Can Germany keep the lights on without reactors?
When Germany decided a year ago, after the Fukushima disaster, to phase out nuclear energy by 2022, economists were worried.
Would the country be able to replace its 17 nuclear plants, which supplied 23 per cent of its electricity in 2010, with renewable forms of energy? Would electricity prices go through the roof? Would the move endanger German industry?
It will be years before the answers are known for sure. But the Energiewende, as Germans call the energy U-turn, has already produced one certainty: The country's four giant power companies, which were already compelled last year to shut eight of their nuclear plants for good, are among the big losers. Their fate may revive heretical thoughts of a reprieve for atomic power.
Half a decade ago, the big four -- EON, ENBW, RWE and Vattenfall -- were still widely seen as a cartel.
They provided 86 per cent of the power supply and controlled most of the distribution network. Profits were juicy, share prices were high and the industry's bosses were welcome guests at Berlin's chancellery. In short, life was good for Germany's energy giants.
Then their fortunes turned. In short order the firms were dealt two body blows. The first they could have coped with: The European Commission forced them to spin off their transmission networks.
The effect was compounded, however, by the Energiewende, which curtails the firms' most predictable source of revenue. All nuclear plants have to be taken offline by 2022 -- and, despite the shutdown, the companies will have to pay a nuclear-fuel tax of around $2.9 billion a year until 2016.
In the meantime, thousands of subsidized wind farms and solar arrays are hobbling the earning power of conventional power stations.
The midday peak, when the giants used to command premium electricity prices, is undercut by solar power. Winter winds whip away the margins big, inflexible plants used to enjoy.
To add insult to injury, consumers and power-hungry industries still expect the power utilities to take up the slack when sun and wind are idle.
Last February, with all the active nuclear plants working at full capacity, Germany's energy producers were only barely able to keep the lights on.
The firms need to build new capacity, but what kind of replacements should they invest in as nuclear plants and aging conventional power stations go off stream?
Offshore wind farms are expensive and their income unpredictable. Low gas prices make the returns on gas-fired plants too uncertain. New coal-fired stations may look attractive now, but could falter if, as seems likely, charges for carbon emissions go higher.
As a result, it is almost impossible to calculate the future returns on a new power station during the next 20 or 30 years.
Opponents of the erstwhile oligopoly are understandably triumphant. Even most of the business world and the power giants themselves support the nuclear phase-out, at least in public.
And that is despite the threat of soaring electricity prices. Various estimates say the U-turn will push up consumer prices by between 20 per cent and 60 per cent by 2020.
What is more, to encourage investment in new conventional power stations, extra subsidies may be needed to reward standby capacity or stored power reserves.
There is also the chance the energy U-turn could prove illegal. EON and RWE have filed cases with the federal constitutional court claiming the abrupt closure of nuclear plants is tantamount to expropriation. As a foreign investor, Vattenfall -- which is owned by the Swedish government -- is seeking redress through arbitration in Washington.
The German government faces damages from these claims that could total over 19 billion dollars.
Nobody in Germany dares to talk publicly about a reprieve for nuclear power, but obliquely the lobbying has never truly died.
The economics ministry, under pressure from the Federation of German Industry, has set up an independent process to "monitor" the U-turn, with a view to possible course corrections -- but with no mention of the word "nuclear."
Energy-intensive industries, especially, are concerned rising electricity costs could damage competitiveness.
The German Atomic Forum, a lobbying group, warns the country's nuclear expertise, second only to France's, will slowly be eroded.
It is still needed to run and decommission existing plants, but the incentive to choose a career in nuclear energy in Germany is dying. Siemens, for instance, continues to export components used in nuclear plants, but it no longer actively seeks nuclear projects.
Although the power giants may once have been part of the unacceptable face of Deutschland AG, their weakened state is not such a desirable outcome either.
Has Germany said goodbye to nuclear power for good? The arguments for another U-turn will not go away.

