  1. Good news getting a direct link to the European market, diversity of supply is important. Let’s get that French nuclear power flowing.

  2. Great stuff! Hopefully the French build it so we aren’t fucked in the ass again.

    Edit: oh I’m sorry, children’s hospital fiasco never happened. Right.

  3. oh yes, roll on that lovely cheap French nuclear power without the hassle of storing radioactive waste for hundreds of years. Great deal for Ireland and it will finally put to bed the crazy notion of spending 10 billion to build a reactor here, would be 20 billion by the time its finished

  4. Nuclear is the future, green parties and their anti nuclear stance has only made states like Russia and the Saudis etc hold to much power over the planet.

  5. France plans to build another 6 nuclear power plants, but unsure if this is an additional 6, or just replacing plants that are being decommissioned.

    Either way, cleaner than our coal power plants.
