It's difficult to work out the cost of nuclear in France because the electricity industry is so intertwined with the state. For example, how much does their insurance cost? I bet they're effectively insured by state which doesn't show up in the figures. Also, the only country in the world that actually has a long-term solution for nuclear waste is Finland. To their credit, the Finns have built a storage facility that can remain intact for the necessary 10,000 years. The French have no long term nuclear waste storage, they're just kicking the can down the road, as is every other country except Finland.