Anthem agrees to credit $20M to Colorado customers
- Ed Sealover
Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Colorado has agreed to credit $20 million to individual-market health-care customers as part of a settlement with the Colorado Division of Insurance.
The deal, announced Thursday, comes amid a seven-month-long market conduct examination the division had undertaken into Anthem's rates following an "exceptional" number of complaints state officials received about the insurer's rate hikes in late 2009 and earlier this year.
It is believed to be the largest settlement involving a private health-insurance company in the state since Kaiser Permanente Colorado agreed to provide $155 million in relief in June 2008.
Details of the settlement are confidential, and neither Anthem nor Colorado Insurance Commissioner Marcy Morrison would cite the specific reason that Anthem is being required to give the large sum of money back to customers.
Morrison noted, though, that the division logged 210 customer complaints about increases in Anthem's individual rate plans from December 2009 through March 2010, prompting the investigation into rate hikes that had been granted to the insurer in January 2009, July 2009 and January 2010. "That was exceptional in terms of numbers," Morrison said of the amount of complaints.
But Joyzelle Davis, public relations coordinator for Anthem, noted that Anthem admitted no fault or wrongdoing in the settlement and that is was not required to pay any fine to the state. Davis also pointed out that the settlement does not require Anthem to change any of its 2010 premiums.
When asked why Anthem — the state's largest individual-market health-care insurance provider — signed onto the stipulated agreement, Davis said the company needed to turn its attention to its business rather than spending so much time dealing with the state.
"We truly felt we needed to terminate this exam so we could devote our full attention to serving members," Davis said. She added that the payments will not impact company operations because Anthem maintains reserve levels to prepare for such contingencies.
Morrison, meanwhile, said she could not answer questions about specifics of the confidential settlement but said that Anthem signed onto the deal after hearing the state's arguments.
"The question to Anthem is: Why were they willing to settle? This is a settlement agreement for $20 million," Morrison said. "We believe it will be extremely beneficial to those folks [receiving credits]. Anthem knows precisely why it is paying $20 million."
The credits will be issued to anyone who had individual insurance coverage through Anthem between Jan. 1 and Sept. 30 of this year but will not include Colorado Major Med, Custom Plus Plan or group conversion policyholders. No one receiving insurance through Anthem as part of a small-group plan purchased by their employer will receive a credit.
The credits will be based on a pro-rata determination of premiums paid by the customers but will amount to an average of one month's premium per customer, Davis said.

CQS is up 29% this year, but that could be only the beginning, according to the firm's founder.
Michael Hintze told the Reuters Global Investment 2013 Outlook Summit that next year looks to offer a dizzying array of opportunities for its Directional Opportunities Fund, both in stocks and bands. "I'm trying to make 20% to 30% per annum," he said "I haven't give any money back, so I still feel I'm going to have a bloody good go at it."
"There are massive distortions out there," Hintze said. "Double-B, B debt is totally mispriced because of… Basel III" rules, he said. "I'd even suggest equities might be cheap because of the lack of prop. trading."
Still, while he's leaning towards stocks, Hintze said it was still "a little early" to begin increasing CQS' exposure.
"The loans sector here is way cheaper than it should be because of the skin-in-the-game legislation," Hintze said, adding that the rules have "destroyed the CLO industry."
Hintze also had reassuring words for both sides of the Atlantic, expressing confidence that the U.S. will be able to deal with the so-called "fiscal cliff" and that there is "immense" political will to deal with Europe's debt problems.
"Remember, you can have very good markets and pretty lackluster fundamental economy," he said.

Google's Self-Driving Test Car Takes Blind Man to Taco Bell
Steve Mahan is 95% blind, but was able to take in some Taco Bell and get his dry cleaning with the help of Google's modified Toyota Prius that was built to drive itself. The car uses technology outed by Goolge back in 2010 and does the work for the person in the driver's seat. Of course, Mahan wasn't alone since Morgan Hill Police Department Sergeant Troy Hoefling was in the passenger seat. Mahan is the CEO of the Santa Clara Valley Blind Center in San Jose and does note that the car would change his life and allow him more "independence and flexibility."
Self-driving cars are well in the works, even though it's still years until they hit the marketplace. But they are getting closer to becoming an everyday reality. Most recently, Nevada became the first state to have regulations for companies that are testing driverless vehicles back in February.

Arizona Cardinals
Warner: Peyton Manning with Cardinals 'could be special'
Didn't we just endure a full off-season and then another 16 games of a "quarterback controversy" here in Arizona?
But rumors never stop in sports, especially when former NFL executives spark them on national television.
Charley Casserly, a former front office guru with the Washington Redskins and Houston Texans, and now an analyst with CBS Sports, dropped the "Peyton Manning to Cardinals" bomb during a Sunday telecast.
With the fuse lit, it's time to project.
Former Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner joined Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 620 Monday, and did just that.
"Nothing against Kevin Kolb or John Skelton and all those guys, but if you get a chance to get Peyton Manning, and you can pull that off, you get Peyton Manning because he's a once-in-a-lifetime type guy," Warner said.
"He's a special player, and if you add him to Larry Fitzgerald and the defense that they have here and maybe a couple other pieces around him, and it could be special."
Manning, of course, didn't take a snap this season after signing a 5-year, $90 million contract and undergoing two neck surgeries. The Colts may be interested in cutting the 4-time MVP because they own the top pick in this year's NFL Draft, and Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck is considered the most intriguing QB prospect since Manning himself entered the league in 1998.
While intrigued, Warner was careful not to get too caught up in Casserly's comments.
"It sounds like it's all speculation right now, so I don't think you jump too far down that road or on that bandwagon right now," he said.
He's also not sure that the Colts will be so anxious to cut Manning either.
"I just have a hard time believing that he won't be in Indianapolis regardless of who their pick is or who they can get," Warner said. "I don't think anybody wants to be the guy that lets Peyton Manning go if he can play football the way he's always played football."

