Why would it have been better to turn back on the nuclear plant? What would be the specific advantages of nuclear plant back in operation versus battery project realisation? Or would battery + reactivated plant be the best overall solution?

Given how much renewable is already deployed, battery makes sense.

So I think both would be best.
