There is also geopolitical aspect to it, where do you get the nuclear fuel from? In Czech Republic, we have two nuclear power plants, and AFAIK we are buying from Russia, but we are not overly happy about the dependency (although our dependency on russian natural gas is greater).

Although wind & solar is not that popular here either. I don't know what we will do.

Except when Söder closes the border (again) g Oh wait, he doesn't do the immigrant thing any more, and for a while he and his politics were actually making sense. Seems like that's over now, but had some (two? three?) good years.

In the end it doesn't matter where the panels are installed, as electricity is distributed throughout Europe, I guess?