Tube commuters endure Monday misery
Thousands of commuters suffered nightmare journeys to work today after a series of problems on the London Underground.
To make matters worse, all the difficulties affected the north west area of the capital, with passengers seeking to avoid delays on one Tube line then facing delays on other routes.
The worst problem was on the Metropolitan line where late-running engineering work meant there were no trains able to run between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Aldgate.
A late finish to engineering work on the Jubilee line led to a suspension of services in the rush-hour between Stanmore and Willesden Green, with severe delays on the rest of the line.
Passengers trying to get round the problems by switching to the Piccadilly line then ran into more problems, with a faulty train at Rayners Lane leading to severe delays between South Harrow and Uxbridge.
Intrepid travellers then tried their luck with London Overground or Bakerloo line services in north west London. But a signal failure at Queen's Park led to severe delays to Bakerloo services and also caused problems for Euston-bound London Overground trains.
London Underground chief operating officer Howard Collins said: "Engineering works to replace more than half a kilometre of track this weekend overran, which mean the Jubilee and the Metropolitan lines were part-suspended this morning.
"Our engineers are working flat-out to restore services as soon as possible and rail replacement buses are running. I would like to apologise to passengers who were affected by the delay in services. We will be carrying out a thorough investigation into what caused the works to overrun."
To add to a morning of upheaval on the Tube, the last part of the rush-hour was affected by a signal failure at Brixton in south London which led to delays on the Victoria line.

Basingstoke - or Doughnut City as it's traditionally known because of the number of roundabouts upon roundabouts around the town - sits in the beautiful countryside of northern Hampshire but benefits from having the M3 run a couple of miles south of the town. This enables commuters easy access to London or Southampton - and good rail links also favour the local economy. It's a town with more employers than most - so much so that there are disproportionately fewer people leaving to find work elsewhere than in most other UK towns.

Would YOU drink a pint of man-made cows' milk? Scientists are developing artificial beverage that could spell the end of dairies
- Start-up company Muufri is planning to produce cow-free milk soon
- The team will create the proof-of-concept at University College Cork, Ireland
- The product is not only artificial but also free of lactose and cholesterol
- Manufacturing process begins soon with the final product ready by July 2015
- Ultimately the team hopes to bring their artifical milk to mark in three years
- They hope that it will reduce our dependence on industrial farming
- And they predict in 100 years this will be the main way we get our milk
- 'It hasn't been done yet because no one has made milk from scratch before,' the team tells MailOnline
Imagine a world where milk is not only artificially produced, but also free of lactose and cholesterol.
That's the dream of three bio-engineers in the US who are preparing to produce a proof-of-concept of their cow-free milk.
Ryan Pandya, Perumal Gandhi and Isha Datar are the founders of biotech start-up Muufri, and by next year they're expecting to have made the first batch of their potentially revolutionary beverage.
Ryan Pandya (left), Perumal Gandhi (right) and Isha Datar are the three members of the US-based company Muufri, which by next year is hoping to have produced the world's first batch of artificially produced milk. In three years the team hopes to bring the lactose-free product to market
The purpose of the company is not just to produce a beverage that can be enjoyed by 75 per cent of the world's population, who are lactose-intolerant.
In other milk news a glass of milk a day could help stop women's knees from creaking, claim researchers in a report for the journal Arthritis Care & Research
The US study found women who frequently drink fat-free or low-fat milk may have less osteoarthritis in the knee.
But eating cheese increased the problem in women.
Drinking milk made little difference in men, and eating yogurt did not affect progression in men or women.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that causes pain and swelling of joints in the hand, hips, or knee.
Lead author Dr Bing Lu, from Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston, said: 'Milk consumption plays an important role in bone health.
'Our study is the largest study to investigate the impact of dairy intake in the progression of knee OA.'
They also want to reduce our dependence on animals, and developing this product would be an important step in that regard.
Muufri will be part of the Synthetic Biology Accelerator, sponsored by SOSVentures, and the team is making their product at University College Cork in Ireland.
The team believes producing the key components of milk in yeast culture will make it possible to provide consumers and food manufacturers with the same products they know and love, but through a more sustainable, healthy and humane process.
'It hasn't been done yet because no one has made milk from scratch before,' the team tells MailOnline.
They explain how the idea for the project came about by the huge industrial farming operations in North America.
'It's upsetting to us because it results in a reduced quality of milk and causes so many issues in terms of environmental damage, greenhouse gases and water pollution.
'These are big problems that start to happen when you crowd animals together.
'We asked ourselves, what is the product? It's not the cow, it's the milk the cow produces.'
So the team went away and did some research on the composition of milk, and they were surprised to find that it was remarkably simple.
The purpose of the company is not just to produce a beverage that can be enjoyed by 75 per cent of the world's population, who are lactose-intolerant. They also want to reduce our dependence on animals, and developing this product would be an important step in that regard
The team were surprised to find that it was remarkably simple to make milk. The main components that give it its flavour and function are six proteins and eight fats. Lactose is also present but the team say it is superfluous; their cow-free milk will also be lactose-free
The main components that give it its flavour and function are six proteins and eight fats.
Lactose is also present but the team say it is superfluous; their cow-free milk will also be lactose-free.
And with 75 per cent of the world's population lactose intolerant, particularly people in Asia, that will be music to the ears of many.
They predict that in 100 years, artificial milk will be the norm for world's then-expected population of nine billion people.
The team is hoping to have a proof of concept by July 2015 - after that they will then look into ways to scale up production to bring it to market.
'Three years from now we expect to be on shelves,' they say.
And ultimately they're hoping to jump into production with first a do-it-yourself-kit, which will include the proteins and other ingredients needed to make artificial milk.
'It's a win-win situation,' the team adds, 'unless you're a big dairy executive.'

