Wow, the Energiewende caused lower econic growth... Strong claims require strong evidence, especially if the come with specific numbers.

Strong claims? So you want proof that an increase in the price of energy, which is an input into absolutely every good and service, causes less goods and services to be produced? I don't think we have a basis for discussion here.

Unless you bring studies from actual economist making the same claim I agree, we don't have a basis.
