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?

Why would any commercial energy producer, of any variety (nuclear, coal, solar, wind, etc), put money into building excess capacity to the point that the marginal profit of extra production is zero?
