What I never understood was how France gets 70-75% of their electricity from Nuclear, yet their energy prices aren't "too cheap to meter", and while cheaper than their neighbors, don't really raise any eyebrows. Wouldn't this be a major example of why Nuclear is NOT the future?

I mean.. They literally just became too cheap to meter by application of 33% more generation?

Functionally they could get there by just building a few more reactors.

The “just” word is doing a lot of work here and masking multiple billion euro investments, decades long planning and build projects, risk and opportunity cost. How about instead we “just” invest in grid scale and distributed battery storage and double down on wind and solar?
