From Finland pov they paid 5.5billion, the rest is on Areva since they had lost the knowledge/expertise on how to build.

Deploying such a high number of wind turbine might not be so easy since usually nobody wants them close by and even if Finland is vast not all space is probably suitable.

Nuclear is far from perfect but at least it’s low co2 and once built cost are usually stable (uranium price is negligeable).

In addition, there are restrictions on the erection of wind turbines in the east due to defense reasons.
