Ah, the good old days when you could legally fly over French
Nuclear power stations; now they were really good reliable thermal sources! Nowadays rumour has it that some sites have ground-to-air missiles as part of their defence; they all have exclusion zones. The reason why so little coal is burned in France is that 85+% of French power is nuclear (that's what it says on my electricity bill). The only reason that some power is solar/wind generated is that the French do not want to be seen as the most non- Green country in Europe. France has the capability to be 100% nuclear, it just doesn't want to be as not everyone is convinced that Nuclear is Green/Renewable. I will try the Vinon solar array, never noticed it to be good or reliable but that's probably just my crap thermal technique. When ETA gets going there might be a huge exclusion zone down there to spoil the fun. And here's yet another reason to be anti-nuclear power: being mostly on rivers I'd guess they are near impossible to defend against terrorists. |
