🇫🇷 FRANCE CONNECTS FIRST NEW NUCLEAR REACTOR SINCE 1999 After 25 years of delays and cost overruns soaring from $3.3 billion to over $13 billion, EDF’s Flamanville-3 reactor is finally set to join the grid. This long-awaited addition will generate 1,650 megawatts of low-carbon electricity—enough to power 1.5 million homes—and strengthen France’s position as Europe’s nuclear energy leader. France’s 56 nuclear reactors already provide over two-thirds of its electricity, making it a key player in Western Europe’s energy stability. Source: Bloomberg
