Y’know if you actually understand the economics behind nuclear in the current day. It is too expensive to build new ones. Even France is having issues. Here’s a clue (btw this is 2019 before a high interest rate environment and France having a ton of economies of scale in nuclear infrastructure): “The delays at the Flamanville site in northern France come on top of a massive cost overrun at the Hinkley Point nuclear project EDF is building in Britain and a decade-long delay to the Olkiluoto plant in Finland. EDF's European Pressurised Reactor (EPR) reactor in Flamanville is now seven years late and costs have more than tripled to 12.4 billion euros ($13.7 billion).” That said, hydrogen is a massive gadgetbahn as it is essentially one extra unneeded step.

@keksentdecker Only Germany did that. In 2009 when the nuclear power plants were already getting old. They were caught between a rock and a hard place.
