There was no strong push way from nuclear energy, just a continuation of Germany's general nuclear energy path.
Studies also showed that this had no negative effect on electricity prices.
Core voters of the green party are mostly highly educated people[1].
There are not many more women than men in their voters[2].
I hear the first time about public employmemt, and haven't seen any statistics about that.
Regarding energy he certainly didn't gamble on energy.
He gave everything for a transition away from gas and coal and invested in renewable storage systems (short and long term storage) backed by scientific institutions continuously evaluating, planning and simulating the transition of Germanys energy system including related sectors until 2045/2050 [3].
Thanks to storage a renewable energy system can be reliable while highly dynamic.
He reduced the time needed to create wind turbines massively as well.
He also prevented a complete crash of the economy and infrastructure caused by the dependency on gas of Putin which greens have not been a fan of, because of ecological issues as well as the danger of Putin which only the greens recognized before Putin started the war on Ukraine.
Rising debt to invest into the future and infrastructure was then plan of the greens, but they got blocked (and medially attacked for it - claiming it was not needed) by the current government which then realized this plan (at least from a high level perspective) with the help of the greens in the opposition, because a simple majority isn't enough for increasing debt.
I am not aware of active acceleration of a decline of the industry beyond the decline which was already in the system for years and the situation we were in due to COVID and the war.
