I love the framing. "Little bit of renewables" when in China they are literally 5x in size of the nuclear production. Nuclear power in China peaked at 4.7% in 2021 and is now down to 4.3%. Entirely irrelevant.
The problem I am mentioning has nothing to do with ARENH, and the protectionism isn't the ARENH. It is not building more renewables and dragging their feet on interconnects.

For France, it doesn't make economic sense to build more wind and solar and build more interconnects.
It will be interesting to see how wind and solar will evolve in Germany after changes in EEG subsidies.
