Interesting. What's the timeline and price point here? I hear they are currently running coal power to compensate for their struggling existing nuclear plants?

EDF’s EPR reactors have suffered a troubled history. EPR projects at Flamanville in France and Hinkley Point in Britain are running years behind schedule, and billions over budget, while EPR reactors in China and Finland have been hit by technical issues.

I fear that the french government has sunk so much money into this strategy that it would be hard to exit. Especially at a time where renewable power is getting very cheap. Nuclear hasn't seen a price drop and apparently is costing the french state a lot.
