With the nuclear industry desperately scrambling to get its nuclear ‘renaissance’ off the ground, and the new fleet of third-generation reactors looking distinctly third-rate, it’s worth reminding yourself just where things are heading: costs are rocketing, expectations are plummeting.
Why not help yourself to a souvenir Greenpeace EPR counter for your own website or blog? It comes in two styles…
wide…
…and tall (as you can see at the top right of this page)…
Simply copy and paste the code into your own website or blog template.
How the counter works:
The accumulating costs above are based on the EUR 1.7 billion overrun announced by Areva/TVO plus an extra EUR 1.2 billion which will be needed to purchase electricity that has not been produced by Olkiluoto-3 since its projected start. These costs will eventually be paid for by Nordic electricity consumers and French taxpayers, either through higher bills for customers or through taxes. A taste of the future for those citizens of countries looking to adopt EPR for their own nuclear ‘renaissances’.
