If Russians end up cutting all the gas flow to Western Europe by next winter, I'd expect Germany to start reactivating even more coal fueled power plants to endure this year. Russia will probably take advantage of the winter to bend the political position of Russian gas dependant countries at his favor, a punishment.
Once Germany and allies welcome Spring, they might turn off the coal plants again and continue to implement green energy.

You can't do it just like that. Restaurants and bakeries use natural gas. You cut supply, you force them to buy electric furnaces, which puts more pressure on the grid and increases food prices. By pushing for green energy we've put the world in this crisis.
Depends if the people will cooperate or this will cause for another price increase since the supply will become more limited. Most probably they didn’t anticipate this one, and now the sanctions are hitting their back, hopefully they can find the alternatives since Russia is not the only one who export the gas though it’s pretty cheap but EU have no more choice but to look for alternatives and a better solution.
Due to the shortage of gas in EU base on reduction of gas supply from Russia, EU countries have come to agreement to voluntarily cut the reduce of gas consumption this winter by 15%.
EU countries assumed that Russia might cut the supply that pumps through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which runs into Germany.
Do you think this will help solve the EU gas shortage for now
