Which leads to a shrinking nuclear share in their grid. It peaked at 4.6% in 2021, now down to 4.3%.

Compared to their renewable buildout the nuclear scheme is a token gesture to keep a nuclear industry alive if it would somehow end up delivering cheap electricity. And of course to enable their military ambitions.
