Romania is also hydro, there are many hydrocentrals inside the country producing alot of energy

I'm italian and I believe my country decision to bad nuclear power to have been a big mistake, in the long run modern nuclear reactors are cheap on the long run and safe.

mmmm, how the try into categorizing nuclear = dangerous
I hope Romania build those two reactors and improve the lines to the Republic of Moldova - I would be glad to know that we use nuclear vs gas-generated.

PS: What every single article forgets - as we de-carbonize our energy consumption, we'll have to generate about 3 times the electricity we generate today, and ALL of it has to be clean.
That man talking about doubling the production.... it's easy to double when you have a small portion based on solar, try that with more than 30% - doable, but at whole different costs.

Nuclear is not the answer!
What about nuclear waste?
Nuclear waste is not green and dangerous for human health.