Georgia is denying it caused the decline of oysters in Apalachicola Bay beginning in 2012 and says Florida is responsible for environmental problems along the Apalachicola River.
Alabama, Florida and Georgia have been battling in court since 1990 over water from the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River system. Florida contends that increasing water use upstream harms oysters and the seafood industry at Apalachicola Bay by depriving the estuary of needed fresh water.
At the direction of Gov. Rick Scott, Florida in 2013 asked the U. S. Supreme Court to divide water among the states. Florida said Georgia's storage and use of water over several years had reduced freshwater flows, causing the oyster population to collapse and threatening endangered and threatened sturgeon and mussels in the Apalachicola River.
The Supreme Court in November allowed the case to proceed and in December appointed Maine lawyer Ralph I. Lancaster to oversee the matter.
Last week, Georgia responded to Florida's claims by pointing out that Scott in 2012 blamed drought and overfishing — not lack of water flowing from Georgia — for the lack of oysters in Apalachicola Bay.
Georgia said Florida is responsible for some or all of the decline of Apalachicola Bay oysters by permitting the overfishing and the harvest of undersized oysters.
Furthermore, Georgia said Florida had failed to close portions of the bay to fishing to create a reserve stock of oysters, failed to lease areas for oyster harvesting and failed to replace shells taken from oyster bars even though shell replacement and oyster planting have been conducted for 100 years.
Georgia didn't say exactly how leasing harvest areas could protect oysters. The Georgia Environmental Protection Department declined to answer questions, citing unspecified instructions from Lancaster to lawyers in the case. The Gainesville Times in Georgia reported Monday on the state's response in the lawsuit.
In a Dec. 22 letter, Lancaster urged the lawyers from both states to continue to "meet, confer and work collaboratively and cooperatively" and to "aggressively explore settlement possibilities." A case management plan allows states to request that documents in the case be classified as confidential and sealed from public view.
Georgia seems to be implying that leasing areas of Apalachicola Bay would prevent overfishing or the taking of undersized oysters presumably by restricting legal access to harvest areas.
Florida wildlife officials said Tuesday they could not respond to Georgia's statements because of the pending litigation.
Jeri Bustamante, press secretary for the Florida governor, responded Friday that Scott is committed to fighting for the families that rely on Apalachicola River and Bay. She did not respond to individual claims made by Georgia.
"We have brought suit in the United States Supreme Court to check Georgia's excessive consumption of water, and we are confident in the case we are building," Bustamante said.
Asked whether leasing oyster harvesting areas would help the bay, Nick Wiley, executive director of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said after a Senate committee meeting, "We don't feel like it's right to force any type of regulatory program on that community."
"What we've got to do is work hand-in-hand and find the right solutions," he said.
Shannon Hartsfield, president of the Franklin County Seafood Workers Association, said leasing areas may not reduce overfishing because oyster harvesting then would be classified as aquaculture and size and catch limits would not apply.
"The leases would make it worse," Hartsfield said.
Hartsfield told the Senate Committee on Agriculture on Tuesday that oyster reproduction seems to be improving because of increased freshwater flows over the past year and because of shell that had been placed in the bay to restore oyster reefs.
In an interview, Hartsfield dismissed Georgia's claim that Florida is allowing overfishing of oysters. He said there was no daily catch limit until the 1990s, when it was reduced to 20 bags of oysters per person.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on Sept. 1 reduced the daily limit to five bags.
"They (Georgia officials) are just pulling something from out of their hat — that's what they're trying to do now," Hartsfield said.
Wiley said Scott's statement in 2012 that overfishing was to blame for the oyster population collapse was made early in the process — before University of Florida scientists in 2013 reported that harvesting was not to blame.

