It's also good for France, which currently has a shortfall of electricity and is heating with electricity.

Doesn't France only have a shortfall because rivers were low during summer and Nuclear Reactors couldn't produce regular outputs?

The rivers won't be low in the winter.

Around half of the reactors are shut down for maintenance. Some scheduled, others for faults discovered during inspection. They expect to be back online only at the beginning of 2023.

They're down because of deferred maintenance, pushed back because of corona.
