Then there are many legends that revolve around this ...
Okay, Christophe, still up against the "PV mafias" !!!
I'm not saying it's good, or bad for that matter ...
But at that time, there are only mafias in our mode of "real savings": those of cars (they are all green now, even Lexus!), Oil (I spend), nuclear (I pass), milk ("good for your health"), beer (I put it on for a laugh - but when we make super-designed but alcoholic drinks for young people, I don't laugh anymore), aviation (present the A380 as "green"), tobacco ... Mafias, only Mafias, thousands of Mafias !!!
Me, I prefer the Mafia PV (I'm still not obliged to have me) that the nuclear (Chernobyl, I had not asked, signed anything, I picked up anyway!) ... The risks are still not the same. Put everything in the same bag, we see or lead, in politics, with a number of extremists ...
I prefer the "non-recycling" of a PV than that of a nuclear power station !!!! (it is still only an aluminum frame, a plastic support and a glass plate + the pellets which are themselves silicon - very commonplace; silica = silicon oxide = sand or bottle glass !!!! - even if doped with some rare metals).
OK, you have to take care of it, as well as the TV, the computer, the washing machine, the dishwasher, etc ... Here, still mafias (you saw that all devices are A, or A +: all eco-friendly!).
No, Christophe, there you are no one in your crusade to the utmost, with arguments that pitiful! From questions that are good, though!
On the point I quoted above, I think you're wrong!
1) EdF (I speak for France) has been privatized. It is the consumer who will foot the bill! EdF has certainly "provisioned" these expenses (at least in principle and in part) ... It is only a conviction, I have no proof, but I think that the cost of nuclear electricity will rise sharply as soon as EdF has to reimburse the loans for the new plants and at the same time pay for the dismantling of the old ones. Well, it's in 20 or 30 years (before, they will pull them to the limit, push back the limits under the guise of a Théodule committee and too bad for the risks - that too, you have to know when you promote nuclear or related techniques - heat pumps for example).
2) It does not swell you a little to find yourself in the role of defender of EdF ???? (in any case, that's how I understand your "there are a lot of legends around that ..."). There is opacity in EdF's accounts, yes!
I read you more inspired on the subject (even if I was not 100% agree with you - but not 100% disagree either, but here I leave you on your way! .
