> Nuclear and renewables are like oil and water: they don't mix well. Funnily enough TVO (the owner and operator of Olkiluoto the site where his new reactor is at) also owns a bunch of hydro (and a little bit of wind). Though the hydro mostly exists as their own private backup generator. It has direct lines to the nuclear site so in the case they need to shutdown all the reactor and can't receive electricity from the grid to run the cooling systems they can get the electricity from that (they obviously also have onsite diesel generators too)
