> As a result of this incident, France pushed for more nuclear investments and dropped the mandatory renewables share.
Which has not materialized. This is where the thread started:
> The EPR2 program is in absolute shambles.
> Currently the French can’t even agree on how to fund the absolutely insanely bonkers subsidies.
> Now targeting investment decision in 2026… And the French government just fell because they are underwater in debt and have a spending problem which they can’t agree on how to fix.
> A massive handout to the dead end nuclear industry sounds like the perfect solution!
I mean, if the renewable policies didn't fail that hard, the French state wouldn't have to revive the nuclear program in 2022
Sure now it will take some time to be effective but that's what happen when you give the keys to politicians and not engineers.
