Creators
Description
After a presentation of the EPR (European Pressurized Reactor) concept and a discussion of the associated risks for the French nuclear industry, the contributions analyse the role the EPRs would have within the next 30 years, discuss the lifetimes of nuclear plants and new reactor types, discuss the impact of nuclear policies on the greenhouse effect by 2050 at the national and world scale, discuss the EPR economic aspect (the KWh cost), and discuss the social implications of a choice between the EPR and renewable energies
