Electricity in France is almost 50% cheaper than in Germany and Denmark [1], so I guess nuclear was more cost effective. [1] https://strom-report.de/electricit

  From your article, the tax contribution amount for Germany, Denmark and France are 53.6%, 67.8% and 35.5%. If we take those numbers to get the pre-tax price it becomes 13.7, 12.8 and 11.4 cents per KWh respectively. So while France generates electricity a bit more cheaply than the other two the difference is not massive, and could be explained by economic disparity (GDP per capita is higher for both than France).
