The expression ‘facing out’ is inappropriate here. The correct word must be ‘phasing out’. The phrasal verb ‘phase something out’ means ‘to remove or stop using something gradually or in stages’. The German government said that decommissioning all nuclear plants next year and then phasing out the use of coal by 2030 won't affect the country's energy security or its goal of making Europe's biggest economy “climate neutral” by 2045.
