Ever heard of project Hercules? It basically consist of chopping off EDF in bite-size pieces to satisfy the appetites of the European commission on competition and the free market. To some extent that has already been done, with the "old" fully state-owned EDF having been chopped into Enedis and EDF, and this will continue. Stating that "Full clean-up and decommissioning costs are always included upfront in new nuclear projects" is problematic considering that it has never been done, and the cost of storing by-products is made extraordinarily opaque with a combination of private actors (Orano for example) that are ridden with corruption issues. Also, it is just completely wrong that the cost of electricity takes all this into account. Let's say that there is a lot of debate around the issue :)
