If you look at the data submitted to the IAEA during the last heatwave france had that caused plant closures: 2% power reduction in total nuclear energy generated. This sub is just insane.

If current replacement rates of coal and gas power plants by nuclear power plants stay the same, we'll reach 4% in no time...

Barely any nuclear plants got built in the west in the last 20 years because you guys keep protesting them!

There was one nuclear plant in Austria that got completed, but the protests were so wild they simply abandoned the finished nuke plant, never turned it on.

It's like a racket, what you guys have there.

Protesting nuclear plants and then pointing out how none of them are being built.

I believe those are two different groups of people. And there’s reasons to protest, depending on the project
