I mean let’s be honest here, there’s no way they did this because of an underlying police change.
I suspect they rather looked at other western countries trying to build large-scale projects and noticed how absurd the idea of building one nuclear reactor without a 15y++ delay was, nevermind 10 of them. Quietly drop it before someone checks whether it’s even doable. 😅

Being against coal and gas, I want the fastest solution that displaces coal and gas. That’s wind and solar in most locations. It’s not nuclear. Nuclear takes a long time to build, and while you build it you’re still burning coal and gas. Recent experience is that you take the original schedule / budget and multiply by 2 to 3, so that’s even more time you’re still burning coal.
Granted, if you already have nuclear, don’t decommission it, but don’t build more either.

That’s a so stupid take it’s hilarious. It’d be a nice world if ecofanatics were spending half their energy against coal instead of fighting nuclear.

So you are against nuclear.
Sweden realized they couldn’t join NATO if they invited Chinese expertise to help build a nuclear power plant.
“Chinese expertise” building reactors like the ones in Finland, France and the UK?