After taking office this week, "The North Florida Way" for U. S. Rep. Gwen Graham on Friday meant joining with Republicans on Friday in support of the Keystone XL oil pipeline.
Graham, D-Tallahassee, unseated Republican Rep. Steve Southerland of Panama City in November. She said in her campaign she would bring the "North Florida Way" to Washington including an end to partisan bickering.
On Friday, her vote for the Keystone XL Pipeline Act championed by Republicans received cheers from the energy industry and complaints from environmentalists. Graham said the pipeline would lead to lower gas prices in the future.
"I'm supporting this pipeline with the expectation it will be built as one of the safest in the world," Graham said in a statement. "Democrats and Republicans came together to pass this legislation, now we must continue to work together to protect our country's natural resources."
Graham joined Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Jupiter, as the only other Democrat from Florida in support of the bill while eight Democrats voted against. All 17 Republican House members from Florida voted for the bill. The House voted 266-153 to pass the measure.
Democratic activist Barbara DeVane wrote on Facebook that Graham's ceremonial swearing in later this month could become a "swearing at" event because of the vote.
Environmentalists oppose the pipeline, saying that burning the oil from Canada will contribute to climate change and threaten the environment in areas where the pipeline crosses.
The pipeline would carry more than 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Canada to Texas refineries along a proposed 1,179-mile route through plains states, according to U. S. News.
"So many energy and environmental advocates that I know in Leon County spent so much time and energy working to elect her (Graham), and she votes like Southerland would have," Tallahassee environmentalist Brian Lee said on Facebook.
Graham's vote won support from David Mica of the Florida Petroleum Council and its parent group, the American Petroleum Institute. President Obama has threatened to veto the bill.
"Congress is leading on Keystone XL in a bipartisan fashion proving Washington can get things done, despite obstacles from the executive branch," API President and CEO Jack Gerard said. "We strongly urge all members to approve the KXL legislation despite the White House veto threat."

Sen. President Andy Gardiner said Thursday that a five-year planning process for land purchases and water projects may be a good idea following voter approval last month of Amendment 1.
The amendment provides one-third of revenue from an excise tax on real estate to water and land conservation. Amendment 1 was approved by 75 percent of voters statewide.
This week, fiscal analysts estimated the tax would generate $1.9 billion in the coming fiscal year, meaning that nearly $704 million could be earmarked for conservation. The Revenue Estimating Conference said legislative action is required.
Amendment 1 already has generated debate about whether voters wanted to buy land with the money as opposed to spending to improve sewage treatment.
Meanwhile, supporters of greenways are asking that 10 percent of Amendment 1 revenue go towards a statewide trail network that could cost $2.6 billion.
"I would imagine everybody's got a carve-out they're going to want," Gardiner, R-Orlando, said Thursday.
He said the Senate is reviewing the state budget to determine what spending now qualifies under Amendment 1.
"We're already spending more than what the 33 percent (Amendment 1) would force you to do," Gardiner said.
And he said he expects Amendment 1 to be the focus of Senate committee meetings in January.
"It's important we hear from the supporters of Amendment 1," Gardiner told reporters. "What did they anticipate when they drafted it? If you had 10 attorneys in a room, you'd get 10 different opinions on what you could do with Amendment 1."
As a former Senate transportation committee chairman, Gardiner said the five-year work programs used in transportation planning may be a good idea for land acquisition and water projects.
"It allows local communities to plan," he said. "It gives you some flexibility that if there is some land that needs to be acquired, you could do it in a partnership. Because everybody knows what that five-year plan is."
Now, legislators decide funding for water projects while the Florida Department of Environmental Protection awards funding for springs improvement. The state's land acquisition priority list and work plan is approved by the governor and Cabinet.
