The long-held goal of “energy independence”—which is not to say that we did not import or export energy, but that we produced more energy than we used.

The Finnish example is a testament to how nuclear can play a part in solving the current energy crisis, with consumers still paying sky-high fees for energy in many European countries.

However, the hypocrisy is of course that when power prices were extremely high in 2022, hurting consumers - it was all Russia's fault; but now that prices are plummeting, operators can't have that and withdraw supply to hurt consumers.

Do you see a pattern here?
