Nuclear is nearly dead, the last reactors under construction in the EU are massively over budget and riddled with technical problems.
The EPR (Flamanville 3) aimed to be safer than any previous reactor, but as of 2016 the project is three times over budget and years behind schedule. In September 2015 EDF announced that the estimated costs had escalated to €10.5 billion, and the start-up of the reactor was delayed to the fourth quarter of 2018.

Hinkley Point: UK approves nuclear plant deal. The government has approved a new £18bn nuclear power station in the UK after imposing "significant new safeguards" to protect national security.
The government has not altered the guaranteed payment of £92.50 per megawatt hour for electricity generated. It will fall to £89.50 if the new nuclear power at Sizewell is built. Mr Gardiner said it was "too high a price" and it should have been renegotiated.
