France calls for nuclear 'renaissance' to end reliance on fossil fuels
French President Macron announced plans to build six more nuclear reactors, and also put funds into fossil fuel. He also said that €1 billion in financing will be open to developers of so-called small modular reactors, or SMRs. The President also wanted more renewables to be on the French grid.
This is interesting in terms of the nuclear industry and increased development of SMRs could be valuable in addressing climate change.
