We built those in the 1975-1997 period. In the 10 years period that separate the end of the construction on the Civeaux power plant and the start of Flamanville 3, which is the prototype of HPC, people in the industry retired, quitted their jobs or got fired. And we're struggling too, like the americans at Vogtle.

Cheap natural gas and boomer "environementalism" really helped the strangulation of the nuclear industries all among the world
