- RaitoBezarius 5y agoSure, 2% (1765MW) of France's production is coal at the moment. It does not matter that plants are in maintenance, that is the normal state of complex systems like nuclear plants and a very desirable one. Sure, we could do better and close the last two coal factories to get 0% of coal modulo imports. That is still very different from 0% of nuclear. :)
