French Nuclear energy has bailed out Europe when then the wind isnt blowing more often than not. They generate about 45GW on average from nuclear and its constant and pretty reliable. A big chunk of that, maybe 10-15 GW is for export, primarily to the UK, Germany and Italy. The fuel is relatively cheap so they can run their reactors flat out and sell at any price. Its also one of the reasons why they have one of the lowest carbon emmission rates for a major economy in the world.
