacement using fossil plants being done. It's all displaced by cheaper renewables, especially coal and old nuclear plants.

This is a silly move IMHO. The mix to go for should be clean + backup nuclear.
