Another important note about France: They are the second country alongside Germany heavily pushing for an upscaled green hydrogen market in the EU. Because -just like renewables- nuclear production doesn’t match the demand pattern at all. Thus it’s completely uneconomical without long-term storage.
The fact that we seem to constantly discuss nuclear vs. renewables is proof that it’s mostly lobbying bullshit. Because in reality they don’t compete. It’s either renewables+short-term storage+long-term-term storage or renewables+nuclear+long-term storage. Those are the only two viable models.

That’s been the talk in town for 40 years now. Green hydrogen has never gotten beyond proof-of-concept.
Sadly, it’s because the political green parties available to me are anti-nuclear.
Why is nuclear+short term storage not an option, according to you?
Due to the recent nuclear hype uranium price will rise and keep in mind that the resource will not exceed a century.
