> Someone from France is telling you that actually, it's really not that great.

Relative to...what? Is there any major country that has a great power grid, objectively better than France? Certainly we have plenty of problems here in the US.

I'm a big nuclear power advocate but of course NP has problems, like any human project. It has dangers, like any scalable power supply. I support NP because it is better than all the rest.




I do agree with that and some replies in favour of nuclear energy were totally sensical. The initial article is not and should be balanced with issues and yes, sometimes irrational fears, we do face as a country relying mostly on this energy source. The risk of electricity cut was a big deal this winter, might be next winter too.
